The epilepsy therapeutics market value in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region - Australia, China, India and Japan - is expected to increase moderately, climbing from $1.1 billion in 2012 to $1.5 billion by 2019, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.7%.

According to business intelligence provider GBI Research latest report* China and India are expected to show the fastest growth over the forecast period, with CAGRs of 6.1% and 4.2%, respectively. Meanwhile, Australia and Japan will witness slightly lower CAGRs of 3.9% and 1.7%.

Vijaya Vulapalli, senior analyst for GBI Research, says: “With a high epilepsy prevalence, China and India have large treatment populations, which are expected to increase further in the future due to better healthcare access and an improvement in treatment gaps.”
