Unfractionated Heparin Drug Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast 2017 - 2025

Albany, NY -- (SBWire) -- 01/22/2018 --Unfractionated heparin drug is an anticoagulant drug. It is a high molecular weight heparin drug ranging from 3,000 Da to 30,000 Da. The unfractionated heparin drug is a heterogeneous mixture of linear polysaccharide chains with variable biological activity and molecular weight, and a pentasaccharide that has minimal active fragment. Unfractionated heparin is the most primitive form of heparin and has major applications in kidney dialysis and heart, and lung oxygenation that includes the treatment and prevention of pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, post-operative thrombosis, certain types of coronary artery syndrome, particularly unstable angina, in thrombotic stroke, and hemodialysis.

Unfractionated heparin binds reversibly with anti-thrombin III (ATIII). This enhances the rate at which ATIII inactivates coagulation enzymes such as thrombin factor Xa and factor IIa. Unfractionated heparin is primarily utilized in hospitals for the prevention and treatment of thrombosis. In 2008, numerous consignments of heparin imported to the U.S. from China were contaminated with oversulfated chondroitin sulfate. This led to the establishment of stringent production and purification guidelines worldwide. According to the University of Wisconsin Hospitals and Clinics Authority, unfractionated heparin is a better option as compared to low molecular weight heparin as the former is used intravenously for the treatment of anticoagulation. The adjustment of infusion rate and monitoring is required for the immediate onset of the intravenous unfractionated heparin.

Unfractionated heparin is eliminated through the liver. It gets eliminated faster due to its high molecular weight, and it is highly preferred in dialysis. This is a driving factor for the growth of the global unfractionated heparin drug market. Several studies have confirmed that unfractionated heparin has more specificity than low molecular weight heparin, and its effect can be reversed by using protamine sulfate. This advantage over low molecular weight heparin has led unfractionated heparin to sustain in the market. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), there is a high risk for the development of venous thromboembolism which is caused due to prolonged traveling in passengers via automobile, bus, train, or airplane, for more than four hours. This is one of the driving factors of the market growth. However, increasing use of anticoagulants in dialysis as an alternative has decreased the usage of unfractionated heparin, which is likely to restraint the growth of the market for unfractionated heparin drug during the forecast period.
