In Canada the prevalence rate of MS is the highest with closely followed by United States which is the second most affected region with increasing death rates of MS patients. Also the prevalence rate in Germany, Norway and Hungary is high. In 2008 the MS treatment market has shown good results despite the slowdown in US and with this success the probability for further growth has increased.

MS is slowly spreading its reach in the Asian regions. Asia can be a potential market in future.
