The Global Varicella Zoster Infection Treatment Industry is on track for significant expansion, according to a new report by Future Market Insights (FMI). Titled “Global Varicella Zoster Infection Treatment Industry,” the study forecasts a steady growth trajectory. The market is estimated to have surpassed US$1.5 billion in 2020 and is projected to register a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 4.1% from 2023 to 2028. This upward trend is poised to propel the market valuation to a remarkable US$2.0 billion by 2028.

The surge in growth witnessed in the Varicella Zoster Treatment Industry can be attributed to several key factors. Advances in medical research, coupled with technological innovations, have played a pivotal role in shaping the industry’s upward trajectory. Additionally, there is a growing global awareness of varicella-zoster infection, further fueling the demand for effective treatments.

Acyclovir Leads the Way: In 2022, acyclovir is set to dominate the global varicella zoster infection treatment market, accounting for more than 55.7% of the market share, according to the latest data from Future Market Insights.

Understanding Varicella: Varicella, commonly known as chickenpox, can lead to complications such as secondary bacterial skin infections, cerebellitis, encephalitis, hemorrhagic complications, and viral and bacterial pneumonia when it manifests acutely. The epidemiology of varicella is influenced by climate, with 90% of people in temperate climatic regions becoming infected before adolescence. In tropical climates, Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV) infection occurs later in life, and adults are more susceptible to it than children.

The Challenge of Herpes Zoster: Herpes zoster, or shingles, is a sporadic disease caused by the reactivation of latent VZV in the sensory nerve ganglia. It is characterized by severe pain with a dermatomal distribution and, at times, followed by post-herpetic neuralgia, which can be chronic and debilitating among the geriatric population.

As the Varicella Zoster Infection Treatment Industry continues to evolve, these insights provide valuable information for stakeholders, healthcare professionals, and researchers. The market’s upward trajectory highlights the importance of continued research and development in this critical healthcare segment.

Risk of Varicella in Pregnancy and the Need to Adhere to the Guidelines of Chickenpox Treatment to Bode Well for the Market

Primary infection with varicella zoster in pregnancy may cause maternal mortality or serious morbidity issues. A particular guideline issued in 2015 assesses the evidence regarding maternal and fetal risks of varicella-zoster virus infection in pregnancy. The U.K. Advisory Group and Swiss and Canadian national guidelines prescribe procedures for the use of antiviral drugs in pregnancy. The U.K. Advisory Group provides guidelines for chickenpox as well.

These guidelines recommend oral acyclovir, which should be prescribed for pregnant women within 24 hours once they present the onset of the rash and if they have 20+0 weeks of gestation or beyond. Guidelines are unanimous nevertheless, in recommending that intravenous acyclovir be administered in cases of severe maternal infection. This factor along with the fact that the rate of exposure and transmission is extremely high in this infection and is a threat for pregnant women and kids, is expected to boost the growth of the varicella zoster infection treatment industry.
