Global Antifungal Drugs Market Growth is Influenced by Rising Prevalence of Fungal Infections Coupled With an Increase in Awareness | Reports and Data

NEW YORK, September 17, 2019 (Newswire.com) - ​The global antifungal drugs market is expected to reach USD 13.03 Billion by 2026, according to a new report by Reports and Data. Antifungal drugs are used to treat fungal infections. Rising prevalence of fungal infections and fungal diseases is one of the most significant factors anticipated to boost the market demand in the upcoming years. Though most of the infections caused by fungus are non-fatal in nature, they cause great inconvenience to the people suffering from it and as a result would require proper medication for their cure.

An increase in the level of disposable income of the people coupled with increasing awareness towards healthy well-being is likely to boost the growth of the market in the future. An increase in the population of people with weak immunity who are vulnerable to fungal infection and an increase in the elderly population are also forecast to drive the market in the future.

Additionally, increased investments made in R&D along with public-private partnership agreements in the pharmaceutical industry to come up with novel and more effective drugs for treating fungal infections as well as the increasing demand for OTC (over-the-counter) antifungal drugs, especially for treatment for skin-related infection, is causative of the growth of the market.

Availability of generic drugs and conventional therapies for fungal infections may create hindrances in the growth of the market in the forecast period.
