When will I be eligible for the Paxlovid COVID pill in Arlington Heights, IL?

The COVID pill, according to the FDA, is only for people who have already been infected with COVID-19. If you test positive for COVID, you must see a doctor or another registered healthcare practitioner to obtain a prescription for the drug.

What is the COVID pill treatment (Paxlovid & Molnupiravir)?

According to the FDA, COVID pill treatment is an oral antibody drug meant to reduce the risk of severe COVID symptoms. The pills can be used at home, just like any other prescription medication. Paxlovid is a five-day treatment that entails taking three pills twice a day for five days. The Molnupiravir treatment consists of four pills administered every 12 hours for five days.

How does the COVID pill treatment work?

The two medications work in distinct ways, according to FDA officials. Paxlovid stops the virus from making an enzyme that is necessary for reproduction. As the virus replicates, molnupiravir causes it to mutate and become ineffective.
