COVID-19 Impact: Halt of Operations to Impede Growth

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the difluprednate market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the difluprednate market growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted all areas of business and production. The lockdowns which were imposed halted production activities of difluprednate. The major manufacturers and users of difluprednate, North America and the Asia Pacific, suffered enormously due to COVID-19, whether in terms of the number of people infected or the regression of the economy. The supply chain was completely disrupted and exports and imports were harder to manage. This led to reduced usage of difluprednate in other parts of the world as well. People started receiving only the essential treatments and postponed the others. This was because of the poor financial position of people during the pandemic. Many people lost their employment, a lot of businesses failed and families lost their breadwinners. So, any expensive treatments were put on the backburner during the pandemic. So, the COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted the difluprednate market growth.
