NewswireToday - /newswire/ - London, United Kingdom, 03/17/2007 -

ReportBuyer.com, the online destination for business intelligence

for major industry sectors, has now added a new report on the

developing market for anti fungal treatments.

" Anti-Infectives: World Market, 2nd. Ed., Vol. I: Antifungals, "

forecasts that the market will grow to more than $7 billion within

five years.

Fungal infections are now the third most common hospital acquired

infection, with more than one million people suffering globally. The

escalating incidence of fungal conditions worldwide means the market

for prescription and over the counter anti-fungal medications could

reach in excess of $7 billion.

The oral and non oral anti-fungal market alone is expected to reach

$5.4 billion by 2011. However, product sales in both systemic and

topical market segments are facing increased competition from

generic medications. New product developments should also help to

increase the market.

This report highlights the progress of new types of anti fungal

medication and the promising potential of advances in infection

imaging. It includes a review of products currently used and in

development, in-depth profiles of leading competitors, key issues

and trends, and U.S. and world incidence of fungal infections with

associated sales forecasts.

" Anti-Infectives: World Market, 2nd. Ed., Vol. I: Antifungals, " is
