Clostridioides Difficile Infection Treatment Market, by Drug Type (Vancomycin, Metronidazole, Fidaxomicin, and Others (late phase drugs, etc.)), by Route of Administration (Oral and Injectable), by Distribution Channel (Hospital Pharmacies, Retail Pharmacies, and Online Pharmacies), and by Region (North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa) - Size, Share, Outlook, and Opportunity Analysis, 2023 - 2030
Clostridiodes Difficile, which produces gram-positive bacterium, is an anaerobic toxin that gets transmitted through the fecal-oral route. The severe infection of clostridium difficile infection is watery diarrhea, abdominal cramping, and pain, which may be severe, dehydration, rapid heart rate, increased white blood cell count, nausea, and kidney failure. Clostridium difficile infection occurs during antibiotic treatment or can be caused due to healthcare-associated infection with clinical manifestations ranging from asymptomatic infection to watery diarrhea or serious intestinal condition such as colitis and colonic perforation. Limited types of drugs such as metronidazole, fidoxamicin, and vancomycin are only available for the treatment of Clostridium difficile infection. In case of any severe pain or toxic megacolon in the abdominal wall, patients undergo surgery for the removal of the infected portion. The high prevalence of this disease and occasional disease outbreaks in emerging economies is expected to drive the growth of clostridioides difficile infection treatment market. However, alternative therapy for a broad-spectrum antibiotic such as cephalosporins or fluoroquinolone will hinder the growth of Clostridioides difficile Infection treatment market .
