US overactive bladder drug market poised for robust growth with new products and expanding patient population

14 May 2010

The USA's overactive bladder (OAB) treatment market is slated to witness strong growth, fuelled by the increase in diagnosed patient population, the rollout of new products, and growing awareness, according to a new report from Frost & Sullivan.

The risk for OAB is greatest in Americans that are 65 and older. The population that is in this age bracket is expected to increase by 20.9%, from 38.7 million in 2008 to 46.8 million in 2015. Furthermore, the US Census Bureau reports that the fastest growing segment of the population is for those aged 85 and above.
