The COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown in several countries throughout the world has had an impact on enterprises in all sectors, including the private healthcare sector. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant influence on the healthcare industry's whole supply chain, owing to stringent lockdown in certain places. The COVID-19 epidemic has had three main effects on the economy of various places throughout the world: 1) direct effects on production and demand; 2) disruptions in distribution routes; and 3) financial impact on firms and financial markets.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a set of illnesses characterised by chronic digestive tract inflammation. Ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease are examples of inflammatory bowel illnesses. The disorder ulcerative colitis causes inflammation and sores (ulcers) along the lining of the large intestine (colon) and rectum. Crohn's disease is an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) characterised by inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract's lining, which frequently involves the deeper layers of the digestive tract. Diarrhea, exhaustion, abdominal pain and cramping, reduced appetite, and unintentional weight loss are all signs and symptoms of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.

Anti-inflammatory medications are the first line of defence in the fight against IBD. These drugs help to reduce inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract. Inflammation in the small intestine and colon is reduced by corticosteroids like prednisone and 5-ASA medicines (amino salicylates) like mesalamine. Infliximab (remicade) and adalimumab (humira) are biologics that work by neutralising inflammatory proteins in the body. Anti-diarrheal drugs and pain relievers, for example, may help ease your signs and symptoms while also managing inflammation.
