The viral hepatitis market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Viral Hepatitis Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Viral hepatitis refers to a group of infectious diseases that primarily affect the liver and are caused by different viruses, including hepatitis A, B, C, D, and E. These viruses can result in inflammation and damage to the liver, leading to a range of symptoms and potential long-term complications. Some of the common indications are fatigue, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, jaundice, etc. Many patients may also experience dark urine, pale stools, muscle and joint aches, a general feeling of unwellness, etc. Chronic hepatitis may not cause noticeable symptoms initially but can lead to long-term liver damage, cirrhosis, and an increased risk of liver cancer. The diagnosis of viral hepatitis involves a combination of clinical evaluation, laboratory tests, and medical history assessment. Blood tests are essential for detecting specific viral markers, including antibodies, antigens, viral genetic material, etc. Various imaging modalities, such as ultrasound, CT scans, MRI, etc., may be used to assess liver health and detect any complications. Additionally, liver biopsy or non-invasive methods, including elastography and serum biomarkers, may be performed to evaluate liver fibrosis or monitor disease progression.
The increasing cases of ingesting contaminated food or water, coupled with the growing prevalence of poor sanitation and inadequate hygiene practices, are primarily driving the viral hepatitis market. In addition to this, the rising incidence of exposure to infected blood or other body fluids through the sharing of contaminated needles or syringes, sexual contact, mother-to-child transmission during childbirth, etc., is also creating a positive outlook for the market. Moreover, the widespread adoption of antiviral medications, such as nucleotide analogs and interferon-alpha, for suppressing viral replication and preventing complications associated with the ailment is further bolstering the market growth. Apart from this, the inflating application of liver-supportive drugs, including hepatoprotective agents like milk thistle extract, to improve liver health, enhance liver cell regeneration, and minimize inflammation is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Additionally, the emerging popularity of nucleic acid testing (NAT), since it allows the direct detection and quantification of viral RNA or DNA in blood samples and is particularly useful in diagnosing acute hepatitis, determining viral load, and assessing disease progression, is expected to drive the viral hepatitis market during the forecast period.
