GBI Research finds that the substance abuse therapeutics market in the top seven markets was valued at $8.8 billion in 2011, increasing at a CAGR of 4.9% during the review period 2004-2011. The market is projected to witness moderate growth of 5.3% during the 2011-2018 forecast period to reach $12.7 billion. The moderate growth of the market can be attributed to the presence of generics in the market, low compliance with therapy due to the nature of addiction and the lack of innovative products in the pipeline. However, indications such as cocaine addiction, which currently have no approved products, are expected to see entries to the market and high-priced products such as Champix for smoking cessation will not see patent expiry in the forecast period.
