WHO?
- People 12 years old and up with mild or moderate COVID-19
- You also have to weigh at least 88 lbs = 40 kgs
WHEN?
Talk to a doctor about taking paxlovid as soon as you test positive for COVID-19. It is effective if you initiate paxlovid within 5 days from when you start feeling sick.
WHAT?
So, here is what paxlovid is:
It’s a 5-day course of pills that you take
For 5 days straight, you’ll take 3 pills in the morning and 3 pills in the afternoon.
3 + 3 = 6 pills a day
6 pills for 5 days = 30 pills total.
The three pills are a combination of two medications with long names: ritonavir and nirmatrelvir. Nirmatrelvir binds to a protein on COVID proteins that prevent the virus from replicating, while then ritonavir helps by preventing the breakdown of nirmatrelvir so that it can last longer in the body
WHERE?
you get this medication is from a doctor. It is a prescription mediation because there are specific health circumstances that make taking paxlovir less safe. The medication is also prescribed in a non-hospital setting for mild and moderate COVID-19 cases.
WHY?
It is 88-89% (88% according to the FDA, 89% according to Pfizer) effective at reducing the risk of severe illness and death. This additional layer of treatment against COVID is an excellent addition to the vaccine in terms of protection. Research also shows that paxlovir is effective against omicron, which is exciting.
