Growing Prevalence of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Disease Leveraging the Global Rivastigmine Transdermal Patches Market

Published: Jul 2022

The global rivastigmine transdermal patches market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period (2022-2028). Parkinson's disease (PD) and Alzheimer's disease are both neurological conditions caused by neurodegeneration (gradual damage to brain cells). Globally, disability and mortality due to Parkinson’s disease are increasing faster than any other neurological disorder. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the prevalence of PD has doubled in the past 25 years. Global estimates in 2019 showed over 8.5 million individuals with PD. Further, according to Mayo Clinics, globally around 50 million people suffer from dementia, and between 60% and 70% are estimated to have Alzheimer's disease. Such diseases have a major impact on the quality of life of both the patient and the caregiver. Given the short life expectancy following a diagnosis of AD, and the progressive nature of the disease, treatments that stabilize symptoms or delay their progression have important benefits on the quality of life for patients and their caregivers. Cholinesterase inhibitors constitute one of the mainstays of treatment for such diseases. However, gastrointestinal side effects, difficulty accessing therapeutic doses, and poor patient compliance have been identified as barriers to effective treatment with these substances.
