Antipsychotic Drugs Overview
Antipsychotics are psychiatric medications used to treat various psychotic symptoms such as delusions, hallucinations, or mania symptoms. Antipsychotic drugs are administered in various ways, the most common of which is orally, in liquid, or in tablet form. Certain antipsychotic medications are also prescribed as depot injections. This route of administration slowly releases the medication in a slow-acting form, and the injection is given every few weeks. Antipsychotic medications are used to regulate brain circuit functions that control perception, thinking, and mood.
Based on their specific activity and neurotransmitter receptor affinity, antipsychotic drugs are classified as conventional antipsychotics, 2nd-generation antipsychotics (SGAs), and 3rd-generation antipsychotics. SGAs have several advantages in terms of efficacy and minimal side effects. According to recent research studies, new antipsychotic drugs such as muscarinic agonists and trace amines with novel actions, SGAs, account for most antipsychotics prescribed in the United States.
Antipsychotic Drugs Market Insights
North America dominated the global antipsychotic drugs market in 2021 and will continue to do so during the forecast period of 2022–2027. This can be attributed to the region's increasing demand for antipsychotic drugs due to the region's increasing prevalence of various mental disorders. Furthermore, the increasing activities by the key players in the region will, in turn, increase the demand for the product during the forecast period. For instance, in May 2022, Beckley Psytech Limited and Lophora ApS announced the companies had entered into a research and development collaboration. Under the terms of the agreement, Beckley Psytech will jointly fund continuing development of the Lophora pipeline and collaborate broadly on R&D.
In addition, the country's market players are constantly focusing on the development of novel drugs to treat mental disorders indications with antipsychotic drugs, as well as various strategies to develop better drugs with fewer side effects. As a result, the antipsychotic drugs market in the region is likely to be driven by this. For example, Zydus Lifesciences' US subsidiary Zydus Pharmaceuticals (USA) Inc. received final approval from the US Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) in September 2022 to market Cariprazine Capsules, USP 1.5 mg, 3 mg, 4.5 mg, and 6 mg. Cariprazine is an atypical antipsychotic that is used to treat schizophrenia as well as acute manic or mixed episodes associated with bipolar I disorder.

Antipsychotic Drugs Market Dynamics
According to the World Health Organization (WHO) 2022, 1 in every 8 people, or 970 million people worldwide, had a mental disorder in 2019, with anxiety and depressive disorders being the most common. In 2019, the WHO estimated that nearly 40 million people had bipolar disorder and nearly 40 million people, including children and adolescents, had conduct disorder. Thus, based on the statistics presented above, it is possible to conclude that the prevalence of mental disorders is very high around the world, increasing the demand for antipsychotic drugs used to treat the disorders, as mentioned earlier.
In addition, numerous research and development initiatives aimed at developing these medications have been launched in recent years. R&D is carried out to improve the safety and efficacy of such drugs. Furthermore, increased awareness resulted in increased adoption of these drugs in key countries, significantly increasing antipsychotic drugs market growth in key countries.
Moreover, antipsychotic drug clinical trials are expected to advance the drug development process significantly. Thus, rising awareness, combined with new launches based on innovative R&D are expected to drive market growth for antipsychotic drugs between 2022–2027.
However, the high cost of drug development and launch, addiction caused by antipsychotic drugs, and the stringent regulatory approval process may stall the antipsychotic drugs market growth.
Additionally, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the antipsychotic drugs market was moderately impacted. During the early stages of the pandemic, sales of antipsychotics plummeted due to strict lockdown rules, disruption in manufacturing, and supply. However, the government classified medicines and drugs as emergency products, which increased their demand or sales. Furthermore, the involvement of online pharmacies increased the sale of many over-the-counter medicines, impacting the antipsychotic drugs market.
