Compound Clotrimazole Ointment Market Foreseen to Grow Exponentially by 2026

Posted: Feb 10, 2019
Compound clotrimazole ointment contains clotrimazole. It is a topical cream used to treat candidiasis, tinea versicolor, and dermal infections. It also helps in reducing itching, cracking, and burning in skin caused by infection. Candida (a type of fungus) is the causative agent of candidiasis and tinea versicolor is caused by Malassezia furfur. Clotrimazole is a synthetic antifungal agent. It is an imidazole derivative. It inhibits the biosynthesis of ergosterol, a component of fungal membrane responsible for affecting the cell membrane permeability and enzyme system which in turn causes cell lysis. Chemical name of clotrimazole is {1-(o-Chloro-?,?-diphenylbenzyl)imidazole}. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, nearly 46,000 cases of invasive candidiasis are reported in the U.S. each year.
Broad spectrum of compound clotrimazole creams for dermal infection, rise in prevalence of antifungal infection, increase in awareness about dermal infection and its severity, and advancement in the field of drug discovery & formulation are the factors projected to propel the global compound clotrimazole ointment market during the forecast period. Stringent regulatory guidelines regarding efficacy and safety of compound clotrimazole ointment and contraindications associated with its components for sensitive individuals, and availability of substitutes in the pharmaceutical market are anticipated to restrain the global compound clotrimazole ointment market.

Growth of the market in North America and Europe is attributed to high per capital income of individuals in major developed countries in these regions.
