#What External and Internal Drivers Are Contributing to the Growth of the Small Molecule Drug Discovery Market?#_x000D_
The surge in chronic illnesses is anticipated to propel the expansion of the small molecule drug discovery market. Chronic diseases are ailments that persist for a year or more, disrupt daily life, require constant medical attention, or a combination of these factors. Small molecule medications can adequately manage chronic diseases such as HIV, cancer, infections, heart disease, and kidney disease and are often more affordable for those suffering from these conditions. Subsequently, the increase in chronic illnesses is likely to enhance the growth of the small molecule drug discovery market. For example, a study by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), a US biomedical research institution, predicts a 99.5% increase in the number of Americans aged 50 and above with at least one chronic disease, increasing from 71.522 million in 2020 to 142.66 million in 2050. Furthermore, there will likely be a 91.16% surge in multimorbidity cases, escalating from 7.8304 million in 2020 to 14.968 million in 2050. As a result, the surge in chronic disease cases is stimulating the growth of the small molecule drug discovery market._x000D_
