Inkwood Research estimates that the market for IBS-C drug will grow with an anticipated CAGR of 9.21% during the forecast period and will reach revenue of $23.49 billion by 2028. The base year considered for the market study is 2019, and the forecasted period is between 2020 and 2028.

The global IBS-C drug market growth is propelled by the following factors:

  • Modern dietary habits taking a toll on the health
  • IBS can be a heritability issue
  • Availability of effective drugs in the market

Diet management for a person with IBS involves a little extra time, but is often worth the effort. Poor dietary habits are one of the major reasons for irritable bowel syndrome. Dietary habits of people are changing, which is a major cause of IBS these days. Due to highly prevailing modern dietary habits, there is a rise in the number of people suffering from IBS. Some of the dietary habits leading to constipation are intake of foods such as insoluble fiber, grains, milk, fried foods, etc. Excessive intake of caffeine and alcohol increases excretion, and thus, urination of water can again lead to IBS.

Over the counter is the largest and the fastest-growing domain in the prescription type segment in the global IBS-C Drug market, with around 61.17% market share in 2019. OTC drugs are medications consumed without seeking treatment from doctors. There is a huge demand for over the counter drugs in the US, UK, France, Spain, Germany, China, India, and Indonesia. However, precautions must be taken before taking any such drugs. Side effects such as nausea, stomach pain, swelling of the face, tightness in throat, diarrhea, gas, vomiting, dry mouth, running nose, cough, fever, and headache, and so on may be caused. Several kinds of OTC laxatives are available in the market. OTC fiber products such as psyllium (brand name Metamucil), polycarbophil (FiberCon), and methylcellulose (Citrucel), are usually adopted for irritable bowel syndrome constipation. Moreover, another option is the milk of magnesia, which targets an upset stomach and constipation. These products work by stimulating the bowel. They generally take a few hours to take effect.

 On the other hand, the global IBS-C drug market growth is restricted by strict FDA regulations, unawareness, and ignorance, among people. The industry suffers from strict regulations from the FDA, and other regulatory authorities, which leads to many of the drugs either called off from the market or not approved by the FDA. This is due to some serious after-effects of the drugs used to get rid of Irritable Bowel Syndrome. The number of drugs approved by the FDA is also very less in number, for example, Amitiza and Lotronex. Several drugs available in the market are either called back from the market or have a very restricted use under strict medical surveillance. This is due to the severe side effects shown by these drugs. Some of the drugs in the market even showed a lethal effect due to which they were called back. Due to these results, the FDA has made very strict rules to approve a drug that can be sold in the market, and this is acting as a very strong restraint for the market growth.
