Antiepileptic Drug Market

Epilepsy is a neurological disorder in which brain activity becomes abnormal, causing seizures or periods of unusual behavior, sensations, and sometimes loss of awareness. Anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs) work by changing the levels of chemicals in your brain. They do not cure epilepsy but can stop seizures from happening. Thus, the growing development of new drugs coupled with the increasing efforts in the research and development of more specific and effective drugs is driving the global antiepileptic drug market. Furthermore, as per the World Health Organization (WHO), around 50 million people worldwide have epilepsy, making it one of the most common neurological diseases globally. Additionally, increasing incidences of other neurological disorder and prenatal injuries are the factors that contribute to the surging epileptic cases and induces the demand for better antiepileptic treatments.

Thus, the Global Antiepileptic Drug Market is projected to expand significantly with a CAGR of around 2% from 2021 to 2027.

However, the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and lockdowns in various countries across the globe have impacted the financial status of businesses across all sectors. The private healthcare sector is one of the sectors which has been majorly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Many research centers have decided to freeze new trials and have stopped inpatient studies. Different pharmaceutical companies have also decided to delay the start of new clinical trials, suspended enrollment in some trials, and postponed the initiation of new sites in the case of trials continuing enrollment. This impacted the market negatively.
