The global hydroxychloroquine market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period. Hydroxychloroquine is a class of drugs which is used for the treatment of malaria, lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, and Q fever. The significant prevalence of malaria and the rising incidences of COVID-19 are the major factors contributing to market growth. Currently, emerging demand for hydroxychloroquine has been reported across the globe for the treatment of COVID-19 patients. There is a considerable rise in the incidences of COVID-19 patients recorded across the globe. As per the World Health Organization (WHO), on 7th April 2020, the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases reported was 68,766 with 5,020 mortalities, which is increasing day by day.
On 8th April 2020, the confirmed cases were 73,639 with 6,695 mortalities. Due to the emerging cases of COVID-19, the government is seeking for effective alternatives for the patients’ treatment. As no drugs are approved for COVID-19, the countries are looking for options that are readily available for the treatment of COVID-19. Therefore, most of the countries, including the US, Brazil, Spain, Bahrain, Germany, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh have shifted their focus towards hydroxychloroquine owing to its demonstrated antiviral activity which may be useful to stimulate the immune system. This, in turn, is contributing to the rising adoption of hydroxychloroquine drugs.
Market Segmentation
The global hydroxychloroquine market is segmented into application and dosage type. Based on application, the market is classified into COVID-19, malaria, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus erythematosus, and others. Based on dosage type, the market is classified into 100 mg, 200 mg, 400 mg, 600 mg, and 800 mg. 200 mg and 400 mg are being significantly recommended for the treatment of COVID-19 patients in addition to the standard treatment for nearly five consecutive days. Although, 400 mg is a high dosage form for some patients which may increase the risk of cardiac arrhythmia. Hence, 200 mg dose is also preferred over 400 mg for some COVID-19 patients. The dosage type relies on the age and the effect of the first dose on the patients.
Hydroxychloroquine were anticipated to have major share in malaria treatment in 2018
Hydroxychloroquine was anticipated to have significant application in malaria treatment in 2018. As per the WHO, in 2018, there were nearly 228 million malaria cases reported across the globe and the number of mortalities due to malaria stood at 405,000 in 2018. Children under the age group of 5 years are highly susceptible group affected by malaria; in 2018 as they accounted for 67% (272,000) of overall mortalities reported due to malaria globally. The rising incidences of malaria have led to the adoption of hydroxychloroquine to prevent and treat acute attacks of malaria. Hydroxychloroquine has shown effectiveness against the malarial parasites, including Plasmodium ovale (P. ovale), P. malariae, P. vivax, and vulnerable strains of P. falciparum.

Regional Outlook
The global hydroxychloroquine market is classified into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest of the World (RoW). North America is estimated to hold a significant share in the market during the forecast period owing to the rising prevalence of lupus erythematosus in the region. Currently, the US is among the major consumers of hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19 patients. The US had asked for 48 lakh hydroxychloroquine tablets. However, India has allowed 35.82 lakhs hydroxychloroquine tablets along with 9 metric tonne (MT) active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). These factors are contributing to the increasing demand for hydroxychloroquine in the region.
