APAC Anticoccidial Drugs Market

APAC Anticoccidial Drugs Market Size & Growth (2022 to 2027):

The size for the anticoccidial drugs in the Asia Pacific region is estimated to reach USD 514.27 million by 2027 from USD 414.86 Million in 2022, growing at a CAGR of 4.39% during the forecast period 2022 to 2027.

The market for anticoccidial drugs is being pushed by factors such as the rising incidence of Coccidiosis in food-producing and companion animals, increased prophylactic use of anticoccidial drugs, and increased demand for meat proteins, as well as increased awareness about animal health around the region. Furthermore, fewer rigorous regulations and increased government investment in companion animals aid the anticoccidial medicines market's expansion. 

Anticoccidial drugs market expansion in the Asia Pacific is fueled by increased coccidiosis prevalence, innovations in veterinary healthcare, and innovative animal healthcare product releases, particularly in the companion animal sector. The increased need for anticoccidial medications is due to the growing popularity of companion animals such as dogs, cats, and even horses, which are susceptible to Coccidiosis and, if left untreated, can result in death. In addition, over the forecast period, increased demand for animal proteins is expected to boost the market. Furthermore, it is due to rapid population expansion, which increased meat exports and, as a result, indirectly raised the demand for veterinary care. 

According to the WHO, for instance, the cattle sector is under increasing pressure to meet the rising demand for high-value animal protein. The market for anticoccidial drugs in the Asia Pacific was overgrowing due to significant advancements in veterinary care and increased government initiatives. The number of oocytes devoured and the coccidia population defines the severity of the condition. Anticoccidial drugs prevent the spread of Coccidiosis in animals and birds. Anticoccidials are used in feed to avoid disease and lessen the financial impact of subacute infections.

Adopting alternative treatments for Coccidiosis, such as vaccines and herbal cures, is anticipated to stifle the Asia Pacific market for anticoccidial drugs. In addition, the availability of other treatment alternatives on the market, the large sums of money invested in the treatment and prevention of Coccidiosis, and the infections' increasing resistance are all projected to slow market growth.
