Phenylalanine Market trend, outlook 2025

Phenylalanine is essential alpha amino acid, which functions to maintain adequate levels of monoamine neurotransmitters in the brain, thereby maintaining balanced moods. Deficiency of phenylalanine causes mental confusion, depression, reduced alertness, memory impairment, and loss of appetite. Phenylalanine is majorly present in three forms: D-Phenylalanine, DL-Phenylalanine, and L-Phenylalanine. L-phenylalanine is natural amino acid found in the proteins, while D-Phenylalanine is synthesized form of phenylalanine, produced in laboratory. DL-phenylalanine is synthetic product made of 50% D-phenylalanine and 50% of L-phenylalanine.
L-phenylalanine is an essential amino acid, which is also an only form of phenylalanine found in proteins. Major dietary sources of L-phenylalanine include meat, fish, eggs, cheese, and milk. L-phenylalanine and DL-phenylalanine are commonly used to treat depression, Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), chronic pain, and a skin disease called vitiligo.
The primary function of phenylalanine is to produce tyrosine, which further gets converted into three key neurotransmitters: L-dopa, norepinephrine, and epinephrine. As some antidepressants function by increasing levels of norepinephrine, various forms of phenylalanine have been observed as a possible treatment for depression. Furthermore, D-phenylalanine has been found to be effective in the treatment of chronic pain. It blocks enkephalinase, an enzyme which increases pain levels in the body.

Furthermore, according to the same source, the prevalence of major depressive cases was higher among adult females (8.5%) as compared to males (4.8%). Furthermore, the prevalence of adults with a major depressive episode was highest among individuals aged 18-25 (10.9%). The association (NIMH) also mentions that these disorders are highly treatable thereby propelling opportunities for growth of the global phenylalanine market.
Moreover, high prevalence of chronic pain diseases is expected to foster the growth of phenylalanine market over the forecast period. For instance, according to the American Academy of Pain Medicine (AAPM), in 2011, around 1.8 billion people suffered from chronic pain. Moreover, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) estimates that one in 10 people in the U.S. suffer from chronic pain. According to a study published in the British Medical Journal in 2016, nearly one-third to half of the population in the U.K. suffers from chronic pain. Moreover, according to the NIH estimates published in 2015 by the American Pain Society, around 50 million people in the U.S. suffered from chronic pain.
Furthermore, increasing prevalence of pain and chronic diseases such as cancer and others are driving growth of the phenylalanine market. For instance, according to the National Cancer Institute, in 2018, around 1,735,350 new cases of cancer are expected to be diagnosed in the U.S. and 609,640 people are expected to die from the disease.
