Market Analysis and Insights
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved three drugs for clinical use which are buprenorphine, methadone, and naltrexone. Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is applied to cure alcohol use disorder, opioid dependency medication, and opioid overdose prevention medication. Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a medical condition characterized by an impaired ability to stop alcohol use despite adverse social, occupational, or health consequences. Acamprosate, disulfiram, and naltrexone are the most common medications used to treat alcohol use disorder (AUD). The opioid dependency medication, rise in addiction for opioids among patients. Buprenorphine, methadone and naltrexone are used to treat opioid use disorders to short-acting opioids such as heroin, morphine, and codeine, as well as semi-synthetic opioids like oxycodone and hydrocodone. These MAT medications are safe for months, years, or even a lifetime. For opioid overdose prevention medication, naloxone is used to prevent opioid overdose by reversing the toxic effects of the overdose. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) and by Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), naloxone is one of many medications considered essential to a functioning health care system.
The global medication-assisted treatment is supportive and aims to reduce the severity of the symptoms. Data Bridge Market Research analyses that the medication-assisted (MAT) treatment market will grow at a CAGR of 9.4% during the forecast period of 2022 to 2029.

Market Definition
Medication-assisted treatment (MAT), involves the use of medications, combined with counselling and behavioural therapies, to provide a complete patient approach for treating substance use disorders. MAT is primarily used to treat addiction to opioids such as heroin and prescription pain relievers. The aim of MAT is proper recovery, which includes improved patient survival, increased treatment retention, reduced illicit response, and grow in pregnancy outcomes among women.
Global Medication-Assisted (MAT) Treatment Market Dynamics
Drivers
- The Rise In Incidence Of Alcohol Use Disorder and Opioid Use Disorders
Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a medical condition characterized by an impaired ability to stop or control alcohol use despite adverse social, occupational, or health consequences. It encompasses the conditions that some people refer to as alcohol abuse, alcohol dependence, and alcohol addiction.
For instance,
- In 2022, the data by World Health Organization (WHO) European Region stated that alcohol disorder causes 1 million deaths annually
Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is the use of medications in combination with counseling and behavioral therapies to provide a "whole-patient" approach to treating substance use disorders. Medications used in MAT are approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and MAT programs are clinically driven and tailored to meet each patient's needs.
- Use Of Reimbursement For Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)
Reimbursement may be available for medication-assisted treatment even if the medication does not have a valid status.
For instance,
- In February 2021, The American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) had developed the Reimbursement & Coding FAQs and Pearls for informational purposes on medication-assisted treatment
While, if the medication does not have preferred status, the prescriber must obtain permission from the member's pharmacy benefit plan.
Opportunities
- Rise In Healthcare Expenditure
Moreover, the rise in the research and development activities and increasing investments by government and private organizations will boost new opportunities for the market's growth rate.
For instance,
- In February 2021, according to Health Care Price Index (HCPI), the total U.S. healthcare budget had increased by 3.4%. The increase in growth states the federal government spending decreased significantly in the previous year from USD 287,000 million in 2020 to USD 170,000 million in 2021
Strategic Initiative By Market Players
The demand for medication-assisted treatment has increased in the U.S. and Europe due to the timely treatment of chronic conditions. These favorable factors enhance the need for medications, and to achieve the market demand, minor and major market players are utilizing various strategies.
For instance,
- In April 2021, Adamis Pharmaceuticals Corporation with USWM announced the launch and availability of a high-dose ZIMHI injectable naloxone product to help combat opioid overdose deaths. The launch is expected to increase the product segment revenue, which will boost the market growth, and ZIMHI being made available at a discounted rate for first responders and community health organizations
These strategic initiatives by the market players, including acquisition, conferences, and focused segment product launches, are helping the companies grow and improve the company's product portfolios, ultimately leading to more revenue generation. Hence, these strategic initiatives by the market players provide an opportunity that is helping them to drive market growth.
Restraints/Challenges
- Side Effects Of Drugs Used In Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)
Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) involves using medications collated with counselling and behavioural therapies to provide a "whole-patient" approach as part of the comprehensive treatment strategy. MAT has been shown to be most effective for treating alcohol and opioid use disorders. However, certain side effects have been reported
For instance,
- Methadone and buprenorphine, the generic medications, are chemically similar to opioids, so their side effects can be similar too. These may include constipation, drowsiness, and dizziness. Some people may experience more severe side effects
Therefore, the present high cost is expected to show a descending trend.
- The Lack of Skilled Professionals, Required for Medication-Assisted Treatment
The lack or shortage of skilled expertise would challenge the pace of recovery and growth in one place. Often the unemployed people in one place have skills that are in short supply elsewhere. Moreover, rapid technological advancement in this field also leads to a lack of expertise.
For instance,
- In February 2021, according to NCBI, cultural barriers may include staff resistance to the use of medication-assisted treatment (MAT), a lack of perceived effectiveness of MAT, and a lack of knowledge about how to implement MAT within their treatment setting. Furthermore, little is known about how patient characteristics may be related to organizational decisions regarding the implementation of MAT
