Driving Factors

In Japan, influenza remains a serious public health concern, with yearly seasonal outbreaks. Between 2.5 and 3 million instances are diagnosed annually in Japan, according to the Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare (MHLW). The need for antiviral medications is fueled by the high prevalence of flu infections, especially during the busiest flu seasons. Additionally, the need for efficient influenza treatments is increased by Japan's aging population. The illness's severe complications, such as pneumonia, which can lead to hospitalizations or even death, are more likely to affect the elderly. The United Nations estimates that 28% of Japanese citizens are 65 years of age or older, making them a particularly susceptible group to influenza. This generates a sizable market for antiviral drugs specifically designed for this age range.

Restraining Factors

The high price of several antiviral medications is one of the main obstacles to the market's growth in Japan. The expense of influenza treatment, especially antiviral drugs like oseltamivir and zanamivir, continues to be a major barrier for certain population segments, despite the fact that Japan's universal healthcare system guarantees broad access to medical treatments.
