The Antivirals market is a subset of the Infectious Diseases Drugs market, which includes drugs used to treat viral infections. Antivirals are used to treat a wide range of viral infections, including influenza, HIV, herpes, hepatitis, and other respiratory infections.

They can also be used to reduce the severity of symptoms and shorten the duration of the illness. Antivirals are typically administered orally or intravenously, depending on the type of virus and the severity of the infection. In some cases, antivirals may be used in combination with other drugs to increase their effectiveness. Some of the major companies in the Antivirals market include Gilead Sciences, Merck & Co., Pfizer, GlaxoSmithKline, and Bristol-Myers Squibb.
