Growing Consumption of Tobacco Fuels North America Transdermal Medical Patch Market
In the US, tobacco is one of the significant causes of disease, disability, and death. According to the data published by CDC in 2021, an estimated 28.3 million adults smoke cigarettes in the US. Nearly 1,600 people (younger than 18 years) smoke their first cigarette every day in the US, and nearly half a million Americans die prematurely due to secondhand smoke exposure. As per the same source, e-cigarettes are the most frequently used tobacco products among high and middle school students. CDC also states that the US spends more than US$ 225 billion on medical care each year to treat smoking-related diseases in adults.
Nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) has proven to help people seeking to quit smoking. It makes use of nicotine patches that deliver modest nicotine dosages to relieve cravings. Nicotine is progressively absorbed through the skin once nicotine patches are applied. Smokers with a greater dependence level can use the most robust patches, while those with a lower dependence level can use a lesser dosage. The critical advantage of nicotine patches over acute NRT formulations (gum, nasal spray, oral inhaler, and tablet) is the simplicity of compliance, rather than consuming a medicine throughout the day.
Thus, the increasing consumption of tobacco leads to increasing demand for nicotine patches, thereby driving the growth of the transdermal medical patch market.
