According to FutureWise analysis the market for anthrax treatment in 2023 was US$ 0.6 billion, and is expected to reach US$ 1.08 billion by 2031 at a CAGR of 7.60%.
Anthrax primarily affects farm animals but can also infect humans through contact with contaminated animals or their products, as well as through heroin injection. Individuals working in laboratories or those at risk of bioterrorism may also be susceptible to infection. It’s important to note that anthrax is not contagious, making prompt medical attention essential upon exposure.
The infection is caused by the bacterium Bacillus anthracis, which can form spores that remain viable in soil for many years. When these spores enter the body, they release bacteria that produce toxins, leading to illness
There are several modes of transmission, including inhalation, ingestion, or skin contact. Each route can lead to distinct symptoms:
- **Skin exposure** may result in itchy blisters or painless sores accompanied by swelling.
- **Ingesting contaminated items** can cause symptoms such as fever, swollen neck or glands, nausea, vomiting (which may be bloody), diarrhea, headache, and reddening of the eyes and face.
- **Inhalation** poses the highest risk, typically presenting with flu-like symptoms, breathlessness, coughing up blood, and severe complications including meningitis.
- **Injection anthrax**, often related to heroin use, can cause itchy blisters, fever, ulcers, pus pockets, and even organ failure.
Diagnosis is made through blood tests to detect antibodies or toxins, and samples from the skin, spinal fluid, stool, and mucus may be analyzed. In cases of inhalation, imaging and chest X-rays can provide further insights.
Treatment depends on the type of exposure and generally includes antibiotics and antitoxins, such as obiltoxaximab or raxibacumab, especially for inhalation cases. Severe infections may require hospitalization.
Vaccination against anthrax is recommended for high-risk groups, including laboratory and military personnel, as well as those who work closely with animals. While routine vaccination after exposure is not standard practice, it may be considered in emergency situations, particularly in the context of potential bioterrorism threats.
