Animal Types Outlook

The cattle segment held the dominant market share of 39.69% in 2024. The market segment is attributed to the increased consumption of dairy products and beef. As demand for animal-based products increases, livestock production also increases, owing to an increased need for antibiotics to treat and prevent animal diseases. In addition, the growth of the beef industry contributed to the increased use of animal antibiotics, particularly in regions with higher production capacity.

The others segment such as sheep and goats is expected to grow fastest during the forecast period. The segment comprises horses, cats, dogs, and small mammals. The growing number of pet owners, particularly in emerging countries, is expected to enhance the demand for the market. The need for healthcare such as antibiotic treatments increase with more households welcoming furry companions into their homes.

Drug Class Types Outlook

The tetracyclines segment dominated the veterinary antibiotics market in 2024 with a share of 29.04%. They are a class of commonly used animal antibiotics. They are less used across companion animals such as horses, cats, and dogs and are first-line antibiotic drugs given to food-producing animals. Tetracycline animal antibiotic drugs with brand names such as Tetracyn, Medicycline, Sumycin, and Achromycin are used to treat inflammatory bacterial infections and skin diseases in dogs.

The others segment involves antibiotic drug classes such as nitrofuran derivatives, imidazole derivatives, other quinolones, cephalosporins, and amphenicols. Amphenicols are a collective compound that is utilized for veterinary usage, such as chloramphenicol, flofenicol, and thiamphenicol. Chloramphenicol is highly effective. Cephalosporins have four types such as types- 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th generation antibiotics and they are widely used in animal medicine.

Dosage Form Types Outlook

The oral solutions segment dominated the market share of 50.0% in 2024. Oral solutions or liquids are the most accessible dosage forms of animal antibiotics to use and develop. Various animal antibiotics used in food-producing animals are oral concentrated liquids in drinking water directly.

Intramammary infusion products are available for lactating cows and nonlactating and are used to treat mastitis in cattle.

Research and Development: North America to Sustain as a Leader

The veterinary antibiotics market in North America accounted for the largest revenue share of 32.37% in 2024 of the global market and is expected to grow at a significant CAGR over the forecast period.
