How will Expansion of Pharmaceutical Industry Boost Barbituric Acid Market?

Over the years, rising prevalence of various diseases and increasing consumer healthcare spending have triggered the growth of pharmaceuticals industry and this trend is likely to further escalate during the forecast period on account of increasing healthcare awareness among people. Driven by this demand for barbituric acid is slated to grow at a considerable pace.

Barbituric acid itself is not pharmaceutically active. However, it is being used as a raw material used for making a wide range of barbiturates. Rising prevalence of diseases like insomnia and seizures along with growing usage of barbiturate drugs as hypnotics, anticonvulsants, sedatives, anesthetics and most importantly sleeping pills is projected to boost the growth of barbituric acid market during the forecast period.

Globally there are millions of people who suffer from insomnia, anxiety and several other sleeping disorders. For instance, according to the American Sleep Apnea Association, around 50 million Americans already suffer from over 80 different sleep disorders while another 20 to 30 million suffer intermittent sleep problems each year. This is creating huge demand for barbiturates which will eventually foster the growth of barbituric acid market in the future

Similarly, rising usage of barbituric acid for laboratory synthesis of riboflavin (vitamin B2) and minoxidil will create lucrative growth opportunities for the leading barbituric acid manufacturing companies during the forthcoming years.

In addition to this, growing adoption of barbituric acid as dye intermediate used in textile industry will further expand the barbituric acid market size in the future.

Which Factors are Expected to Obstruct the Barbituric Acid Market Growth?

Despite multiple applications of barbituric acid, there are certain factors that are likely to restrain the growth of barbituric acid market. One such factor is the presence of stringent regulations pertaining to the manufacturing of barbiturates drugs.

As barbiturates have numerous side effects, they are being strictly monitored by the Drug Abuse Prevention and Control Act. This is negatively impacting the market growth to some extent.
