U.S. Sucralfate Market
Sucralfate is a hydroxy aluminum salt of sucrose octasulfate that functions as a local mucosal adherent. It forms a coating over ulcers by sticking to the affected area, which protects the area from acid and enzymes and helps ulcers to heal more quickly. Sucralfate can also be used in treating ulcers and upper gastrointestinal disorders of dog, horse, and cat, which may arise due to drugs (particularly non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and corticosteroids), toxic chemical ingestion, liver disease, renal failure, carcinoma, stress (trauma, shock, sepsis, and burns), and inflammatory bowel disease.
Market Dynamics
Increasing clinical trials for exploring different uses of sucralfate for different indications is a major factor driving U.S. sucralfate market growth. For instance, according to the study published by the National Center of Biotechnology Information, in 2016, a clinical trial conducted on Radiation Proctitis patients receiving sucralfate treatment showed 92.3% positive results in 16 weeks.
Furthermore, monitoring of drugs including sucralfate in the U.S. by the government authorities for avoiding fatal conditions in the population is expected to drive the market growth. For instance, in 2017, the U.S. FDA updated name of 'Carafate suspension' to 'Carafate oral suspension' to avoid fatal complications with mistakenly intravenous administration of the drug.
