The global Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) drugs market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period (2021-2027). GBS is a rare disorder that causes the body's immune system to attack nerves. The first sign of symptoms includes weakness and tingling in the extremities, however, these sensations can quickly spread which can paralyze the whole body. The major factor driving the market growth is the increasing prevalence of GBS. 

According to the Rare Disease Organization, GBS affects about one or two people each year in every 100,000 population. Additionally, as per the Centre for Diseases Control and Prevention (CDC), an estimated 3,000 to 6,000 people are diagnosed with GBS each year in the US. Moreover, as per the same source, GBS is more common in men and adults older than 50 in the US. Furthermore, 40% of the GBS are triggered by Campylobacter infection in the US. Hence, the rising prevalence of GBS is driving the demand for the GBS drugs for treatment which in turn is driving the growth of the market.
