Middle East and Africa Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) Market Dynamics
Drivers
- The Rise In The Incidence Of Opioid Use Disorders (Opioid Dependency Medication)
Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is the use of medications in combination with counseling and behavioral therapies to provide a "whole-patient" approach to treating substance use disorders. Medications used in MAT are approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and MAT programs are clinically driven and tailored to meet each patient's needs.
For instance,
- The prevalence of high-risk opioid use (by injection or long duration/regular use) among adults (aged 15–64) in Middle East and Africa has been relatively stable for many years, with estimates of users standing at around 0.35 % of the EU population
As the companies are constantly engaged in research and developmental activities, the knowledge about the incidence of alcohol use disorder and opioid use disorders would help in finding novel solutions and that would aid in more collaborations and partnerships with market players in countries such as the U.S., Europe, and Asia-Pacific region. This signifies the increase in research and development-related investments for initiating generic medications in medication-assisted treatment (MAT), which is expected to boost the market growth.
- Use Of Reimbursement For Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)
Reimbursement may be available for medication-assisted treatment even if the medication does not have a valid status. If the medication does not have preferred level, the prescriber must obtain permission from the member's pharmacy benefit plan.
For instance,
- In February 2021, The American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) had developed the Reimbursement & Coding FAQs and Pearls for informational purposes on medication-assisted treatment
Extensive research accentuates that medications used in MAT are effective for the treatment of alcohol and opioid use disorders and that naloxone is effective for addressing acute opioid overdose. As Medicaid programs continue to assess the need of individuals with alcohol and opioid use disorders in their states, this report can be a resource. Thus, this signifies the benefit of reimbursement coverage by Medicaid, which is expected to boost the growth of the global medication-assisted treatment (MAT) market.
Opportunities
- Strategic Initiative By Market Players
The demand for medication-assisted treatment has increased in the U.S., Middle East, and Africa owing to the timely treatment of chronic conditions. These favourable factors enhance the need for medications, and to achieve the market demand, minor and major market players are utilizing various strategies.
For instance,
- In April 2021, Adamis Pharmaceuticals Corporation with USWM announced the launch and availability of a high-dose ZIMHI injectable naloxone product to help combat opioid overdose deaths. The launch is expected to increase the product segment revenue, which will boost the market growth, and ZIMHI being made available at a discounted rate for first responders and community health organizations
These strategic initiatives by the market players, including acquisition, conferences, and focused segment product launches, are helping the companies grow and improve the company's product portfolios, ultimately leading to more revenue generation. Hence, these strategic initiatives by the market players provide an opportunity that is helping them to drive market growth.
Restraints/Challenges
- Side Effects Of Drugs Used In Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)
Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) involves using medications collated with counseling and behavioural therapies to provide a "whole-patient" approach as part of the comprehensive treatment strategy. Therefore, the present high cost is expected to show a descending trend. MAT is most effective for treating alcohol and opioid use disorders. However, specific side effects have been reported.
For instance,
- Methadone and buprenorphine, the generic medications, are chemically similar to opioids, so their side effects can be similar too. These may include constipation, drowsiness, and dizziness. Some people may experience more severe side effects
The adverse complications reported would lead to a decline in sales of the medicated opioid dependency medications, which would limit the sales of the medicines. In addition, it would affect the reliability of manufacturers involved in this market and hence be expected to restrain the market growth.
