These factors are expected to drive the market growth during the forecast period. According to American Veterinary Medical Association, approximately 1 in 4 dogs will suffer from neoplasia at some point of their life and almost 50% of the dogs above the age of 10 will develop cancer.
Moreover, increasing incidences of animal diseases and increasing use of animals in medical research and trials is expected to drive the animal sedatives market during the forecast period. According to Understanding Animal Research, in 2019, 3,401,517 procedures were carried out in Great Britain on dogs, horses, cats and primates under the British law for the purpose of scientific research.

Key Market Trends
The Phenothiazines drug Segment is Expected to Account for the Largest Market Share During the Forecast Period
The phenothiazines segment is estimated to have the highest share of the animal sedatives market during the forecast period, as they aid to lower dopamine levels and further depress some areas of the reticular activating systems. Acepromazine is one of the most regularly used phenothiazines, which can be used alone or in combination with other sedatives as pre-operative drugs, to relieve travel anxiety, and to avoid allergies and itching in animals.
The parent ingredient of all medications is a phenothiazine. They are employed as tranquilizers, preanesthetic drugs, antiemetics, and for the treatment of CNS agitation in domestic animals. Chlorpromazine (marketed as Thorazine and other trade names), thioridazine (Mellaril), and trifluoperazine are three of the most often utilized phenothiazines (Stelazine).
Animal diseases such as Rabies, Canine distemper, Leptospirosis, Canine influenza, Canine parainfluenza, etc. are some of the most common risks for the animal's well-being. The animals are provided sedative drugs for their cure from zoonoses, phenothiazines being the parent ingredient for the most regularly used sedative drugs.

North America held the largest market for animal sedative drugs in the past and is expected to retain its position during the forecast period due to an increase in the frequency of zoonotic diseases, the use of animal sedatives, and increased expenditure in animal medical research. The presence of well-established healthcare infrastructure, and strong adoption of the latest diagnostic technology are all factors that contribute to this supremacy. This, together with the rising frequency of animal diseases, will help this region maintain its market dominance in the years ahead.
The North American region is estimated to be a potential segment for the animal sedative market as it generates most of the revenue from this region, because of the presence of comparatively higher animal health expenditure, high awareness levels, and a large number of medical research and trials. North America is expected to dominate the animal sedative market during the forecast period because of the government initiatives of monitoring and implementation of rules and regulations on sedatives drug manufacturing companies.
Moreoever, Europe and Asia Pacific is also expected to account for significant growth during the forecast period due to large incidences of medical research and improving animal healthcare infrastructure in the developing countries like China, Japan and India. Additionally, increase in expenditure on research and development activities for improving animal's safety and care is the strategy adopted by the dominating market players to account for the industry growth in the region.
