The gout market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Gout Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2025-2035". Gout refers to a form of arthritis in which uric acid crystals build up in the joints, causing inflammation, pain, and swelling. Uric acid is a natural waste material that is produced by the body as it breaks down purines, which are found in various food items and beverages. Gout attacks typically occur suddenly and can be extremely painful. The most common joint affected by this ailment is the big toe; however, it can also occur in other joints, such as the knee, ankle, wrist, and fingers. Individuals suffering from this condition may experience intense joint pain, inflammation, redness, lingering discomfort, limited range of motion, etc. The diagnosis of gout depends on identifying the patient's clinical features, medical history, and physical exam. The healthcare provider may perform a dual-energy computerized tomography test that combines various X-ray images to visualize urate crystals in joints. Numerous other studies used to diagnose this disease include joint fluid tests, blood workup, ultrasound, etc.

The increasing cases of metabolic syndrome that lead to an elevation in uric acid concentration are primarily driving the gout market. In addition to this, the rising incidences of multiple associated risk factors, including being overweight, having a family history of gout, consuming a diet high in purines, certain medical conditions, etc., are also bolstering the market growth. Furthermore, the widespread adoption of colchicine and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs to effectively reduce pain, control gout flares, and prevent future attacks in patients, is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. In line with this, the inflating utilization of uricosurics, like probenecid, for treating a moderate-to-severe disease condition by improving the kidneys' ability to remove uric acid from the body is also creating a positive outlook for the market. Moreover, the escalating application of behavioral modifications, which involve a low purine diet, physical exercise, and decreased intake of alcohol to aid in minimizing the severity of illness, is further augmenting the market growth. Apart from this, the emerging popularity of arthroscopic technique to treat the ailment, since it can remove uric acid in the joints, thereby providing better functional outcomes for patients, is expected to drive the gout market in the coming years.
