Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB) Market is expected to reach 6.8 million by 2034

Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) is the second most common form of progressive dementia after Alzheimer's disease, accounting for 10-15% of dementia cases worldwide. It is characterized by the abnormal buildup of alpha-synuclein proteins (Lewy bodies) in the brain, leading to cognitive decline, fluctuations in alertness, Parkinsonian motor symptoms, sleep disturbances, and hallucinations.

The complexity of DLB often leads to underdiagnosis or misdiagnosis, as symptoms overlap with Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease dementia. However, improved awareness, better diagnostic tools, and patient advocacy have begun to change the outlook. With an aging global population and increased emphasis on early detection, the DLB patient pool is expected to expand significantly between 2024 and 2034, creating opportunities for healthcare providers, pharmaceutical companies, and digital health innovators.

Market Overview
• Patient Pool 2024: ~4.4 million (estimated globally)
• Forecasted Patient Pool 2034: ~6.8 million
