What are the leading drivers of growth in the drug screening market?
The increase in drug and alcohol consumption globally is predicted to boost the expansion of the drug screening market. Drug addiction, defined as a disease that impacts a person’s brain and behavior making it difficult to regulate the use of legal or illegal drugs or medications, considers substances like alcohol, marijuana, and nicotine as drugs. With the growth in drug and alcohol addiction, the risk of disease also rises, hence stimulating the necessity for drug screening. For example, in 2022, the high instance of drug and alcohol misuse remained a major global issue. The National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) reveals that 13.5% of Americans aged 12 and above consumed drugs in the past month, indicating a 3.8% yearly growth. The study further illustrates that about 59.277 million people or 21.4% of individuals aged 12 and above have abused illegal drugs or improperly used prescription drugs over the past year. Increased drug risks due to the pandemic are concerning, with reported youth cannabis intake rising up to four times in some parts of the world. Therefore, the upsurge in drug and alcohol usage is pushing the growth of the drug screening market during the forecast period.
