Complementary And Alternative Medicine Market Size 2021| Top Companies, Trends, Growth Factors Details for Business Development and Forecast to 2027 -...

December30, 20204 min read

Did you know that in 2019, chronic pain impactedone-thirdof the U.S. population? This number continues to rise, and so does the consumption of various substances to help manage and/or combat pain.

Currently, different NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), acetaminophen, and opioids are used the most often for the treatment of pain. However, theres no guarantee that these drugs will be fully effective in eliminating pain nor is there a guarantee that these drugs wont cause any adverse side effects.

Nowadays, cannabis and its many cannabinoids are being pursued more because of their medicinal and therapeutic properties.Overall, though, alternative plant medicine is becoming a part of thousands of peoples routines and lifestyles for numerous reasons. Here are a few main reasons why.

RELATED:Will Medical Cannabis Sales Eventually Surpass Recreational Sales?

Oftentimes, when someone experiences pain, their primary mission is to eliminate it and use or consume a product to achieve relief. Before treating pain though, its important to understand the characteristics of the pain itself, the severity of it, and the nature of it. For example, is the pain acute or chronic? Is it neuropathic or inflammatory pain? Is the pain caused by an injury, illness, ailment, or a new medication? After understanding the type of pain, finding an appropriate treatment method is the next step.

When evaluating numerous treatment methods, its essential to understand the efficacies of different treatment options and potential adverse effects/reactions. From here, an individual should be able to find a suitable treatment method that aligns with the type of pain theyre experiencing.

RELATED:Here's What Doctors Wished Veterans Knew About Medical Cannabis

Although opioids, NSAIDs, acetaminophen, and various OTC (over-the-counter) drugs tend to be the norm for pain management and/or relief, cannabis and its array of beneficial cannabinoids are growing in demand and usage.

Specifically, to avoid potential adverse side effects and/or the risk of drug addiction or dependency, for many, opioids are taking a back seat, and cannabinoids are being pursued instead. Despite traditional medicines demonstrating their efficacy in many different situations and among different people, issues can still arise post-consumption.

For example, NSAIDs can be beneficial, but theyve also been associated with severecomplicationsinvolving the gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and renal systems. Next are opioids, which have proven their effectiveness in different situations, but theyve alsodemonstratedtheir ability to cause cognitive deficiencies, motor impairment, and respiratory depression. Opioids also unfortunately represent a substantialaddiction and dependency riskamong specific groups of individuals.

As time goes on, alternative plant medicine, such as cannabis, numerous cannabinoids, and terpenes, are slowly changing the way pain management is viewed and/or executed.

RELATED:Yes, Medical Cannabis Works. So Why Deny the Anecdotal Evidence?

The cannabis plant containsover 100 cannabinoids, but some of them are more well-known such as Cannabidiol (CBD) and Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). Numerous cannabinoids are medically and therapeutically beneficial in multiple ways, but CBD, THC, Cannabichromene (CBC), and Cannabigerols (CBG)analgesic propertiesstand out. So far, it has beenfoundthat CBC contains both anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. Whereas, CBG hasprovenits stronger analgesic activity than THC.

Aside from different cannabinoids analgesic properties, various terpenes found on the cannabis plant are analgesics as well, especially myrcene. One 2008studyexpanded on this andstatedthat: Myrcene is analgesic, and such activity, in contrast to cannabinoids, is blocked by naloxone suggesting an opioid-like mechanism. Another terpene that contains analgesic andanti-inflammatory attributesis -caryophyllene.

In addition, cannabinoid analgesics have generally been well-tolerated within clinical trials. The World Health Organization (WHO) also reported that CBD is non-psychoactive, non-toxic, non-addictive, and has agood safety profile.

Although theres more to learn about cannabinoids and pain management, various surveys of cannabis users have shed light on the substitution of cannabis products for opioids. Specifically, one2017 surveyfocused on American and Canadian cannabis users, and the following was reported: Our findings are consistent with prior surveys of American and Canadian marijuana users in which substitution of marijuana for opioids was prevalent due to better symptom management and fewer adverse and withdrawal effects.

Astounding growth in Complementary and Alternative Medicines Market is Projected to Grow at a CAGR of 16.4% over the forecast period (2019 2027),...

Patients with lower back and neck pain are now eligible for subsidised acupuncture treatment at public specialist outpatient clinics.

This pilot programme will provide referred patients with means-tested subsidies that can cover up to 70 per cent of treatment costs, the Ministry of Health (MOH) announced on Tuesday.

About 2,000 patients a year, or 70 per cent of all who visit public specialist outpatient clinics for pain in the lower back and neck, are set to benefit under this pilot.

Merdeka Generation and Pioneer Generation seniors will enjoy an additional 25 per cent and 50 per cent off the remaining healthcare bill, respectively.

All patients, regardless of their subsidy status, will also be able to pay for acupuncture services to relieve lower back and neck pain using their Flexi-MediSave scheme.

The scheme, introduced by the Health Ministry in 2015, aims to reduce out-of-pocket costs for older Singaporeans at polyclinics, general practitioner clinics on the Community Health Assist Scheme, and public specialist outpatient clinics.

Seniors can begin to benefit from Flexi-MediSave once they are 60 years of age.

Those who qualify can withdraw up to $200 a year from their own MediSave account or that of their spouse to pay for outpatient treatments.

"The pilot will not cover acupuncture used to treat other pain indications, and other forms of traditional, complementary and alternative medicine currently offered at public healthcare institutions," said MOH.

Subsidised acupuncture therapy for lower back, neck pain - The Straits Times

I'm back again with random thoughts blowing around my brain. Is that what headwinds are?

People have a strange habit when they're describing the color of things.

I'm looking for a car that's blue in color.

Blue in color. What else could the blue signal? Could it be blue in taste? Blue in sound? I'm sure it's not blue in mood.

From the wine pages of The Washington Post: "The 1982 Montbray Cabernet Sauvignon was brick red in color yet still bright and alive on the nose and palate, with spice-box aromas of clove, pepper and fenugreek."

(Wine writing is so, so fancy.)

So the wine is brick red in color and not in flavor? Not in composition?

One reader wrote to the food staff of The Post about the fruit of a quince bush in her yard.

It's small, and yellow in color, and frankly, over the years, I've just let it fall to the ground without doing anything with it.

Yellow in color? Not yellow in terms of cowardice?

The craziest example of all was from a story about football uniforms.

They'll have a darker burgundy jersey, and pants that are actually gold in color.

So, the pants aren't made of the element gold? Thanks for that clarification.

Similarly, an article in The Post recommending wrapping baked goods in colorful red, blue, green and gold cellophane.

I have never seen uncolorful or colorless red cellophane, have you?

We have all heard of smallpox. The sometimes deadly disease, also called variola, causes eruptions on the skin that can leave a person with pockmarks. We don't need to worry about catching it now because vaccines have eradicated it, though it had been around for many centuries.

"Currently, there is no evidence of naturally occurring smallpox transmission anywhere in the world," the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases reports.

But the American Heritage Dictionary definition got weird. The disease is called smallpox to contrast it to the great pox, which was syphilis. The sexually transmitted disease causes larger pockmarks. (Please trust me when I urge you not to search on Google for images of syphilis. I sincerely regret having done so.) The great pox spread across Europe in the 15th and 16th centuries.

Because we've been hearing about vaccines every day for months now, I'll inject a bit of history. Smallpox was the virus that inspired the first vaccine that worked.

The World Health Organization explains: "The smallpox vaccine, introduced by Edward Jenner in 1796, was the first successful vaccine to be developed. He observed that milkmaids who previously had caught cowpox did not catch smallpox and showed that inoculated vaccinia protected against [the] virus."

These two words have most of the same letters, but they have different meanings. The difference has grown a little hazy over the years.

Alternately means some things happen by turns. First one, then the other, then back again to the first.

She watched parts of two TV shows alternately because she didn't have a DVR.

The team alternately practices at two high school baseball fields.

Alternatively is following a path other than the original option.

He asked me to phone him. Alternatively, I sent him a text.

We could have Key lime pie. Alternatively, we could have chocolate mousse pie.

(Please note that the much shorter word or could easily replace alternatively.)

Similarly, less conventional music is called alternative music. Alternative medicine offers treatments not found in the mainstream. And, though we see fewer and fewer newspapers each month, an alternative newspaper might offer less formal content and writing style. All three cases offer a different option.

People often use alternate when they mean alternative. From The Post:

The United States risks being left behind by other countries if it doesn't develop alternate energy technologies.

Instead, the writer meant the country needs a different energy source.

Legal proceedings use alternate when describing juries, but alternative is more accurate.

The next day, the 12 jurors and two alternate jurors settled into their jury sections and the proceedings began.

Those two jurors are other options.

Authorities sometimes suggest using a different route from the normal one. So alternative is needed here:

Officials warned drivers to expect delays, saying they might need to use alternate routes.

Naturally, as I often note, things change. Merriam-Webster says alternative is a synonym for alternate, partly because more and more people are using alternate when they mean alternative. Still, most people on the dictionary's Usage Panel say the two words are not synonymous. Each word has its place.

I'll confess that the pandemic has made it hard for me to feel rejuvenated for a while. Though chocolate does help.

When you would like to feel rejuvenated, you do something that makes you feel like your old self again. Or you might rejuvenate a weak football team, a crummy couch or a bad public image.

And yet, juvenate isn't a word. Normally, the prefix re- means something is happening again. I'm trying to find a philosophical reason behind this. You can be made young again, but you can't be made young? Maybe I'll stick with invigorate and reinvigorate.

A news guy this week was asking a guest to opine on some situation:

What's your analysis so far?

Your analysis sounds exactly like urinalysis.

I am so immature.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease, an autoimmune disease mainly affect intestine. It needs early attention to not let it becomes fatal. Dr Piyush Ranjan, Senior Consultant, Institute of Liver Gastroenterology & Pancreatico Biliary Sciences, Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, Delhi, explains various aspects of the disease, symptoms, precautions, and treatment measures, in an exclusive interview with Harshal Desai of Elets News Network (ENN).

Q You have years of experience tackling IBD patients at topmost hospitals. Tell us what exactly is IBD and how is it affecting Indians.

IBD basically stands for Inflammatory Bowel Disease. It comprises malfunction in the digestive system involving intestine. There are the two major types-the most common being, Ulcerative Colitis and Crohns disease. Ulcerative colitis involves the large intestine while Crohns disease occurs in bothlarge and small intestine. Then there are indeterminate colitis and microscopic colitis- these are the sub type of IBD.

Q Hows this trend different from the other trend we have in India. How is this different from the growing global trend?

Yes, the global trend is the same. Initially people used to believe that Crohns disease does not exist in India or it has low prevalence in India. Moreover, due to different presentations, it was confused with Intestinal Tuberculosis. Now with better diagnostic test, we are finding that Crohns is being diagnosed more and more. In addition, people who were previously treated for Intestinal Tuberculosis later turned out to be Crohns Disease. Crohns disease relevance has been increasing in India mainly because of better diagnostic tests and better awareness among the doctors.

Q Brief us about the reasons why it happens? Does our routine life like working under stress, long office hours are some of the reasons for IDP?

There are many, but the exact reason of this disease is not known. Mainly these diseases are autoimmune in nature. Autoimmune disease means those diseases which occur because of the damage in the body by its own immune system. In this case, own immune system recognize a particular organ as foreign origin. Because this is it matter of speculation. Some genetic disposition has been found but one to one correlation has not been seen yet. It oscillates about the triggering event. An industrial bacterium is one of the postulates. But in a sense, it is because of the damage of intestine by a persons own immune system.

Q Does it mean that you need to have a strong immune system to fight of this disease?

No, actually a strong immune system damages you; so it is a misbalance. It is a failed recognition of the self-tissue. Its not like these people are not susceptible to other infection. Its just that there immune cells start damaging any tissueit may be liver or in case of ulcerative disease it is intestine.

Q What is the diagnosis process and what are the possible treatments in the country right now?

Diagnostic process starts from the symptoms. Whenever someone has blood mixed diarrhea, it is most likely that person is suffering from ulcerative colitis. The diagnosis test for this type of diseases is the colonoscopy. Endoscopy is done from the oral route; colonoscopy is done from the rectal route. Endoscope is passed through the rectum and large intestine is examined directly. The appearance of ulcerative colitis is very characteristic but still to confirm it a biopsy is taken though this is nothing to do with malignancy. People get scared too much when they are told about that biopsy has been undertaken. Ulcerative colitis diagnosis process involves colonoscopy and taking the intestinal biopsy. This is very simple for ulcerative colitis. For Crohns disease, we may examine small intestine with the help of a Capsule Endoscopy. There are other ancillary tests but they are not as credible as this to establish the diagnosis

This disease requires life-long treatment, the most important thing which has to be understood. There are many drugs available. The choice of drugs depends upon the location where the disease is in the intestine exactly. Then the severity of disease is another factor. According to the severity of the disease, various drugs are prescribedlike the oldest drugs which are five amino salicylate. Then there are oral steroids, other immune suppressive drugs like azathioprine methotrexate and newer drugs which are known as biological drugs- -anti TNF Alpha drugs,

So, which drug one would choose depends on the severity of the disease. For active disease, stronger medicine is required to first bring disease into control and once the disease has been brought under control then a different group of drug is required to maintain that statethat is ignored remission.

The most common cause of a person having uncontrolled disease recurrent is over compliance to the treatment. People often stop their treatment and start taking alternative options which leads to loss of control of disease.

Q What are the challenges you face while diagnosing IBD diseases?

One of the most common challenges is when a person is having bleeding. Doctor very often misdiagnosed as having hemorrhoidthat is piles. They undergo surgery because they do not undergo a colonoscopy, so any person having bleeding, sigmoidoscopy or colonoscopy at the onset is the bare minimum which is required.

So one needs to understand that this is a possibility and unless and until a test is done it will not be possible to diagnose this. Patients have to be counseled for depression that is a major challenge. These drugs have some side effects too, so monitoring is very necessary.

In this COVID time, people have stopped coming for checkups. This may lead to relapse that the disease coming back more strongly. One particular problem in our country is proclivity for alternative medicines like Ayurvedic and Homeopathic. People fall in that trap often. When they are promised that theyll be given some medicines which will not have any side effects, they go for it. These are some of the challenges.

Q Do we have cure in Ayurveda and Homeopathy for this disease?

They claim but you must have read that patanjali has found the cure for coronavirus but anything that is claimed has to be proved by a scientific mean. As a scientist you cannot say no to anything. They may have a cure but you need scientific proof which they dont have.

Q Due to lockdown, IBD may have taken toll on lots of IBD patients. What is your take?

A: Absolutely any person with long standing chronic disease need to visit doctor on regular interval but due to lockdown they are averse to visit doctors. They are scared to come to the hospital due to fear of catching infection. So not only Ulcerative, people with many different diseases, non COVID diseases are facing a lot of problem because of their reluctance to come to the hospital to seek help.

Q Recently I read a report that people with inflammatory bowel disease are at the high risk of dementia, do you think so?

As I told you these medicines decrease the immunity level. So there are groups of medicines among medicines which are being used for treatment of IBD which might put a person to higher risk for developing COVID. But the fact is again continuation or discontinuation. There are very clear cut guidelines for that and you actually need to take guidance of a Gastroenterologist to decidedepending on the activity of the disease, the past behavior of the disease, and the current needle that is their control.

Q What message would you like to give to people who are suffering from IBD?

Get yourself diagnosed early if youre having such symptoms. Discuss with the doctor. Accept that you are having a problem and accept the fact is this disease requires a life-long treatment, this is the most important thing. You need regular follow up to look at the activity of disease and monitor the side effects of the drugs. If you do this, nearly 90% people will have a very good course. 80 to 90% will have a very good and smooth coursethere will be intermittent some bumps on the way but most of the people can have the normal productive active life.
