Market Dynamics

Introduction

Cephalosporin is a bactericidal and β-lactam antibiotic mainly derived from the fungus Acremonium that is used to treat bactericidal infections such as skin infections, pneumonia, tonsillitis, strep throat, gonorrhea, staph infections, and bronchitis among others. It inhibits enzymes in the cell wall of the susceptible bacteria and disrupts cell synthesis. Cephalosporin is majorly designated for prophylaxis as well as for the treatment of infections caused by bacteria.

COVID-19 Impact

The outbreak of the COVID-19 virus has considerably affected the cephalosporin industry. Cephalosporin has not been proven highly effective against viruses. β-lactam antibiotics such as cephalosporin possess a bacteriostatic effect. The bacteriostatic action results in the action of subduing the growth of bacteria. β-lactam antibiotics act by preventing peptidoglycan synthase, which is an enzyme necessary for the growth of bacterial cell walls. However, cephalosporin can help to obstruct SARS-CoV-2 but has a minor impact on the market growth.

Market Drivers

The growing prevalence of infectious diseases and the increase in funding for the development of antibiotics are some of the key factors bolstering the product demand. Additionally, the surge in R&D activities for the production of combination drugs and the rising demand for antibacterials further augment the market growth. Moreover, the discovery of innovative prospect molecules and the introduction of novel combination therapies to treat antibiotic-resistant infections are likely to provide lucrative opportunities to industry participants. However, the side effects of cephalosporin are likely to hinder the industry's expansion.
