Hey, not long ago healthcare professionals were saying COVID antiviral drugs should only be used in patients with severe symptoms in the ICU. For example, when Paxlovid received FDA’s emergency approval in Dec of 2021, the drug was not to be used in the initial treatment of hospitalized patients.
Now they are saying new scientific evidence supports the use of some antivirals for new patients who are just starting to show COVID symptoms.
It can be quite confusing for us commoners, so I think it’s best that we seek a second, or even a third opinion from the docs. At the very least, we need to know which anti-viral is our best option for our particular COVID condition.
