HEPATITIS DRUGS MARKET SIZE AND SHARE ANALYSIS - GROWTH TRENDS AND FORECASTS (2026 - 2033)

Hepatitis refers to an inflammatory condition of the liver. Viral infections of the liver classified as hepatitis include hepatitis A, B, C, D, and E. Hepatitis A is an acute, short-term disease, while hepatitis B, C, and D are most likely to become ongoing and chronic. Hepatitis E is usually acute but can be particularly dangerous in pregnant women which increase maternal and fetal mortality and morbidity.

Market Dynamics

Increasing prevalence of hepatitis worldwide is expected to boost growth of the hepatitis drugs market. According to World Health Organization (WHO), in 2015, 257 million people were living with chronic hepatitis B infection, and in 2016, while 4.5 million (16.7%) of the people were diagnosed with hepatitis B . Hepatitis B can be prevented by safe and effective vaccines. Additionally, the WHO aims for eliminating viral hepatitis infections which include 90% reduction of new infections, 65% reduction in deaths resulting from viral hepatitis infections worldwide by 2030.

However, factors such as longer development and approval time for hepatitis drugs is expected to hinder growth of the hepatitis drugs market during the forecast period. For instance, according to the National Center for Biotechnology Information 2017, the development of a new medicine for hepatitis from target identification through approval for marketing, takes 12 years or longer.
