The global anticoccidial drugs market was valued at $171.3 million in 2021, and is projected to reach $257.8 million by 2031, registering a CAGR of 4.2% from 2022 to 2031.
Coccidiosis is one of the most common diseases in the poultry population is caused by protozoan parasites of the genus Eimeria. These are obligated intracellular parasites with complex life cycles including sexual and asexual stages. These parasites affect the intestine making it prone to other diseases (necrotic enteritis) and reducing the ability of this organ to absorb nutrients. This disease is transmitted or spread by mechanical carriers such as insects and wild birds. However, the Eimeria eggs (oocysts) can be mechanically transported by wild birds, these parasites are host-specific and thus wild birds do not serve as a biological reservoir. Hence, this disease can be controlled by the help of anticoccidial drugs. The short life cycle of a broiler eliminates Eimeria completely from the gut by using the drugs like coccidicides that kill the parasites.
The growth of the anticoccidial drugs market is driven by the increase in development of advanced anticoccidial drugs, increase in the government initiatives for the awareness about the coccidiosis and its medications. Moreover, the high demand of animal protein food such as meat, milk, and others, increase in the outsourcing of the development of the anticoccidial drugs, and the development in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries also helps in the growth of the market. However, a stringent government regulations that restricts the usage of anticoccidial drugs in livestock and the use of alternative medicines such as vaccines and herbal medicines to treat coccidiosis are expected to hinder the growth of this market. Conversely, the rise in awareness about the new products available at affordable rates is expected to create lucrative opportunities for the market.
