Amebiasis Treatment Market Drivers
Increasing approvals and launches of new drugs indicated for the treatment of amebiasis is expected to be a major factor for growth of amebiasis treatment market. For instance, in 2017, Dr. Reddy's Laboratories received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for its Minolira (minocycline) extended-release tablets, indicated for the treatment of a variety of bacterial infections and as adjunctive therapy in acute intestinal amebiasis. Moreover, in 2016, Rising Pharmaceuticals, Inc.—a subsidiary of Aceto Corporation—launched Metronidazole Tablets, 250mg and 500mg, generic version of Flagyl manufactured by G.D. Searle, LLC’s, indicated for the treatment of amebiasis and a variety of anaerobic bacterial infections. In 2016, Mylan Pharmaceuticals Inc. received ANDA approval for its Doryx (Doxycycline Hyclate) Delayed-Release Tablets, 50 mg, indicated for the treatment of acute intestinal amebiasis. Furthermore, increasing prevalence of amebiasis in region with poor sanitation facilities such as Africa and some countries in Asia Pacific is expected to lead to increasing demand for its treatment, which in turn is expected to drive growth of the amebiasis treatment market in the near future. For instance, according to data published by International Research Journal of Biological Sciences, in 2013, the prevalence of amebiasis among school children in Lafia, Nigeria was around 26.7%. The highest prevalence of amebiasis was 40.0% in children of Government Secondary School Tudun Kauri, Lafia. This high prevalence of amebiasis was due to poor environmental/drainage system, unhygienic methods of disposing sewage, and shortage of clean water supply.
