According to a recent report by CDC, over one-third of the adults in the U.S. have obesity. Consumption of the food products that are high in cholesterol has been a major contributor to the obese population. Increasing consumption of the unhealthy food products such as potato chips, meat, bacon, chocolates and other sugary treats has led to growing prevalence of obesity globally. Moreover, surge in consumption of alcoholic beverages is further expected to contribute towards obesity. Growing prevalence of obesity due to increasing consumption of cholesterol-rich and unhealthy food products and beverages is likely to impact growth of the global obesity prescription drugs market positively.

Chronic Stress to Contribute towards Obesity

Increasing level of stress can lead people to consume unhealthy food products that hinder the brain activity and have a counteracting effect on the emotional and physical stress. In addition, surge in the stress level leads to “comfort eating”, due to which the end users are more prone to obesity. Moreover, prolonged stress due to emotional pressure leads the brain to release cortisol hormones, which increases the appetite levels in the person. Eating disorders and consumption of unhealthy food products lead to long-term problems for the blood vessels and heart. Consumption of unhealthy food products and beverages in order to counter stress-related problems further contributes towards obesity. Bound to these factors, the global anti-obesity prescription drugs market is expected to witness positive growth during the forecast period.

Appetite Stimulating Side-Effects of Psychotropic Drugs to Fuel Demand for Obesity Management

Obesity has also been a result of consuming drugs for diabetes such as sulfonylureas, insulin and thiazolidinediones. A recent report by CDC states that 9.4% of the population in the U.S. have diabetes. Consumption of drugs for diabetes stimulate appetite, due to which the patients eat more and gain weight. Moreover, obesity is also a common side-effect of consuming antidepressants drugs. As consumption of anti-depressant drugs stimulate hunger, consumers tend to eat more. These factors further contribute towards prevalence of obesity globally. Surge in the obese population is attributed to increasing consumption of the antidepressant and diabetes drugs, which is expected to impact growth of the global anti-obesity prescription drugs market.

In order to shed body fats, the obese people are increasingly opting for sugar free food products and planning diets that help in reducing weight of the end users. These factors are expected to impact growth of the global anti-obesity prescription drugs market negatively.
