Herpes Zoster Market

Market Overview:

The 7 major herpes zoster markets are expected to exhibit a CAGR of 2.61% during 2024-2034.

The herpes zoster market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC's new report titled "Herpes Zoster Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Herpes zoster, also known as shingles, is a type of viral infection that damages the skin and nerves. This condition typically manifests as a painful rash that appears in a localized area of the body, particularly on one side of the torso. Individuals suffering from the ailment may also experience itching, tingling, and burning sensations, as well as general flu-like symptoms, including fever, headache, fatigue, etc. In most cases, the rash develops into small, fluid-filled blisters, which eventually begin to dry out and crust over. The diagnosis of herpes zoster involves a medical evaluation based on the patient's indications and physical examination. Several blood workups, such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and immunofluorescence assays, are also performed to measure the levels of antibodies that are specific to the varicella-zoster virus in the blood. Additionally, the healthcare professional may conduct a Tzanck smear analysis by obtaining a sample from a skin blister and examining it under a microscope to check for the presence of abnormal multinucleated giant cells indicative of the condition. 

The increasing cases of chickenpox infection, in which the virus does not entirely leave the body and instead retreats to sensory nerve cells, are primarily driving the herpes zoster market. In addition to this, the expanding geriatric population, who are more prone to physical and emotional stress that can disrupt the immune system and potentially trigger viral reactivation, is creating a positive outlook for the market. Moreover, the widespread adoption of recombinant zoster vaccine owing to its various advantages, like long-lasting protection, enhanced efficacy, and minimal side effects, is further bolstering the market growth. Apart from this, the rising usage of topical antiviral creams, such as acyclovir and penciclovir, which can be applied directly on the rash to inhibit the replication of the virus, thereby reducing the severity and duration of the disease, is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Additionally, the emerging popularity of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) techniques to aid in early diagnosis by detecting even low levels of viral DNA or RNA in the patient's sample is expected to drive the herpes zoster market during the forecast period.
