Europe Sleep Aids Market Size (2022 to 2027)

The size of the European Sleep Aids Market was worth USD 14.88 billion in 2022 and is estimated to be growing at a CAGR of 6.5%, reaching USD 20.38 billion by 2027.

The European sleep aids market is expected to be majorly driven by the factors such as the increase in the prevalence of sleep disorders such as insomnia, sleep apnea, parasomnias, and many more illnesses. As mentioned in the European Sleep Research Society, around 10% of the European population is suffering from insomnia. As mentioned in healtheuropa.com, an estimated 175 million people in Europe have obstructive sleep apnoea. Furthermore, sleeping disorders are majorly attributed to factors such as high-pressure workload, environmental changes, depression, anxiety disorders, and lack of a proper sleep cycle. The growing geriatric population in this region significantly contributes to the European sleep aids market growth. In addition, growing awareness among people about increasing sleep disorders' effects increases the demand for sleep aids as these pills help reset the sleep schedule. Furthermore, rising investments from government and non-government organizations in research and development activities for manufacturing innovative and effective treatments and drugs are encouraging the growth of sleep aids in the market.

In addition, initiatives by the government and private organizations for developing proper medical infrastructure, healthcare facilities, and services are positively accelerating the growth rate of the European sleep aids market. On the other hand, the rising preferences towards over-the-counter drugs are propelling the market growth. In addition, the increasing technological advancements for developing various new techniques and diagnosing devices for treating sleep aids and the increasing adoption rates for newly launched therapeutics and devices are also boosting the sleep aids market growth in this region. 

However, side effects and complications associated with sleep aids are expected to restrict the growth of the sleep aids market in the European region during the forecast period. In addition, the people's lack of awareness and knowledge about the dosage forms and strict government rules and regulations with the stringent approval processes for approving drugs and devices are hampering the market growth of sleep aids.
