The global local anesthesia drugs market size is anticipated to reach USD 6.45 billion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., registering a 3.7% CAGR during the forecast period. The rising number of surgical procedures across the globe, including cosmetic surgeries, dental procedures, and plastic surgeries, is driving the growth of local anesthetics.
There has been a considerable increase in the number of surgical procedures requiring post-operative pain relief and this trend is expected to continue throughout the forecast period. Roughly, 65.0% of total surgical procedures require post-operative pain management. This is likely to boost the demand for local anesthesia drugs.
The introduction of new and effective drugs such as levobupivacaine, articaine, and ropivacaine is also driving the growth of the local anesthesia drugs market across the globe. Rising healthcare expenditure in developing countries is expected to result in an increase in the number of surgeries performed in countries such as India, China, and Brazil. This is likely to contribute to market growth in the region.
