Impact of COVID-19 on the Empty Capsule Market
COVID-19 is a respiratory disease that has infected millions worldwide since its outbreak in November 2019. Common initial symptoms of COVID-19 include fever, headache, muscle pain and diarrhea. More severe symptoms include respiratory failure and life-threatening pneumonia.
During the initial days of the pandemic, the use of dietary supplements to boost immunity increased substantially. At that time, the data was insufficient to prove the effectiveness of dietary supplements in boosting immunity against COVID-19. Dietary supplements, including Vitamin C, vitamin D, and vitamin B12, were used to enhance immune function. This increased the consumption of dietary supplements, subsequently driving the demand for empty capsules. Additionally, people infected with COVID-19 were prescribed antibacterial to treat underlying symptoms, which increased the demand for empty capsules for manufacturing antibiotics and antibacterial.
The COVID-19 pandemic also boosted the R&D to develop therapies for COVID-19. For instance, in December 2021, Hetero (India) launched the (Movfor) investigational oral antiviral capsule containing Molnupiravir to treat COVID-19 in high-risk adult patients.
