Extended screen exposure is anticipated to drive the growth of the migraine treatment market. Screen exposure refers to the amount of time individuals spend using electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, computers, and televisions. The increase in screen time is fueled by factors including the rise of remote work, online education, digital entertainment, and greater reliance on technology for social interactions. Migraine treatments aim to manage symptoms triggered or worsened by prolonged screen use, including medications, lifestyle adjustments, and ergonomic practices to reduce strain and prevent attacks. For example, in November 2023, according to the Office of Communications, a UK-based agency, UK adults spent an average of 3 hours and 41 minutes online daily in May 2023, an increase of eight minutes from May 2022. During this period, 47.9 million adults accessed the internet via smartphones, tablets, and computers, with young adults aged 18-24 averaging 4 hours and 36 minutes per day, while adults aged 65 and older spent the least time online. Consequently, prolonged screen exposure is contributing to the growth of the migraine treatment market.
