Insights into the Scopolamine Market

Scopolamine is an alkaloid drug derived from the plant henbane that is used to treat nausea and motion sickness as well as dilate the pupil in ophthalmic procedures. Scopolamine belongs to the anticholinergic drug class. It works by inhibiting the activity of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which stimulates the area of the brain responsible for nausea and vomiting, as well as involuntary muscle movement in the lungs, gastrointestinal tract, and urinary tract.

Scopolamine is also used as a sedative or hypnotic in medicine, and it is sometimes combined with morphine to relieve pain. Scopolamine has also been used 'off-label' to treat depression, asthma, smoking cessation, and nausea associated with chemotherapy. The rising prevalence of motion sickness is expected to propel the Scopolamine Market forward. One of the most important factors in the development of motion sickness is psychological stress. Psychological stress has an effect on intestinal motility, sensitivity, permeability, and secretion, which is linked to mucosal immune activation and changes in the central nervous system.

According to a 2016 Buscopan IBS Relief survey, stress was the cause of gastrointestinal pain for seven out of ten patients. Thus, increasing populations suffering from stress and anxiety disorder are expected to fuel the growth of the Global Scopolamine Market. The use of scopolamine in Alzheimer's disease may prove useful as a diagnostic or staging test in the evaluation of the cholinergic system in dementia, providing opportunities for researchers to explore the application of these drugs for other neurological disorders, driving market growth over the forecast period.

However, illegal drug abuse in various regions may limit the growth of the Scopolamine Market during the forecast period. This drug, for example, is more common and widely available in Colombia, where it is used to induce victims to commit sexual assaults and robberies. Furthermore, the low-cost online availability of these drugs, which are frequently abused by sexual predators and robbers in various European regions (in the UK, scopolamine can be purchased online for only US$ 12.8), may result in stringent regulations against the manufacturing and marketing of this drug in the near future, affecting the growth of the market for scopolamine.
