The rise in sleep disorders, alcoholic and depression patients is set to boost the demand for gamma-hydroxybutyric acid. Limited substitutes of medicines for the treatment of cataplexy and narcolepsy could also generate enough leverage for market growth. The global gamma-hydroxybutyric acid market is forecast to witness absolute growth at a single-digit CAGR between 2020 and 2030.

Demand Surge from Pharmaceuticals is set to boost the Market

Pharmaceuticals and sports supplements are the two main applications of the gamma-hydroxybutyric acid market. Of which, pharmaceuticals has found attractive share in the global gamma-hydroxybutyric acid market owing to its utilization in exceptional amounts. The pharmaceutical segment is set to grow at a faster pace over the forecast period of 2020-2030. Followed by pharmaceuticals, sports supplement is set to grow at a nominal pace owing to the rising regulations over its utilization in supplements.

COVID-19 to shatter the Gamma-hydroxybutyric Acid Market

COVID-19 or Novel corona virus has not only shattered the movement of the people but also the production and trade of the major products in the market including gamma-hydroxybutyric acid products. Increased production of essentials and force majeure of inessential products has disrupted the gamma-hydroxybutyric acid market.

Demand shrink owing to the lockdown across the regions and shattered supply owing to the cease of trade of raw materials required to manufacture of gamma-hydroxybutyric acid. The market is set to remain the same till 2022 owing to the inflation across the regions. Gamma-hydroxybutyric acid prices are controlled by the state in most of the regions and prices are set to be least impacted by the demand fluctuations.

Demand declination over the period of FY2020-FY2022 is set to be observed owing to controlled production of inessential drugs as patients’ population in the group of cataplexy and narcolepsy are low compared to the COVID-19 patients. Therefore pharmaceutical companies priorities diversify and try to grab the market potential will lead to shrink in inessential drugs such as gamma-hydroxybutyric acid formulated medicines.

Gamma-hydroxybutyric Acid Market: Regional Outlook

From a regional perspective, North America holds the largest market share in the global gamma-hydroxybutyric acid market. Growing pharmaceutical production in the region especially neurological drug manufacturing has provided the immense potential for the region to provide thrust to the gamma-hydroxybutyric acid market. Moreover, growing healthcare investments also portray an image of investment in neurological medicines.

Top players in the gamma-hydroxybutyric acid market such as Patheon is positioned in this region. Followed by North America, Europe accounts for more than a quarter of the demand share of gamma-hydroxybutyric acid. Growing awareness of neuro-medicine in the region is set to bolster the gamma-hydroxybutyric acid demand over the forecast period.

Followed by Europe, East Asia accounts for less than a quarter of the demand share of gamma-hydroxybutyric acid. Region portrays a growing potential owing to lesser stringent policies compared to North America and Europe. South Asia & Oceania, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa account for nominal share owing to the limited utilization of gamma-hydroxybutyric acid in this region.

In the perspective of the prices, East Asia leads the market followed by South Asia & Oceania. High labor costs and raw material procurement costs in North America & Europe are set to provide a major set-back for the expansion of the gamma-hydroxybutyric acid market from the supply side.
