Antifungal Agent Market

Global Antifungal Agent Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Drug Class (Polyene, Echinocandins, Allylamines, and Azole), By Dosage Type (Powder, Ointment and Drugs), and By Route Of Administration (Parental, Topical and Oral) Forecast 2022-2028

Published: Jun 2022 | Report Code: OMR2026788 | Category : Pharmaceuticals | Delivery Format: /

The global antifungal agent market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR of 3.1% during the forecast period. Growing effective treatment associated with fungal infections is acting as an important factor driving the growth of the market. Common fungal infections, such as ringworm and fungal nail infections, normally affect the body's exterior surface, whereas fungal diseases affect the body's tissues or internal organs, such as the lungs and brain. Individuals with a weakened immune system, such as those living with HIV/AIDS, are more likely to contract the fungus require effective treatment. Furthermore, chemotherapy patients are vulnerable to invasive fungal infections. Antifungal medications work against fungal infections by either killing or suppressing the growth of the fungus. 

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Global Antifungal Agent Market

The COVID-19 pandemic had impacted the global economy due to a slowdown in the manufacturing of various industries. The global antifungal medicines market has also been hampered by the supply chain slow down. However, the COVID-19 had also impacted the market growth due to patients with a weakened immune system are at a higher risk of contracting a life-threatening fungal infection and developing respiratory problems. For instance, invasive aspergillosis is caused by aspergillus spores that are commonly found in the air we breathe. As a result, there may be an increase in respiratory illnesses, which would support the market development by providing effective treatment. Additionally, antifungal drugs were also in higher demand as the number of cases of black fungus, white fungus, and pink fungus had increased.

Segmental Outlook 

The global antifungal agent market is segmented based on the drug class, dosage type, and route of administration. Based on the drug class type, the market is segmented into polyene, echinocandins, allylamines, and azole. Based on the dosage type, the market is sub-segmented into powder, ointment, and drugs. Based on the route of administration, the market is sub-segmented into parental, topical, and oral.

Global Antifungal Agent Market Share by Drug Class, 2021 (%)

Global Antifungal Agent Market Share by Drug Class

The Azole Segment is Anticipated to Hold a Prominent Share in the Global Antifungal Agent Market

Azoles are synthetic and semi-synthetic chemicals that are commonly used to treat fungal infections, both superficial and invasive. Thrush, yeast infection, candidiasis, aspergillosis, tinea versicolor, athlete's foot, jock itch, ringworm, fungal infections, systemic mycosis, and seborrheic dermatitis are all treated with these medications. There are fewer side effects, fewer major drug interactions, and better absorption and distribution qualities in these pharmaceuticals. Azole's dominance over other categories can be attributed to the aforementioned advantages. As a result, azoles are currently the most commonly used and researched antifungal agent class. Different formulations of the medications are offered such as capsule, cream, sterile IV solution, lotion, vaginal cream, and tablet.
