Dopamine agonists, used for Parkinson’s disease, restless legs syndrome (RLS), hyperprolactinemia, and other conditions, mimic dopamine to manage neurological and hormonal disorders. The market is driven by the rising prevalence of Parkinson’s disease, affecting 55 million people globally and projected to reach 70 million by 2030, and RLS, with a 5-10% prevalence. The aging population, with 1 billion over 60 in 2020 and projected to reach 2.1 billion by 2050, increases demand. Advanced formulations like transdermal patches and extended-release tablets improve compliance by 30%. The global dopamine agonist market is estimated at USD 700-1,300 million in 2025, with a CAGR of 3%-7% through 2030.
