Global Anti-Suicide Drugs Market: Overview

Suicide is the act of intentionally taking one’s own life. Such acts are attributed mainly to mental disorders such as depression, schizophrenia, personality disorders, bipolar disorder, and substance abuse such as alcoholism, etc. Financial issues, stressful socio-economic climate, harassment at the workplace and other institutions are some other leading factors that are pushing individuals to act-out impulsively. Those individuals that have attempted suicide and lived to tell, are more likely to make further attempts on their lives in the future. Due to such factors, anti-suicide drugs have been manufactured to serve as a preventive measure for the ones who have suicidal thoughts or tendencies towards such a decision. However, the administration of the drug must be done under the supervision of a qualified physician to ensure the proper dosage. Otherwise, the likelihood of an overdose or improper dosage is higher and could result in a fatal outcome.
