In addition, increasing consciousness regarding the disease and growing demand for advanced therapeutics and diagnostics are other factors expected to boost narcolepsy therapeutics market growth. Furthermore, increasing demands for appropriate treatment of the disorder, followed by growing R&D activities, is anticipated to boost the industry growth.
Narcolepsy is a chronic nerve disease associated with sleep paralysis, hypnagogic hallucinations, Excessive Daytime Sleepiness (EDS), fragmented night sleep, and cataplexy. Narcolepsy is the brain's incapability to control sleep-wake phases. The sleep attack can occur during any activity, such as eating, playing, conversing, or driving. Individuals with such disorders have a strong impulse to sleep and lack energy.
Narcolepsy generally triggers due to a lack of brain chemicals known as hypocretin, inherited conditions, mental illness, hormonal changes, immune-system dysfunction, infections, trauma, or stress. Approximately 10% of people having narcolepsy with cataplexy partake in a genetic tendency. Narcolepsy can arise in both women and men at any age. Such disorders typically occur in the early twenties and last throughout life.
The pandemic has disrupted the supply chain of narcolepsy drugs, leading to shortages in some areas. The lockdowns and travel restrictions have made it difficult for pharmaceutical companies to transport their products to various countries, resulting in deficiencies in some areas. Additionally, the closure of clinical trial sites and the diversion of resources to COVID-19 research have slowed the development of new therapies for narcolepsy.
In addition, pandemic also affected the demand for narcolepsy drugs. With people working from home and socializing less, the need for narcolepsy medication has decreased for some patients. However, for others, the pandemic has increased their stress levels, which can exacerbate narcolepsy symptoms. The mental health effects of the pandemic have also increased the prevalence of sleep disorders, including narcolepsy, which may lead to increased demand for narcolepsy medications in the long term.

Industry Dynamics
Growth Drivers
The narcolepsy therapeutics market is primarily driven by the geriatric population's need for treatment, the increase in narcoleptic illnesses, changing lives, and the link between stress and narcolepsy condition. The market is anticipated to be driven in the future years by higher research efforts, an increase in healthcare expenditure, and the existence of better medical infrastructure.
In the upcoming years, market development may also be significantly influenced by the market competitor’s clearance and commercialization of novel medications. For instance, in March 2021, Avadel's New Drug Application (NDA) for FT218, approved by the Food and Drug Administration an experimental, once-daily formulation of sodium oxybate used to treat excessive daytime sleepiness and cataplexy in people with narcolepsy.
Moreover, technological advancements in diagnosis and treatment, the availability of advanced diagnostic tools and technologies, and the development of novel and effective therapies are driving the growth of the market. The use of polysomnography, multiple sleep latency testing (MSLT), and other diagnostic tools has led to an increase in the number of diagnosed cases, which is driving the demand for narcolepsy medications.
In April 2021 study was carried out by Neurotherapeutics and was titled "A practical guide to the pharmacological and behavioral therapy of Narcolepsy, a CNS stimulant, modafinil, has get approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and the FDA for adult narcolepsy patients and its shows potential effect and have a low side effect.
The narcolepsy therapeutics market is a relatively small and niche market. Still, it is expected to grow in the coming years due to increased awareness of the condition and the development of new treatments.
