The tobacco/nicotine addiction treatment claimed the largest market share in 2019, followed by other segments. Smoking is one of the leading preventable causes of deaths and it is increasing across the globe.

This drives the nicotine replacement products segment of the global addiction treatment market.

High Preference for Outpatient Treatment Centers

In terms of treatment centers, the global addiction treatment market has been categorized into outpatient treatment centers, residential treatment centers, and inpatient treatment centers. The outpatient treatment centers segment is anticipated to claim the higher share compared to the other segments and this is due to the high preference of outpatient treatment centers among addiction patients.

According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, treatment outcomes improve with longer periods of care. Hence, patients prefer to visit outpatient treatment centers as they are less expensive, allow patients to attend work, provide increased access to support from friends and family members, and offer flexible timing option for treatment. Hence, the market share of the outpatient treatment centers segment is predominant over other segments and is expected to grow during the forecast period.
