Global Central Nervous System (CNS) Stimulant Drugs Market: Rising Demand to Legalize Cannabis Worldwide
The market has witnessed an increase in demand to legalize cannabis worldwide. Medicinal cannabis is a therapy that has gathered much attention in recent years. According to researchers, synthetic cannabinoids such as nabilone and dronabinol may have benefits for people with sleep apnea due to the modulatory effects that these drugs have on serotonin-mediated apneas. Similarly, cannabis is used in attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder because it increases the dopamine level in the brain. Therefore, the pharmacological advantages of cannabis are spurring the demand for the legalization of cannabis worldwide. In June 2019, Illinois became the first state in the US to legalize the recreational purchase and use of cannabis. Thus, such initiations are expected to boost market growth during the forecast period.
“Apart from the rising demand to legalize cannabis worldwide, two other factors that are expected to boost market growth during the forecast period are R&D of stimulants to treat attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder and the increasing repurposing of drugs,” says a senior analyst at Technavio.
