Therapeutic Class- Segment Analysis

The non-Opioids segment held the largest share in the Topical Pain Relief in 2019 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.41% during the forecast period 2020-2025.This is owing to the high preferability and availability of non-opioids drugs. Nonopioids are further segmented into   Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug,   Methyl Salicylate,   Capsaicin, and Lidocaine. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic that works by causing temporary numbness or loss of feeling in the skin and mucous membranes. Topical non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs provide good levels of pain relief in acute conditions such as sprains, strains, and overuse injuries, probably similar to that provided by oral nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. The tricyclic antidepressants most commonly used in the treatment of neuropathic pain are amitriptyline, imipramine, nortriptyline, and desipramine, as they all are potent norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors. Capsaicin topical is used for temporary relief of muscle or joint pain caused by strains, sprains, arthritis, bruising, or backaches. Capsaicin topical is also used to treat nerve pain (neuralgia) in people who have had herpes zoster or shingles. Cannabinoid receptors and endocannabinoids are present in pain circuits from the peripheral sensory nerve endings up to the brain. Cannabinoid receptor agonists modulate nociceptive thresholds by regulating neuronal activity, but they also relieve pain by acting on non-nervous tissues. The Non-Opioids is set to be the highest growing segment and is estimated to register highest CAGR during the forecast period 2020-2025.
