Global penicillin and streptomycin market is expected to grow with a CAGR of 0.3% during the forecast period. Penicillin and streptomycin are defined as a class of antibiotics that are used to kill bacterial infection and restrict bacterial growth. World Health Organization (WHO) included it in its list of essential medicines which are the most effective and safe medicines that are required in the healthcare system. Penicillin has been significantly used to treat infection, meningitis and so on. Streptomycin has been significantly used for the treatment of tuberculosis. Rising use of antibiotics in cell culture is offering an opportunity for the growth of the market. Antibiotics are frequently added to cell culture media as it suppresses contamination. The most common antibiotics for the cultivation of cells include a combination of penicillin and streptomycin. Many cell culture laboratories routinely add antibiotics and antimycotics to all cell culture media during the establishment of a primary culture, or while propagating specific valuable stocks or to eliminate any contamination.

Global Penicillin and Streptomycin Market: By Product
Penicillin is anticipated to hold the major share in 2018 due to significant demand for penicillin for the treatment of bacterial infections, such as ear infections, skin infections, and urinary tract infection. It works to kill and prevent the growth of bacteria. In addition, the shortage of penicillin was reported due to the rising prevalence of infectious diseases which created significant demand for penicillin in the global market. According to the WHO, the shortage of Benzathine Penicillin G (BPG) occurred which is the only recommended treatment to prevent mother-to-child transmission of syphilis. Among sexually transmitted diseases (STD), syphilis is unique that can be curable with a penicillin single dose. According to WHO, 930,000 pregnant women annually have probable active syphilis (transmissible during pregnancy) which results in nearly 350,000 adverse birth outcomes, such as organ deformities and prematurity annually. Of 114 countries, 95 countries (41%) reported a shortage of BPG and 56 (59%) reported no BPG shortage during the period, 2014-2016. The drug is sold at a very low cost. As per Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) estimation, BPG is sold on average at a cost of $0.11 for a 1.2 million international unit (IU) dose and $0.20 for 2.4 million IU does in low-and-middle-income countries. However, some countries set an additional cap on the price at which the drug can be sold that also keep the price low. This, in turn, shows a rising demand for penicillin for the treatment and prevention of infectious disease. However, the shortage of these drugs may also a major restraining factor for the market growth which would result in shifting towards other antibiotic alternatives, such as erythromycin, amoxicillin, and ceftriaxone.
