Ulcerative colitis refers to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which affects the colon and rectum part of the human body. Ulcers and inflammation are formed in the innermost lining of the rectum and colon, causing the release of mucous and pus in these linings. Rectal bleeding, diarrhea, and abdominal cramps are the most common symptoms seen in people suffering from the disease.
The global ulcerative colitis market has been witnessing massive growth over recent years. The market's growth is primarily being driven by the growing prevalence of ulcerative colitis disease that affects millions of people globally.

However, the market growth is likely to be restricted by the stringent government regulations towards approval of biosimilars and patent expiry of drugs.
