Viral Gastroenteritis Treatment Market Trends, Analysis and Forecast 2018 – 2026

Viral gastroenteritis is a contiguous infection. It is also known as stomach flu. It is an intestinal infection marked by inflammation of the mucus membranes of the gastrointestinal tract i.e. the stomach, the large intestine, and the small intestine. Around 20 different types of viruses can cause gastroenteritis. As there is no cure for viral gastroenteritis, prevention is the only way to avoid the infection. Signs and symptoms of viral gastroenteritis include nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramp, watery non-bloody diarrhea, muscle ache or headache, and low-grade fever. The window period for symptoms after the infection ranges from one to three days. Viral gastroenteritis can affect all age groups. Children are more prone to viral gastroenteritis and they account for 70% of the cases reported. Viral gastroenteritis can be diagnosed by using the standard serological stool test or nucleic acid testing. Nucleic acid testing-based diagnosis is a rapid and sensitive method used for the diagnosis of viral gastroenteritis.

Adulterated food, poor sanitation led by urbanization, and advancements in the vaccine technology and probiotics are some of the factors driving the viral gastroenteritis treatment market. Stringent regulatory framework and high financial investment required in research and development of drugs, vaccines, and diagnosis kits are some of the factors that are likely to hamper the global viral gastroenteritis treatment market during the forecast period. Vaccines for noroviruses as etiological agents causing gastroenteritis are undergoing clinical trials. This is likely to boost the health care industry in the near future.

The viral gastroenteritis treatment market can be segmented based on product, virus type, end-user, and region. In terms of virus type, the market can be divided into noroviruses, rotaviruses, astroviruses, adenoviruses, and others. Noroviruses are major etiological agents for foodborne infection. Contaminated food and water is a major source of gastroenteritis caused by noroviruses. Furthermore, it affects all age groups. Thus, the noroviruses segment is expected to hold a major share of the viral gastroenteritis market during the forecast period. On the other hand, rotavirus majorly affects children aged below five years. Thus, rotaviruses is likely to be a rapidly expanding segment during the forecast period.
