Guillain-Barre Syndrome Market Share

Global Guillain-Barre Syndrome Market Overview

Guillain-Barre Syndrome Market Size was valued at USD 0.23 Billion in 2023. The Global Guillain-Barre Syndrome industry is projected to grow from USD 0.311 Billion in 2024 to USD 0.60 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.36% during the forecast period (2024 - 2032).

Guillain-Barre Syndrome is a rare immune system disorder. In this medical condition, the patients’ immune system attacks their nervous system. The causative agents of the Guillain-Barre Syndrome are unknown. However, it is illuminated that the disease is often accompanied by infections including respiratory infection and stomach flu. The weakness of legs, difficulty in breathing, low or high blood pressure, difficulty with eye or facial movements is some of the common symptoms of the Guillain-Barre Syndrome.

The increasing prevalence of the Guillain-Barre Syndrome is expected to be one of the major drivers for the market growth during the forecast period. According to a study published by the PLOS One Journal in 2017, Guillain-Barre Syndrome is amongst some of the most common types of serious acute paralytic neuropathy. Moreover, it was estimated that about 100,000 new cases of the disease are reported, annually across the globe.

Additionally, growing geriatric population and increasing prevalence of chikungunya boost the market growth. According to the World Health Organization in 2016, about 349 936 suspected and 146,914 laboratory confirmed cases of chikungunya were reported to the PAHO regional office. Countries that reported most of the cases were Brazil (265,000 suspected cases), Bolivia, and Colombia (19,000 suspected cases). However, lack of awareness for the disease, absence of any definitive treatment, and low per capita healthcare expenditures in the middle- and low-income countries are estimated to restrain the market growth during the projected period.
