Rising Prevalence of Plaque Psoriasis to Increase Demand for Treatment, Boosting Market

One of the major factor boosting the global psoriasis treatment market is the increasing prevalence of the disease itself. The World Health Organization states that the prevalence of psoriasis is estimated to vary between 0.09% to 11.0% across all nations. This ultimately means that psoriasis is a serious problem. Psoriasis can occur to anyone irrespective of age but is usually reported to occur to aged people between 50 to 70 years. The rising geriatric population and their vulnerability towards diseases such as psoriatic arthritis are factor propelling growth of the market.

Increase in prescription volume of the biologic products and favorable reimbursement policies by governments are also helping the market grow and continue doing so in the forecast duration as well.
