The anthelmintic drugs market is likely to experience a significant growth rate of 3.8% from 2023-2032 owing to increasing market demand from pharmaceuticals sector - Allied Market Research
Anthelmintic drugs play an essential role in global health initiatives due to the global prevalence of parasitic worm infections, which affect millions of people around the globe. These infections are caused by nematode, trematode, and cestode, and are particularly prevalent in countries with poor sanitation and lack of access to healthcare. In many developing countries, soil-transmitted (STH) helminths such as roundworm, whipworm, and hookworm are endemic. These infections cause serious health problems, particularly in children, which can affect their growth, cognition, and quality of life.
For instance, according to an article published by National Centre for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) in 2021, globally there are around 3.5 million people affected with intestinal parasitic infections, and more than 200,000 deaths are reported annually. Such incidences of such parasitic infections are increasing the need for anthelmintic, which propels the market growth. In addition, there are also zoonotic infections, which are transmitted by animals to humans and can lead to serious health problems, such as hydatid disease which is a complication of the tapeworm. Combating these infections not only benefits the individual, but also contributes to the well-being of the community, increases economic productivity, and improves the quality of life.
In addition, there is an increase in government expenditure and investment in healthcare infrastructure, including the allocation of funds to treat and prevent various diseases, such as parasitic worm infections, owing to economic growth in emerging economies. There is an increase in availability of affordable and accessible anthelmintic drug for the population owing to increased financial resources for healthcare. Economic growth often leads to improved access to healthcare facilities, such as clinics, hospitals and pharmacies. This improved accessibility means that people living in rural or poor areas, where the prevalence of parasitic infections may be higher, can now visit healthcare facilities to be diagnosed and treated for these conditions. The demand for anthelmintic drugs increases as more people can access healthcare facilities.
