During the forecast period between 2023 and 2029, BlueWeave expects global herpes simplex virus (HSV) treatment market size to grow at a CAGR of 3.83% reaching a value of USD 2.17 billion by 2029. Major growth drivers for the global herpes simplex virus (HSV) treatment market include an increasing prevalence of herpes infections, rising awareness about available treatment options, and the growing demand for effective therapies. Increasing adoption of antiviral drugs and the development of novel treatment approaches are further contributing to market growth. Herpes simplex, a widespread strain of the herpes virus, affects a substantial portion of the global population, with approximately 3.7 billion individuals estimated to be impacted. This highly contagious infection can be transmitted through various bodily fluids such as saliva, vaginal secretions, or semen, often without the carrier's knowledge.

Impact of COVID-19 on Global Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) Treatment Market

COVID-19 pandemic had a dual impact on the global herpes simplex virus (HSV) treatment market. On the one hand, the increased focus on healthcare and hygiene practices raised awareness about the importance of managing infectious diseases like HSV. It increased the demand for HSV treatments. On the other hand, the diversion of healthcare resources and disruption of supply chains as the pandemic posed challenges for accessing and delivering HSV treatments. Also, the prioritization of COVID-19-related research and development temporarily slowed down advancements in HSV treatment options. The overall impact of COVID-19 on the global herpes simplex virus (HSV) treatment market remains complex and may vary across regions.

Global Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) Treatment Market – By Drug Type

Based on drug type, the global herpes simplex virus (HSV) treatment market is divided into Acyclovir, Valacyclovir, and Famciclovir segments. Valacyclovir segment held the highest share in the global herpes simplex virus treatment market during 2022. This can be attributed to its cost-effectiveness, wide availability, and remarkable efficacy in inhibiting the replication of the herpes virus within the body, thus effectively managing the symptoms associated with herpes outbreaks. Valacyclovir is particularly favored for its superior absorption rate compared to acyclovir, making it a preferred choice for treating cold sores, as oral acyclovir is susceptible to rapid breakdown by the liver. Also, a study published in the American Journal of Ophthalmology has demonstrated the comparable effectiveness of a 500 mg valacyclovir dose in preventing the recurrence of HSV eye disease to that of an 800 mg acyclovir dose. Meanwhile, the acyclovir segment is expected to witness fastest growth during the forecast period. This can be attributed to the widespread acceptance of acyclovir as the industry benchmark for the treatment of herpes infections. Also, the market's growth is fueled by the introduction of over-the-counter drugs for infection treatment.
