Opioids, used medically for pain relief, have analgesic and central nervous system depressant effects as well as the potential to cause euphoria. Opioid use disorder (OUD) can involve misuse of prescribed opioid medications, use of diverted opioid medications, or use of illicitly obtained heroin. OUD is typically a chronic, relapsing illness, associated with significantly increased rates of morbidity and mortality. In patients with OUD who have achieved abstinence through medically supervised withdrawal or by other means, maintenance treatment aims to prevent relapse. Options for long-term maintenance treatment include an opioid agonist (i.e., methadone or buprenorphine), an opioid antagonist (naltrexone), or non-medication, abstinence-based treatment.
Increasing incidences of pain associated with chronic diseases such as cancer, rising cases of opioid addiction, and increasing adoption of inorganic growth strategies by key players in order to expand their product portfolio in the global opioid use disorder market. The general population nowadays suffers from a wide range of chronic and severe health conditions, such as pain arising from injuries or cancer. They often result in chronic pain and in such cases, patients are given painkillers, especially opioids. While they help in lowering pain, they can cause addiction among patients. The abrupt discontinuation or higher dependency on these drugs leads to withdrawal symptoms. This further increases the chances of fatal consequences, such as deaths.
For instance, The American Psychiatric Association (APA), stated that approximately 72,000 Americans died due to opioid overdose in 2017. These factors are likely to drive the opioid use disorder market growth in the near future.
