Italy Anti-Viral Drug Market Executive Summary

Italy's National Health Service (NHS) is decentralized and regionally based. In 2019, Italy spent 8.7 % of its GDP on healthcare, compared to the EU average of 9.9 %. In the same year, per capita spending reached EUR 2 525. Outpatient care was the largest category of health spending in Italy in 2019, accounting for one-third of current health expenditure – slightly higher than spending on inpatient services. Out-of-pocket (OOP) expenditure as a share of health spending in Italy increased from 20.5 % in 2010 to 23.2 % in 2019. Voluntary health insurance plays a minor role in Italy, representing just 2.8 % of total health spending. A large proportion of OOP payments in Italy are spent on outpatient medical care, making up 45 % of the total, and on outpatient pharmaceuticals, which constitute 30 % of total OOP spending.

The pharmaceutical industry is responsible for the research, development, production, and distribution of medications. Pharma revenues worldwide reached $1.42 trillion in 2021 due to the market's rapid growth over the previous two decades. With the introduction of new technology as well as more economical and effective manufacturing techniques, the pharmaceutical industry has experienced a significant transition. Additionally, the market growth has been positively driven by rising investment flow in this sector.

The market for antiviral drugs, which was valued at USD 36.98 billion in 2021, is anticipated to grow at a 3.4% CAGR in terms of revenue over the projected period. During the forecast period, rising rates of influenza, Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), and other viral respiratory infections, the development of novel and cutting-edge drug formulations, an increase in public awareness, and a surge in product innovations because of rising Research and Development (R&D) activities are anticipated to propel market revenue growth.

In the upcoming years, it is anticipated that a large number of new drugs will be developed as a result of growing cooperation for the development and manufacture of antiviral drugs. To lessen the burden of treating viral infections, the major market players are working together to research and develop new medications.

The Europe Anti-Viral Drug Market size is at around US $ 8.5 Bn in 2021 and witnessed a CAGR of -0.2% from 2022-2030.

Market Dynamics

Market Growth Drivers Analysis

Over the course of the forecast period, rising viral infection rates, rising government initiatives to combat viral infections, and rising antiviral drug approval are anticipated to fuel market expansion.

Market Restraints

A significant barrier to the expansion of the market's revenue is the lack of accessible, affordable, and broad-spectrum antiviral medication options. Since it takes time to create a targeted, safe, and effective antiviral from scratch, market revenue growth is anticipated to be constrained. Future viral pandemics highlight the need for broad-spectrum antiviral medications like direct-acting antivirals, which can be quickly and widely deployed to stop viral spread while effective vaccines are being developed. During the forecast period, market revenue growth may be restrained by the requirement for high investments in R&D activities for the introduction of new and efficient antiviral drugs.
