Antimycobacterial drugs are used to treat infections caused by members of Mycobacterium genus. Mycobacterium genus includes M. tuberculosis, M. leprae, and M. avium-intracellulare which cause tuberculosis, leprosy, and atypical mycobacteria, respectively. Tuberculosis and leprosy are the most common infections caused by mycobacteria genus. M. avium-intracellulare bacteria are usually present in water and soil and are less harmful to humans compared to M. tuberculosis. Therefore, infections caused by these bacteria are called atypical and non-tuberculous infections. Infections caused by mycobacteria are treatable, but usually require more than one medicine due to the tendency of bacteria to develop resistance to drugs. Increase in government initiatives for the treatment of TB, rise in prevalence of mycobacterial diseases such as tuberculosis and leprosy, surge in awareness about infections, favorable reimbursement policies, and resistance developed by bacteria for antimycobacterial drugs are the major factors expected to drive the global antimycobacterial drugs market. However, low availability of proper diagnostic facilities for diseases such as leprosy is likely to restrain the market. Development of novel drug delivery systems affecting bacterial resistance and reducing the amount of drugs required for the complete treatment of infection are the recent trends in the global antimycobacterial drugs market.

Based on distribution channel, the global antimycobacterial drugs market can be divided into hospital pharmacies, retail pharmacies, and online pharmacies. The hospital pharmacies segment dominated the antimycobacterial drugs market in 2017 due to easy availability of leprosy and tuberculosis medications in government hospitals.
