Global veterinary antibiotics market is estimated to be valued at USD 4.18 Bn in 2025 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 4.0% during the forecast period (2025-2032). Veterinary antibiotics market has witnessed significant growth due to rising animal healthcare expenditure and increasing prevalence of zoonotic diseases. Growing animal adoption, particularly in developed regions, has also boosted demand for antibiotics to prevent and treat various infections in companion animals. Moreover, changing lifestyles and increasing focus on protein-rich diets from animal sources have revved up meat production across the globe. Large scale livestock production practices necessitate the proper use of antibiotics to promote growth and prevent diseases in animals reared for meat consumption.
Market Dynamics
Rising consumption of livestock-derived food products can drive the veterinary antibiotics market growth. In 2019, according to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, global meat production is projected to grow approximately 15% in the period between 2020 and 2030. However, overuse and misuse of antibiotics in the livestock sector has led to antibiotic resistance, thus, hampering the market growth. Alternative treatment options including bacteriophages and probiotics present significant opportunities for market players. Growing veterinary healthcare infrastructure in developing nations can create new avenues for antibiotics manufacturers in the near future.
