The key factor driving the market is increased drug and alcohol consumption. For instance, as per the World Drug Report 2021 published by United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) in 2022, the number of people using drugs increased by 22%. The report also stated that, around 200 million people smoked cannabis in 2021, thereby increasing cannabis testing. Similarly, as per the Global Information System on Alcohol and Health (GISAH), in 2018 the worldwide total consumption was equal to 6.2 litres of pure alcohol per person in 15 years and older. Thus, the rising consumption of drugs and alcohol is expected to increase the demand for drug screening, thereby fuelling the overall market growth.
