Rise in prevalence of anxiety and seizures is a major driver of the global benzodiazepine drugs market. Current lifestyle and urban life have made peoples’ lives more stressful, which leads to mental disorders such as depression, anxiety, panic, and maniac conditions. Psychoactive drugs, such as benzodiazepine, are required to relieve these conditions and attacks. For instance, according to WHO, in 2015, the total number of people living with anxiety disorders, globally, was 264 million. Similarly, higher number of prescriptions for benzodiazepines, as compared to other psychoactive drugs, and increase in rate of adoption of generic drugs are major drivers of the global benzodiazepine drugs market.
