Healthcare Publications Mucormycosis Market

Market Research Future has added a report titled “Mucormycosis Market Research Report- Global Forecast till 2023” to its offering. Market Scenario: Mucormycosis (zygomycosis) is a serious but rare fungal infection caused by a group of molds called mucormycetes. Moreover, inhaling fungal spores from the air can affect the lungs and sinuses, the fungus also invades the skin through wounds such as cut, scrape, burn, or other type of skin trauma. There are approximately 1.5 million different species of fungi on the earth, however, only around 300 are responsible for causing diseases and infections in humans. Fungal infection may affect anyone, but they are most common in people with weakened immune systems and can occur in nearly any part of the body. Risk factors for developing mucormycosis include uncontrolled diabetes, cancer, organ transplant, neutropenia, skin trauma such as cuts, scrapes, punctures, or burns.

Amphotericin B, posaconazole, and isavuconazole are medications given intravenously. Furthermore, posaconazole and isavuconazole can also be administered orally. Often, mucormycosis requires surgery to remove the infected tissue. The prognosis of mucormycosis is usually poor. It depends on various factors such as the overall health of the patient and ability to respond to treatments, the speed of diagnosis, and treatment provided. For instance, the mortality rate with rhinocerebral and GI mucormycosis is about 85% while the mortality rate for patients with other types of mucormycosis is about 50%. Patients who survive this infection often end up having disabilities such as blindness, limb loss, organ dysfunctions among others. The market growth is mainly driven by increasing prevalence of fungal infections, availability of wide range of products, and rising incident of immunological diseases. Moreover, increasing awareness about fungal infection and increasing government support for research & development have fuelled the market growth. However, side effects of the treatment and presence of misbranded and spurious drugs may slow the growth of the market. There are a number of medicines available in the market for the treatment of fungal infections such as oral and intravenous medicines, creams, sprays, shampoos, solutions, and pessaries. Rising incidence of immunological diseases and availability of a wide range of products has driven the growth of the global mucormycosis market. Furthermore, rising geriatric population, increasing government support, and increasing healthcare expenditure have fueled the growth of the market. However, side effects of the drugs and presence of misbranded drugs may hinder the growth of the market. The global market for mucormycosis is expected to grow at a CAGR of approximately 7.3% during the forecast period, 2017-2023.
