User Reviews for molnupiravir oral

This medication works,no doubt and this is the 4th time I have had covid and I don't like taking medication,

Had to call all around to find a pharmacy that had this expermintal Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) drug in stock. ER doctors have been instructed to refused to prescribe any of the non EUA antivirals that are available going against and dismissing the directions of PCP and request of patient. Information on this drug is almost nonexistent and since it is an EUA the prescribing person/facility cannot be sued or held liable for the side effects/ damages or death the drug may cause. In my opinion this abuse of EUA for profit by the prescribing person/facility should be treated ad proscuted as criminal malpratice and medical negilence as they choose to push only EUA refuse to offer other known safer (PCP & patient requested) options/alternative drugs. In my opinion the methods employed to the use/prescription of this drug leave you distrustful of its efficacy. Read More Read Less

I am fully COVID vaccinated. Tested positive. PCP prescribed INV-MOLNUPIRAVIR 200MG $ pills BID. Immediate cessation of all symptoms. I had one severe episode of diarrhea. Started Lactobacillus and no recurrence. Truly a wonder drug!

I have CFS or chronic fatigue syndrome, I am iron deficient and have to have iron infusions, I have asthma as well as other health issues. This was my 5th time with COVID. Twice in two months this time, I had what they are calling rebound COVID. This has been the worst case so far. This treatment was a life saver for sure. I wasn’t able to get outta bed the pain was almost impossible to deal with, and I have a metal plate and 8 screws in my back, so pain doesn't bother me but this got me. In two days of this treatment I felt almost human again. I am still tired but that’s part of living with CFS. I would recommend this to anyone, it was well worth the three different pharmacies I had to go to to get it. Read More Read Less

Instant and strong viral antigen response 2 diff mnfctr home covid tests, confirmed w/PCR. Severe chills, major head congestion, palatal sores, chest pain, cough, out of the blue diastolic hypertension. 2nd dose LLagevrio-sores disappeared, cough disappeared, nasal congestion and chills gone. 3rd dose BP started to be normal, and arrythmia modulated. By day 5, fatigue lifted w/ no other sx. After 2 days off of Rx experienced unpleasant rebound of HTN x 24 hrs, then settled back to precovid state. Now left w/ chronic annoying chest pain and mild pulmonary obstruction. Perhaps concurrent Lagevrio and Metformin to ameliorate continued vascular inflammation would be a useful combination.Underlying pernicious anemia and HTN.Read More Read Less

worked in 3 days i was really sick, i

It seemed to lessen the major affects of the COVID. The fever issues were addressed with alternating extra strength Tylenol & ibuprofen. Fever would never go down to normal until about 7 days after dx.

Although my GI system was not happy with this medication, it began reducing in my COVID symptoms almost immediately. Fever went away, coughing lessened, and sinus congestion started breaking up. Am on day 7 today and still feeling a bit puny, but other symptoms are, essentially, gone. I'm willing to call this a " miracle drug."

When I tested positive for COVID-19, I was shocked and scared! This medication saved my life within a matter of a week! It was a bit difficult to swallow all 4 capsules at once, but I'm very grateful that I pushed through it. Thank you to the makers of this amazing medication!

This drug works and almost instantly too i couldnt even move to go to bathroom without pain and shaking all over my body my resting hesrt rate was through the roof then My doctor prescribed this along with an antibiotic And man it changed the game 180 degrees fever went down and shaking stopped and 2nd day heart rate went down not to normal but it was alot better Btw my first corona i had in 2020 it took my a month and back then they used to give u hydroxy chloroquine but this is 1000% better

I am a 34 dialysis patient with End Stage Renal failure and this, I was told, this was the safest covid treatment option for me. My first dose I took before bed and woke up the next morning with no more fever or body aches. I took the second dose as prescribed (4 200mg tabs every 12 hours) throughout the day my cough decreased, running nose decreased, both significantly. I was 100% by days end, continue meds as prescribed. I did experience diarrhea and a lot of dizziness. The prescription had warnings of dizziness, nausea, and diarrhea so I was prepared and didn’t experience nausea. A half a banana was all I needed to normalize my bowl movements. For me this drug was a huge win Read More Read Less

Was diagnosed with COVID on Saturday. They gave this to me at urgent care. Had a covid headache most of Saturday and then it went away on Sunday. By Monday. I was nearly 100% with no fever. However, really bad Gastrointestinal side effects : diarrhea. Can't keep anything down following eating. Otherwise this is a miracle drug. My boyfriend died from COVID so I wasn't taking any chances. He got the vaccine and then he got COVID and died 9 days later. I am not vaccinated.

Had fever for 7 days straight. First 2 days at 40 degrees, and couldn't shake the fever for a week. I was pescribed this and my covid headache went away within a day and by day 3 I felt back to normal.

My mother broke her hip, which required surgery and several days in hospital. I was warned that there were several Covid patients on her floor. She was in the Hospital for close to a week. I tried to be careful, but still started sneezing about four days into her stay, had congestion by the fifth day, full Covid symptoms by sixth! Doc proscribed Molnupiravir, within 24 hours most symptoms gone. I’m breathing better, no headache, no temp! Still some muscle discomfort, but sooo much better. I was unaware of the concerns over this medication, I have to trust that my doc has done his research (he usually does, so he must have thought it was best option for me). Good news is mother didn’t get Covid and is out of hospital. Read More Read Less

I am A 51 yr old female with iron deficiency anemia and high liver counts. Had a headache Friday, and by Sat & Sunday felt like a bad head cold coming on but was feeling so lousy assumed it could be Covid. Took 2 at home Covid test on Sunday night (both positive) Called my Dr and she prescribed molnupiravir Started it Monday morning, I have had 3 doses thus far, and symptoms are minimal. It stopped the virus in its tracks or so it seems anyway. Will update later but so far I’m so very thankful for this drug, no side effects, and the first time around with Covid I was bedridden and couldn’t move for almost 2 weeks. So I highly recommend this medication! Read More Read Less

I was diagnosed with Covid on the 2nd on the 4th my doctor prescribed Molnupiravir , day one and two I had a awful headache and had no appetite. Day 3 of taking the medicine my body aches went away and so did my headache and brain fog . DAY 4 I'm a little out of breath I sweat alot randomly but I feel better than I did . I am still testing positive for covid but I don't really have any symptoms other than stuffy nose and cough .

I was prescribed molnupiravir by my GP after testing positive to Covid on Tuesday. I was in a bad way with combined flu and Corona with all the symptoms. I fainted twice by the Wednesday. Then I started these antivirals. Within 12 hours the brain fog had lifted and my breathing was improving. By the second day I was almost back to normal. I have type II diabetes and high blood pressure. I have no doubt without the molnupiravir I would have been taking up space in a hospital bed or worse.

I started taking this medication on the second day of experiencing symptoms of the Omicron variant ba5. On that day, I was so weak that I could barely walk or talk and I was constantly out of breath. I also had terrible brain fog to the point that I could barely think or articulate sentences. After the first evening dose of this drug and then sleeping a few hours afterwards, I felt considerably better. The extreme exhaustion and brain fog had noticeably lessened within a few hours. I then began feeling progressively better within a few hours of taking each subsequent dose over the next four days. By the time it ran out on day 5 I just had a mild infrequent cough and barely stuffed up nose. I had other covid positive relatives in the house with me that didn't get their doctor to prescribe anything and it took them several days longer to get over it. The bottom line is that it worked great for me and I think it saved me from being hospitalized or even dying. I also experienced no side effects whatsoever. It's now day 7 and I still feel fine. From my experience I can't recommend this medication more.Read More Read Less
