Medical Nitrous Oxide Market size was valued at around USD 1.7 billion in 2023 and is estimated to grow at 7.4% CAGR from 2024 to 2032. Medical nitrous oxide also known as laughing gas is a colorless and odorless gas with the chemical formula N2O. It is commonly used in medical settings for its analgesic (pain-relieving) and anxiolytic (anxiety-reducing) properties. Nitrous oxide is administered via inhalation, typically mixed with oxygen to induce a state of sedation and relieve pain during medical procedures.
The increasing prevalence of chronic disease includes cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and cancer serves as a substantial impetus for market growth. For instance, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), in 2022, there were an estimated 20 million new cancer cases and 9.7 million deaths worldwide. Thus, this underscores the need for effective pain management solutions such as medical nitrous oxide, driving its market expansion to cater to the rising demand for analgesic options in various medical procedures and settings.
Furthermore, increasing surgical procedures and dental procedures, growing adoption of nitrous oxide across various medical specialties, and rising geriatric population, are the promoting factors fostering the growth of the market.
