N/A

The continuous growth of the whole segment in recent years has mostly been due to the new products commercialised in the companion animal ectoparasiticides segment.

However, sales in other parts of the market have been affected by growing generic penetration.

The development of vaccines against parasites is still a subject of high interest in both the academic and commercial sectors. However outside the coccidiosis sector these have generated fairly modest revenues to date.

The major players in the sector are working on the development of novel antiparasitics, and some new products are expected to reach the market in the next 5 years.
