The herpes simplex virus treatment market size valued for $1,724.27 million in 2021 and is estimated to reach $2,126.91 million by 2031, exhibiting a CAGR of 2.1% from 2022 to 2031.
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) is a common viral infection that affects many people worldwide. There are two types of herpes simplex virus including type 1 (HSV-1) and type 2 (HSV-2). HSV-1 is usually associated with oral herpes, causing cold sores or fever blisters around the mouth. This type of herpes also causes genital herpes if it is transmitted through oral sex. HSV-2 is the most common cause of genital herpes, but it also causes oral herpes if it is transmitted through genital-to-oral contact. HSV can spread through sexual contact and virus also be transmitted in other ways. Herpes simplex virus treatment includes antiviral medications, topical creams or ointments, and home remedies to manage symptoms. The use of antiviral drugs has shown promising results in treating the disease.
The global herpes simplex virus treatment market is majorly driven by increase in the incidences of herpes viral infections. In addition, rise in R&D activities for herpes simplex virus and development of newer & advanced formulations, such as tablets and creams, are expected to fuel the market growth. For instance, AiCuris Anti-infective Cures AG is a German biopharmaceutical company that is developing a new antiviral drug (Pritelivir) for the treatment of HSV infections. This drug, Pritelivir, works by inhibiting the virus from replicating and has been shown to be effective in reducing viral shedding and the frequency of infections in clinical trials. Thus, rise in R&D activities for herpes simplex virus propels the market growth.
In contrast, limited awareness about the diseases such as sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and herpes virus in underdeveloped countries impedes the growth of the market. However, there is an increase in awareness of herpes infections, with rise in number of people are getting tested and diagnosed. This leads to increase in the demand for effective treatments in developed countries.
Moreover, development and approvals of drugs for herpes simplex virus and growth opportunities in the emerging economies of Asia-Pacific and LAMEA regions are anticipated to drive the market growth during the forecast period. For instance, in November 2020, Amneal Pharmaceuticals, LLC announced that it has received the approval for its Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for Acyclovir Cream, 5%, a generic version of Zovirax for treatment of recurrent herpes labialis (cold sores) in immunocompetent adults and adolescents 12 years of age and older.
The herpes simplex virus treatment market is segmented into type, drug type, distribution channel, and region. By type, the market is categorized into herpes simplex virus-1 infection, and herpes simplex virus-2 infection. By drug type, the market is classified into acyclovir, valacyclovir, and famciclovir.
