Furthermore, the world’s older population continues to grow at an unprecedented rate, and currently, 9% of people worldwide are aged 65 and over. As the world’s more aging population continues to grow at an unprecedented rate, it is expected that the demand for muscle relaxant drugs will rise in the coming years.

Sector Overview

The two muscle relaxant types are available in the market are direct-acting muscle relaxants and centrally acting muscle relaxants. Direct-acting muscle relaxants are also known as neuromuscular blocking agents. These have no central nervous system activity and act by interfering with neurons’ transmission at the neuromuscular junction endplate.
