Chronic Pain Affects 1 in 5 US Adults

Chronic pain is one of the largest health issues in adults worldwide.  In the US alone, 1 in 5 use adults are affected.  And in a 2023 NIH study, almost 10% of US adults have high-impact chronic pain (HICP), limiting life or work activities on most days or every day over the last three months.

Chronic Pain Statistics

  • 1 in 5 US adults is affected by chronic pain
  • 1 in 10 US adults has High-Impact Chronic Pain (HICP)
  • Incidence of new chronic pain cases is high, at 52.4 cases per 1,000 persons per year.
  • Chronic pain is high persistent, with 61.4% reporting pain still suffering a year later.
  • Only 10.4% of patients recovered from pain from the prior year.
  • Chronic pain is also a significant cause of chronic insomnia

Chronic pain affects each of us, or those around us.  And we need safe, effective, natural therapeutics as alternatives to current synthetic therapeutics and opiates.  

The Irvine Labs team has therapeutics for daytime pain management, nighttime pain management, and topical/localized pain management that are going through the FDA approval process.  Phase 1 field studies showed that each therapeutic was very safe and highly effective for each associated indication.  We look forward to helping people live pain-free without the negative and dangerous side effects associated with current drugs.
