Insomnia Treatment Drugs Market Fundamentals
Insomnia refers to a sleep disorder in which an individual experiences difficulty in falling or remaining asleep, which potentially causes serious health problems. According to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), adult individuals aged 18 to 60 needs at least 7+ more hours of sleep. Insomnia affects health, body energy level, work performance, mood, and overall quality of life.
Researches have found that insufficient sleep is linked to increased risks of developing type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, notably, hypertension, stroke, coronary heart disease, and irregular heartbeats. Sometimes, individuals experience acute insomnia that may last for days or weeks, and others may experience long-term (chronic) insomnia that may last for a month or more.
There are two types of insomnia: primary and secondary. Primary insomnia related to sleep problems is not linked to any other health condition or problem. Secondary insomnia is related to sleeping trouble due to underlying health conditions (such as asthma, arthritis, cancer depression, or heartburn), pain, medication, or substance use (alcohol or narcotics).

Insomnia Treatment Drugs Market Dynamics
The revenue growth of the global insomnia treatment drugs market is driven by rising stress-related events, such as long hours of working, mental health, sensitivity to light and sound, changes in sleeping schedule, family history of insomnia, growing geriatric population, and increasing awareness about various treatment options.
However, continuous usage of insomnia drugs may cause addiction, dependency, and higher adoption of generic products that are available at a cheaper price negatively affecting the revenue growth of the insomnia treatment drugs market. Availability of alternatives to insomnia drugs, such as antipsychotics, tricyclic antidepressants, chloral derivatives, and herbal supplements, is restraining the market revenue growth.
