Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/14/2019 -- Coccidiosis is a widespread disease caused by a single cell parasite that can be seen only with the help of a microscope. Every livestock species as well as wild animals can be infected by coccidiosis, which is particularly prevalent when animals or birds are grouped together in significant numbers. The disease results in lower egg production in chickens and is responsible for mortality in the flock. Commonly, three to four species of coccidian are responsible for the outbreak of the disease. The severity of the disease depends on the number of oocyte ingested and on the species of coccidia. Anticoccidial drugs are those entities that combat the progression of coccidiosis in animals or birds. Anticoccidials are administered in the feed to prevent disease and minimize the economic loss often associated with sub-acute infections. Prophylactic use of anticoccidial drugs is preferred many a times as most of the damage occurs before clinical signs become apparent.

Based on drug entity, the anticoccidial drugs market can be categorized into ionophores and synthetic anticoccidials. The ionophores segment can be further divided into monovalent, monovalent glycoside, and divalent. Ionophores are the fermentation products of fungi species. They are extensively used as anticoccidial agents. Salinomycin, lasalocid, and monensin are the most commonly used ionophores. In terms of geography, the anticoccidial drugs market can be segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa.
North America accounts for a significant anticoccidial drugs market share in terms of revenue, due to a well-established infrastructure in immunological research, highly organized farming, increased demand for animal protein, high pet ownership, greater emphasis on prevention and wellness by veterinarians, and rise in spending on medicine. According to the USDA Economic Research Service, poultry is the fastest growing meat product in the organic products anticoccidial drugs market in the U.S..
