Report Scope and Market Segmentation

Market Definition

Pseudobulbar affect (PBA) is a condition marked by uncontrollable and inappropriate laughing or crying. People with specific neurological diseases or injuries, which may impair the brain's regulation of emotion, are more likely to have pseudobulbar affect. Pseudobulbar affect (PBA) treatment aims to minimize the severity and frequency of emotional outbursts. Antidepressants, including tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), can help lower the severity and frequency of your PBA episodes. Antidepressants used to treat PBA are usually prescribed in lower doses than those used to treat depression. The only medicine approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat PBA is Nuedexta.

Pseudobulbar Treatment Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Increasing prevalence of pseudobulbar affect

The rising prevalence of pseudobulbar affect is estimated to enhance the pseudobulbar treatment market's growth. Stroke, multiple sclerosis (MS), Parkinson's disease, traumatic brain injury, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and Alzheimer's disease are the various neurological conditions which lead to the emergence of pseudobulbar affect. PBA develops when there is a lack of or loss of voluntary control over emotional responses. A lack of inhibitory or regulatory control over emotional expression is presumably caused by many brain regions along a cerebro-ponto-cerebellar axis. The loss or lack of control over emotional expression may result from disruption of neuronal (nerve) pathways from certain parts of the brain to the cerebellum. Serotonin, norepinephrine, dopamine, and glutamate, among other neurotransmitters, are hypothesized to play a role in PBA.

• Increasing investment for healthcare infrastructure

Another significant factor influencing the growth rate of pseudobulbar treatment market is the rising healthcare expenditure which helps in improving its infrastructure. Also, various government organizations aims to improve the healthcare infrastructure by increasing funding and this will further influence the market dynamics.
