Europe Market Forecast

The growth of the market can be attributed majorly to the increased drug activity in Europe, including the synthetic opioid fentanyl. There is now a recent European Union-funded initiative initiated by the Trimbos Institute to prepare for the synthetic opioid (SO) threat, called SO-PREP. According to their website, the SO-PREP project was established to gain better insight and understanding of the current use and trends of SO, and related health needs, in order to strengthen the SO readiness of European health systems. Their goal is to develop an evidence-based toolkit with implementation guides outlining monitoring and response best practices. According to a drug report last year by the European Center for the Surveillance of Drugs and Addiction, 1 in 5 of those who started drug treatment for opioid-related problems, it cited synthetic opioids, not heroin, as the main problem drug.
