Description

Alternative Veterinary Medicine Market Summary

The global alternative veterinary medicine market size was estimated at USD 2.94 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 9.23 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 14.39% from 2025 to 2033. The market is driven by several key factors, including the growing pet population and increasing humanization of pets, which fuel demand for holistic and natural treatments.

Rising awareness among pet owners about the potential side effects of conventional drugs is prompting interest in alternative therapies such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, chiropractic care, and homeopathy. Moreover, according to an article published by AVMA, in May 2025, an estimated 4,000 to 5,000 veterinarians in the U.S. have completed acupuncture certification through recognized institutions such as Chi University, IVAS, CuraCore, CRI, EBVA, and CIVT. The expanding number of qualified professionals reflects the increasing acceptability and incorporation within conventional veterinary treatment. The market for alternative veterinary medicine is growing as more veterinarians use these alternative treatment modalities, increasing their credibility and pet owners' confidence and desire for holistic care.

Similarly, according to an article published by The Hindu in October 2024, the newly released Standard Veterinary Treatment Guidelines (SVTG) by the Union Ministry of Animal Husbandry are expected to drive market growth significantly. These guidelines encourage a move toward Ayurvedic and herbal veterinary medications as safer and more environmentally friendly alternatives by attempting to limit and restrict the use of antibiotics in treating livestock and poultry. By increasing farmers' and veterinarians' confidence in conventional formulations, this policy initiative promotes broader use in the commercial and rural animal health sectors. In addition, Government support for Ayurveda in veterinary care is expected to boost investment, research, and development of herbal and plant-based animal health products. This will help the market grow while encouraging safer, more natural, and environmentally friendly ways to care for animals.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
