APAC Antiviral Drugs Market Size & Growth (2019 – 2024)

As per the research report, the size of the Asia-Pacific Antiviral Drugs Market is valued at USD 6.12 billion in 2019 and is expected to reach USD 8.24 billion by 2024, growing at a CAGR of 6.12% during the forecast period 2019-2024.

Antiviral Drugs helps in combating viral infections by hampering the replication of viruses and strengthening the immune response to the viral infection. From the past few years resistance is observed among viruses against different antiviral drugs with increasing diversity of viruses. This challenge leads to the evolution of broad spectrum antiviral drugs that specifically attack viruses at specified targets such as DNA Polymerase, NS3 Protease, & Reverse Transcriptase. These drugs are used to prevent or cure different viral infections such as HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis, influenza, and other viral infections. Asia-Pacific is one of the emerging region for Antiviral Drugs.

The growth of Antiviral drugs in Asia-Pacific market is majorly driven by factors such as increased public awareness, rise in healthcare expenditure, introduction of new and innovative products, and increase in viral infection incidences. In addition, increasing diseased population and rising demand for antiviral drugs are further stimulating the antiviral drugs market. The key restraints of the market are high cost involved in drug development and increase in demand for alternative medicines such as naturopathy, homeopathy, and oriental medicines among others. Majority of population, especially in India and China rely on traditional medicines for treating flu like cold, cough and viral fever.
