The veterinary auto-immune therapeutics are drugs which are used when the immune system does not work properly in animals and starts to attack the own tissues or organs. Some examples of auto-immune diseases in animals are pemphigus vulgaris, autoimmune haemolytic anemia, canine systemic lupus, rheumatoid arthritis etc. These diseases can occur with no identifiable cause or can result from infections, cancer, or specific drugs. The focus of auto-immune therapeutics is to control the immunological response. They are used to decrease or reduce the symptoms and inflammation, decrease the associated pain, or inhibit the inappropriate immune response.
 

COVID-19 Impact

Many veterinary hospitals and clinics experienced temporary closures or restrictions during the pandemic as a result of lockdowns, social distancing laws, and the prioritization of essential services. Only serious veterinary cases were permitted to enter veterinary hospitals during such times. Hence, Covid-19 has a significant influence on the entire veterinary pharmaceuticals market including auto-immune disease therapeutics.
 

Travel and commuting issues hampered market expansion, which ultimately resulted in a decline in the demand for veterinary auto-immune treatments. Moreover, the pandemic caused disruption in the supply chain, including in the animal health industry. Supply and demand were severely impacted by the loss of labour and human resources, which restrained expansion.
 

On the other hand, the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a significant rise in pet ownership. During lockdowns, a large population sought companionship, leading to a surge in pet adoption. This increase in pet ownership has positively impacted the overall animal healthcare market.  The increasing prevalence of veterinary auto-immune diseases leads to the increase in the demand for faster and efficient therapeutic and treatment options.
 

Veterinary Auto-immune Therapeutics Market Trends

Some key trends in the market includes growing awareness among pet owners and veterinarians regarding autoimmune diseases in animals, and rising demand for auto-immune therapeutics among companion animals due to the high risk of HIV transmission from an animal source to human with weakened immunity and the transmission of allergy components from companion animals to family members.
 

The increasing pet ownership is also a key factor driving the growth of market.  According to the American Pet Products Association's (APPA) 2021-2022 National Pet Owners Survey, 70% of the U.S. households, or around 90.5 million families, own a pet and this number is expected to increase in future Increasing companion animal ownership leads to rise on animal healthcare, in turn to an increase in the medicalization rate for animals.

Based on the type of therapy, the veterinary auto-immune therapeutics market is segmented into corticosteroids, azathioprine, cyclosporine, mycophenolate, leflunomide, cyclophosphamide, levothyroxine, folic acid, hydroxychloroquine, and chloroquine. Corticosteroids held the highest revenue of USD 1.1 billion in 2022 and expected to grow in the forecast period. Corticosteroids are potent anti-inflammatory agents. In veterinary medicine, many autoimmune conditions involve an excessive immune response and inflammation, leading to tissue damage. Corticosteroids help mitigate inflammation by suppressing the immune system's response, reducing the severity of symptoms, and providing relief to affected animals.
 

Based on diseases, the veterinary auto-immune therapeutics market is divided into hypothyroidism, pemphigus disease, canine lupus, auto-immune haemolytic anaemia, bullous pemphigoid, discoid lupus erythematosus, immune-related arthritis, and other diseases. In 2022, the hypothyroidism segment accounted for the largest share of 30.7% in the market. Hypothyroidism is most common in dogs but also develops rarely in other animals like cats, horses, and other companion animals.
