What are the leading drivers of growth in the prescription dermatological drugs market?
The rising incidence of skin, hair and nail disorders, such as eczema, psoriasis and acne, is anticipated to propel the prescription dermatological drugs market’s expansion. The surge in these dermatological conditions can be primarily attributed to increased exposure to environmental pollutants, changes in lifestyle, and heightened stress levels. Prescription dermatological drugs are essential in treating these conditions, offering specific treatments to reduce symptoms and enhance long-term skin health. As an example, Europe PubMed Central, a UK-based institution for biomedical research hosted by EMBL’s European Bioinformatics Institute reported in March 2022 that about 43.35% or approximately 185 million participants across twenty-seven European countries suffered from at least one skin condition. Fungal infections, atopic dermatitis, and acne were most prevalent among these. Therefore, the rising incidence of dermatological conditions is propelling the expansion of the prescription dermatological drugs market.
