Overview


According to FutureWise analysis the market for antiviral drugs in 2023 is US$ 61.42 billion, and is expected to reach US$ 84.84 billion by 2031 at a CAGR of 4.12%.

Antiviral drugs are a class of medications used to treat viral infections. Viruses are different from bacteria and other microorganisms because they cannot reproduce or carry out metabolic processes on their own. Instead, they require a host cell to replicate and spread. Antiviral drugs work by targeting specific steps in the viral replication cycle, either by inhibiting viral entry into host cells, interfering with viral genome replication, or preventing the assembly and release of new virions.

One type of antiviral drug is nucleoside/nucleotide analogs, which mimic the molecular makeup of natural nucleotides and interfere with viral replication by inhibiting the synthesis of viral DNA or RNA. Examples of nucleoside analogs include acyclovir and tenofovir. Another type of antiviral drug is protease inhibitors, which target viral enzymes that are essential for the replication of certain viruses, such as HIV and hepatitis C virus (HCV). Examples of protease inhibitors include ritonavir and lopinavir/ritonavir, and glecaprevir/pibrentasvir. Integrase inhibitors are another class of antiviral drugs that target the enzyme integrase, which is required to integrate viral DNA into host cells. Examples of integrase inhibitors include raltegravir and dolutegravir. Direct-acting antivirals are a newer class of antiviral drugs that target specific viral proteins or enzymes, such as polymerase inhibitors for HCV or neuraminidase inhibitors for influenza virus.

Recent developments by key players in Antiviral Drugs Market:

  • In January 2022, To treat people in India with COVID-19, Lupin introduced the antiviral medication Molnupiravir under the trade name Molnulup.

The antiviral drugs market has been experiencing dynamic growth due to several factors. One of the key drivers of this market is the increasing prevalence of viral diseases, such as HIV, hepatitis, and influenza. As the global population expands and becomes more interconnected, the risk of viral outbreaks and pandemics also increases, driving demand for antiviral drugs. Another factor influencing the growth of the antiviral drugs market is the increasing availability of effective antiviral therapies. Advances in biotechnology and pharmaceutical research have led to the development of new and more effective antiviral drugs, including direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) for hepatitis C and integrase inhibitors for HIV. This has created new opportunities for pharmaceutical companies to develop and market these drugs to a growing patient population. In addition to these factors, government initiatives and policies have also played a role in driving the antiviral drugs market. For example, the US government has launched several initiatives to combat viral diseases, such as the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief and the National HIV/AIDS Strategy. These initiatives have helped increase awareness of viral diseases and improve access to antiviral therapies, which has driven demand for these drugs.

However, there are some challenges the antiviral drugs market faces, such as the high cost of antiviral therapies and the emergence of drug-resistant viral strains. These challenges have led to calls for more affordable and accessible antiviral therapies, as well as continued research and development of new drugs to combat emerging viral threats.

In conclusion, the antiviral drugs market is expected to continue experiencing dynamic growth in the coming years, driven by the increasing prevalence of viral diseases, advances in antiviral therapies, and government initiatives to combat viral outbreaks and pandemics.
