What Are The Key Driving Factors For The Growth Of The Antidepressants Market?
Around the world, the increasing instances of mental health problems are the primary reason for the expansion of the antidepressant medication industry, as these drugs are often turned to by patients battling depression, anxiety, and other psychological conditions. Treatments for depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, childhood bed-wetting, major depressive disorder, severe anxiety disorder, bipolar disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and social phobia often involve the use of antidepressants.

What Are The Upcoming Trends Of Antidepressants Market In The Globe?
A key trend in the antidepressant market revolves around the treatment of resistant depression. The new remedy making waves is Ketamine, which is typically employed as an anesthetic during surgeries. This drug stimulates the growth of glutamate, in turn triggering the brain to forge fresh neural connections. It not only makes the brain more flexible and capable of creating new routes, but it also aids in the generation of more positive thoughts and behaviors. For example, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has given the green light to a new ketamine-based depression remedy known as esketamine, which constitutes half of the ketamine compound. This medicine needs to be delivered as a nasal spray with the patient concurrently taking another antidepressant. Furthermore, its prescription is exclusive to those patients who have tried, but failed, with two other antidepressants.
