Chronic Constipation Overview:

Chronic constipation is a prevalent digestive disorder marked by infrequent bowel movements and difficulty passing stool. Unlike occasional constipation, which is temporary and typically resolves on its own, chronic constipation is a long-term condition that persists for several weeks or more. Symptoms often include fewer than three bowel movements per week, straining during defecation, and hard, lumpy stools.

Common causes of chronic constipation include:

– Slow Stool Movement: Reduced motility through the colon

– Dietary Factors: Low fiber intake from fruits and vegetables

– Inadequate Fluid Intake: Leading to dehydration

– Lack of Exercise: Contributing to slowed digestion

– Medical Conditions: Such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or other gastrointestinal disorders

– Medication Side Effects: From drugs like opioids or certain antidepressants

– Mental Health Issues: Including stress, anxiety, and depression

– Eating Disorders: Impacting digestive function

Diagnosis of chronic constipation involves a thorough assessment, including:

– Medical History Review: To understand the patient’s symptoms and history

– Physical Examination: To identify any physical abnormalities

– Diagnostic Tests: Such as blood tests to rule out underlying conditions, and imaging studies like X-rays or colonoscopy to evaluate the colon’s structure and detect any abnormalities

This diagnostic process can be challenging due to factors such as symptom underreporting, overlap with other gastrointestinal disorders, the absence of definitive diagnostic tests, and the lack of standardized criteria. Consequently, a comprehensive evaluation by healthcare professionals is essential.

Management of chronic constipation follows a stepwise approach:

1. Initial Assessment: Identifying and addressing secondary causes and underlying conditions

2. Lifestyle and Dietary Changes: Implementing fiber-rich diets and increasing fluid intake, along with behavioral modifications

3. Laxative Use: If lifestyle changes are ineffective, options include bulk-forming, osmotic, and stimulant laxatives

4. Prokinetic Agents: For persistent symptoms, medications like prucalopride may be prescribed

5. Biofeedback Therapy: Recommended for patients with defecation disorders

6. Surgical Intervention: Considered only as a last resort after all other treatment options have been exhausted

Chronic Constipation Epidemiology Segmentation:

  • According to Yamamoto et al. (2022), an online survey conducted in the US found that the prevalence of chronic constipation was 5.5% based on the Rome III criteria, whereas in Japan, it was 2.1% based on medical consultations.

  • The Comprehensive Survey of Living Conditions in Japan (2017) indicated that constipation is more common in women than men. However, the prevalence among men increases significantly after age 70, with nearly equal rates observed at age 80 and older.

  • Roque and Bouras (2015) found that the cumulative incidence of chronic constipation is approximately 20% in the elderly, significantly higher than in younger populations. Severe constipation is particularly prevalent in older women, occurring at rates two to three times higher than in their male counterparts.

  • Enck et al. (2015) reported that global prevalence rates for chronic constipation vary widely, ranging from 2.4% to 35%, with Germany showing a lower rate of 5%.

  • Shin (2021) highlighted that chronic constipation leads to about 1 million hospital visits annually in the US and forecasted an increase in prevalence due to an aging population.

  • Given the higher rates of chronic constipation in older adults, the prevalence is expected to rise as the global population ages. This trend underscores the growing need for effective management strategies and interventions to address this increasing health issue.

Chronic Constipation Market Outlook

Various treatment options are available for chronic constipation, including over-the-counter laxatives, prescription medications, dietary changes, and lifestyle adjustments. With the global rise in chronic constipation cases, the demand for these treatments is anticipated to remain high. Fiber supplements have proven effective in improving functional constipation.

Current literature suggests that osmotic and stimulant laxatives should be the first line of treatment for chronic constipation. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) 3350, known for its substantial osmotic activity, is effective for short-term relief and is available over the counter for occasional constipation.

Linaclotide, marketed as LINZESS, works as an agonist of the Heat Stable Enterotoxin Receptor (Guanylyl Cyclase C). Approved in 2012, it is now available worldwide, including in the US, the UK, France, Germany, China, and Japan, through Allergan Sales LLC.

Lubiprostone, approved by the FDA in January 2006, is used to treat chronic constipation and IBS-C based on clinical studies demonstrating its safety and efficacy.

Prucalopride, marketed as Resolax or Montegrity, is a prescription medication for chronic idiopathic constipation (CIC) in patients who have not found relief from laxatives.

For patients unresponsive to medical treatments, surgical interventions may be considered, including mechanical colon emptying with enema programs for those with slow bowel movements.

Ongoing research is focused on developing novel therapies to address the unmet needs in chronic constipation. Pharmaceutical companies are investing in new treatments aimed at normalizing gut transit, enhancing bowel function, stimulating gut motility, and promoting intestinal secretion.

According to DelveInsight, significant changes are expected in the Chronic Constipation market across the 7MM from 2019 to 2032.
