Increasing incidences of chronic diseases, such as cancer and cardiovascular diseases in developed countries such as U.S., easy accessibility and low cost of opioids pain killers compared to other pain killers such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and acetaminophen are the major drivers for growth of the U.S. opioids market. Strict regulatory guidelines for opioids prescription and increasing awareness about harmful effects of the drug are restraining growth of the market.

In October 2017, Government of the U.S. declared the opioid crisis, as a public health emergency. This declaration is expected to increase the awareness about the drug overuse or abuse and it led the doctors to reduce from over-prescribing the opioids drug. Moreover, Attorney General of more than 35 states sent a letter to the America's Health Insurance Plans, national association whose members provide coverage for health care and related services, urging its members to reconsider coverage policies that may be fueling the growth of opioid crisis. Due to low cost of opioids compared with other painkillers such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and acetaminophen, the insurance company has covered the opioid but not costly one which resulted in limited access to costly painkillers. This is the major concern for all states and letter from Attorney general of the states have been sent to modify this coverage policy so that every painkiller have equal access.

Due to increased focus on opioids drug, leading pharmacy chains such as CVS has also opted to cooperate the government in managing this crisis. CVS health has announced to reduce opioid prescription and has given detailed guidelines for its use. One among such steps is that their chemist are expected to contact doctors in case of is over prescription of drug.
