Out of these, more than 650 million people were obese, which was about 13% of adults globally.

The anti-obesity drugs market is anticipated to record a CAGR of around 21% over the forecast period, i.e., 2019-2027. The market is segmented by mechanism of action, by distribution channel and by region, out of which, the mechanism of action segment is further bifurcated into peripherally acting anti-obesity drugs and centrally acting anti-obesity drugs. Peripherally acting anti-obesity drugs are those whose mechanism of action excludes the central nervous system (CNS). These are beneficial as they do not act on the CNS and hence produce no side-effects on the brain. On the other hand, the centrally acting anti-obesity drugs act on the central nervous system and work by stimulating the brain and spinal cord.
