What is Raynaud’s Phenomenon Management Market?
Raynaud’s phenomenon is caused by episodic vasospasm and ischemia of the extremities in response to cold or emotional stimuli, which result in a characteristic triphasic color change in extremities usually fingers or toes from white to blue, to red. Raynaud’s phenomenon is in direct reaction to stimuli, or secondary to a primary condition. In 10-20% of cases it may be the first presentation of, or may precede the onset of, a connective tissue disease (such as scleroderma or mixed connective tissue disease) so that underlying causes must be ruled out. Raynaud’s phenomenon is generated by a change in temperature rather than simply exposure to cold. The average age of onset is lower in women as compared to men, and prevalence is higher in colder climates. The primary reasons for getting Raynauds disease are the extremely cold temperature, stress, and hypertension and the chances of this disease might increase because of diseases like lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, and Sjogren's syndrome. The Raynauds disease affects up to 20% of the adult population around the world most common in females than in men, the primary type of this disease usually begins at the age of 20s or 30s and the second type might develop at any age depending on the cause.

A number of pharmacologic treatments have been studied, but none provide a cure and none has been approved for this indication in the United States. In an international study of patients with self-reported Raynaud phenomenon, 82% reported that at least one currently used medication was tolerated, but only 16% reported that at least one current medication was effective. For the primary Raynaud phenomenon, the first line of therapy consists of lifestyle measures, such as avoidance of precipitating factors and the use of gloves. If these prove inadequate, the patient may be considered for calcium channel blocker treatment; nifedipine is the usual choice. If lifestyle changes don't control Raynaud's, you may need medicines or surgery. Medicines are used to improve blood flow to the fingers and toes. Examples of medicines used to treat Raynaud's include calcium channel blockers, alpha-blockers, prescription skin creams, and ACE inhibitors (used less often).
