Epilepsy Market
As per the Epilepsy foundation,
approximately 3.4 million people live with epilepsy in the United States, and
over 150,000 new cases are diagnosed each year.
Among the European countries, the
United Kingdom had the highest diagnosed Epileptic prevalent population with
443,603 cases, followed by Germany, with Spain accounting for the lowest
Epileptic prevalence.
The current Epilepsy treatment
includes a combination of medications, diet therapy, and surgery. The type of
drugs or therapies prescribed to Epileptic patient depends on the severity of
the case.
The commonly used epilepsy
treatment therapy is Anti-Epileptic Medications (AEDs). The early treatment
choice for almost all patients with multiple seizures is AEDs. The medications
effectively prevent and control the seizures.
Anticonvulsant therapy is also
considered after two unprovoked epileptic seizures. The medication prescribed
by the medical practitioner could be monotherapy or a combinational therapy
including two or more products as a medication.
According to DelveInsight’s studies, the Anti-Epileptic Medications (AEDs) are classified as Sodium Channel
Modulators, GammaAminobutyric Acid (GABA) Receptor Modulator, Calcium Channel
Blockers, Receptor Blockers, and others.
The current epilepsy therapies
belong to these classes amongst which sodium channel modulators occupies the
maximum share followed by calcium channel blockers, and GABA Receptor
Modulators. The least used class involves calcium and sodium channel blocker
and Cannabidiol.
The total Epilepsy market size,
as calculated by DelveInsight, was approximately USD 2,984 Million in 2017.
