The panic disorder market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Panic Disorder Market Size, Epidemiology, In-Market Drugs Sales, Pipeline Therapies, and Regional Outlook 2025-2035". Panic disorder is a type of anxiety that causes recurrent and unexpected panic attacks. These attacks are characterized by a sudden episode of fear or discomfort as well as a sense of loss of control, even when there is no apparent danger or trigger. The ailment can lead to significant impairment in daily functioning and interfere with relationships, work, and other aspects of life. Individuals suffering from this disease may experience physical symptoms, such as a racing heartbeat, sweating, shaking, weakness, nausea, chills, dizziness, difficulty breathing, chest pain, etc. The other common indications include intense terror, a choking or smothering sensation, behavioral changes, fear of losing control, persistent concern, feelings of unreality, depersonalization, etc. The diagnosis of the ailment typically requires a combination of the patient's symptoms and medical history. To be diagnosed with this condition, an individual must meet the diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders (DSM-5) criteria, including having at least one frequent panic attack to be followed by a month or more. Also, the attacks must not be caused by substance use or other medical health illnesses.

The increasing prevalence of inherited mental disorders that result in alterations in the way different areas of the brain function is primarily driving the panic disorder market. Moreover, the rising incidences of several associated risk factors, such as major life stress, traumatic events, smoking, excessive caffeine intake, a history of childhood sexual or physical abuse, etc., are further augmenting the market growth. Besides this, the escalating utilization of medications, including selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors and benzodiazepines, to help reduce symptoms and the frequency of attacks in patients is also creating a positive outlook for the market. Additionally, numerous key players are making extensive investments in research activities to launch novel mind-calming and relaxation techniques for treating the ailment, which can reduce muscle tension and stabilize breathing. This, in turn, is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Furthermore, the emerging popularity of psychotherapies, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and exposure therapy, since they assist patients in identifying and replacing unhealthy emotions, behaviors, and thoughts with more adaptive ones, is expected to drive the panic disorder market in the coming years.

• The 12-month frequency in adults is 2.7%, with 44.8% categorized as severe cases.
• The lifetime prevalence rates of serious depression in panic disorder might be as high as 50-60%.
• Asthma has been related to a 4.5-fold increase in the likelihood of developing panic disorder, and those with panic disorder are 6 times more likely to develop asthma than those without anxiety disorders.
• Women are two to three times as likely to be affected than men.
• The prevalence of panic disorder is low before the age of 14 (<0.4%).

Drugs:

Paxil (Paroxetine) is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) developed by Novo Nordisk for the treatment of panic disorder. It is a structural analog of femoxetine. Paxil works by boosting the quantity of serotonin, a naturally occurring neurotransmitter in the brain.

HB01 is an experimental oral fixed‑dose combination of telmisartan, and verapamil investigated for panic disorder. It aims to rebalance dysfunctional neural networks by simultaneously targeting the angiotensin II and adrenergic systems. Telmisartan modulates central angiotensin receptors, while verapamil blocks calcium channels; together, they work to normalize brain connectivity in regions critical for autonomic regulation and stress response, reducing panic symptoms.

CVL-865 is under clinical development by Cerevel Therapeutics for the treatment of panic disorder. It is given orally as a tablet. The therapeutic candidate overcomes the notable adverse effects linked to alpha 1 binding by selectively targeting the alpha 2, 3, and 5 subunits of the GABA-A receptor.
