The Neurodegenerative Disease Treatment Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 42,388.8 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 3.1% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.

Market Overview:
Neurodegenerative diseases are progressive disorders that involve the deterioration of neurons. Some neurodegenerative diseases include Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, and Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Currently, there is no cure available and available treatment options are aimed at managing symptoms of the disease and improving quality of life. Over time, neurodegenerative diseases can severely damage areas of the brain involved with thinking, memory, and muscle control. Effective treatment and management is important.

Market key trends:
One of the key trends expected to drive the growth of the neurodegenerative disease treatment market is the rising prevalence of Alzheimer's disease. According to the Alzheimer's Association, Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia, accounting for approximately 60-80% of dementia cases. The number of people with Alzheimer's disease is expected to double by the year 2050, with the total number expected to reach around 13.8 million in 2050. Additionally, the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease doubles every 5 years after the age of 65. With an aging global population, the prevalence of Alzheimer's disease is expected to rise exponentially in the coming years, driving the demand for effective treatment and management drugs for neurodegenerative diseases.
