Nicotine Addiction Epidemiology Forecast 2024-2032

Nicotine Addiction Epidemiology Forecast Report Coverage

Expert Market Research's “Nicotine Addiction Epidemiology Forecast Report 2024-2032” offers comprehensive information on the prevalence and demographics of nicotine addiction. It projects the future incidence and prevalence rates of nicotine addiction across various populations. The study covers age, gender, and type as major determinants of the nicotine addiction-affected population. The report highlights patterns in the prevalence of nicotine addiction over time and projects future trends based on multiple variables.

Nicotine Addiction: Disease Overview

Nicotine addiction is characterized by dependency on nicotine, a chemical found in tobacco products. Nicotine, on entering the bloodstream, reaches the brain and triggers the release of dopamine which stimulates feelings of pleasure and satisfaction. Individuals with nicotine addiction experience a compulsive desire to consume nicotine despite knowing the potential health risks. Withdrawal symptoms (such as irritability, anxiety, headaches, increased appetite, and trouble sleeping) often challenge people who try to quit nicotine. These withdrawal symptoms contribute to the high relapse rate among people suffering from nicotine addiction.

Nicotine Addiction: Treatment Overview

Treatment for nicotine addiction targets both psychological habits and physical dependence. Nicotine patches, gums, and lozenges form a part of nicotine replacement therapy that is often used to reduce withdrawal symptoms by delivering controlled doses of nicotine. Prescription medications such as varenicline (Chantix) and bupropion (Zyban) aid in managing cravings and withdrawal symptoms by targeting the brain's chemistry. Combination therapy like nicotine replacement therapy along with prescription medications or counseling is increasingly gaining popularity as an effective method for long-term relief from cravings.

Epidemiology

The nicotine addiction epidemiology section offers information on the patient pool from history to the present as well as the projected trend for each of the 8 major markets. Expert Market Research provides both current and predicted trends for nicotine addiction by examining a wide range of studies. Additionally, the report covers the diagnosed patient pool for nicotine addiction and their trends. The data is broken down into specific categories, such as total prevalent cases in males and females, and total diagnosed cases across different age groups and patient pools.

• Nicotine addiction is considered the leading cause of preventable death globally, with cigarette smoking accounting for over 480,000 deaths annually in the United States along with 41,000 deaths caused by secondhand smoke exposure.
• According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 80 to 90% of individuals who engage in smoking are addicted to nicotine.
• It is estimated that 23.6 Americans or 8.5% of people aged 12 years and older are affected by nicotine dependence.
• As per a cross-sectional study (2023), the nicotine dependence prevalence from 2006 to 2019 among adults in the United States with cigarette use significantly decreased, especially for those aged 26 and older. However, adults 50 and older, particularly those with major depressive episodes or substance use disorders, had the highest rates of nicotine dependence.

Country-wise Nicotine Addiction Epidemiology

The nicotine addiction epidemiology data and findings for the United States, EU-4 (Germany, Spain, Italy, France), the United Kingdom, Japan, and India are also provided in the epidemiology section.

The epidemiology of nicotine addiction differs between countries owing to factors such as legislation, product availability, economic conditions, and cultural and social practices, among others. The local addiction patterns and public health policies significantly influence the consumption and dependence of nicotine products in a region. In India, around 38% of men and 9% of women are reported to consume tobacco in any form (smoking or smokeless), according to the National Family Health Survey (NFHS-5) 2019-21.
