Alzheimer's disease treatment refers to medications that are designed and developed to manage Alzheimer's disease. These treatments, which target the beta-amyloid protein and function as immunotherapies, help reduce amyloid plaques-brain lesions associated with Alzheimer's disease. As the disease progresses, it leads to significant memory loss, and affected individuals may lose the ability to perform everyday activities.
The primary types of drugs used in Alzheimer's disease treatment include cholinesterase inhibitors and NMDA receptor antagonists. Cholinesterase inhibitors, also known as acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, are a class of medications that prevent the normal breakdown of acetylcholine. The various drug classes include cholinergic agents, memantine, combination drugs, AChE inhibitors, and immunoglobulins, and they involve multiple therapeutic options such as cholinesterase inhibitors, NMDA receptor antagonists, and other treatments.
Tariffs have affected the Alzheimer's disease treatment market by increasing costs for imported biologics, monoclonal antibodies, and combination drug formulations, disrupting supply chains and slowing market expansion. Segments such as immunoglobulins and combination therapies are most impacted, particularly in regions like North America and Europe, which rely on imports. On the positive side, tariffs have encouraged local manufacturing, domestic R&D investment, and development of cost-optimized treatment solutions.

The alzheimer's disease treatment market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $6.94 billion in 2025 to $7.37 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing prevalence of alzheimer's disease, aging global population, limited availability of effective therapies, growing awareness about cognitive disorders, rising healthcare infrastructure for neurological diseases.
The alzheimer's disease treatment market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $9.51 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to development of beta-amyloid targeted immunotherapies, expansion of monoclonal antibody treatments, increasing adoption of combination therapies, growth in home care and telemedicine for alzheimer's patients, investment in early detection and diagnostic biomarkers. Major trends in the forecast period include rising investment in immunotherapy and monoclonal antibodies, increased adoption of combination drugs targeting multiple pathways, expansion of early diagnosis and biomarker-based treatments, growing focus on cognitive function preservation and memory enhancement, integration of home-based care and remote patient monitoring for alzheimer's.
Government initiatives are anticipated to support the expansion of the Alzheimer's disease treatment market. A government initiative refers to a program or action undertaken by public authorities to address a specific issue, funded through sources such as taxes, grants, or donations. In the context of Alzheimer's disease treatment, these initiatives play an important role by supporting research activities, including clinical trials for new drugs and therapeutic approaches. For example, in April 2025, according to the American Medical Association, a US-based professional organization, U.S. health spending increased by 7.5% in 2023 to $4.9 trillion, or $14,570 per capita, exceeding the 4.6% growth recorded in 2022.
