Molnuvid (Molnupiravir) 200mg Capsules is an antiviral medication primarily used for the treatment of COVID-19 in specific patient groups. Molnupiravir works by inhibiting the replication of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, thereby reducing the severity and duration of the illness. Here are its main uses:

• For Mild to Moderate COVID-19: Molnupiravir is used to treat mild to moderate cases of COVID-19 in adults who are at high risk of progressing to severe disease (e.g., elderly individuals or those with underlying health conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, etc.).
• It is typically prescribed for people who are within 5 days of symptom onset and are not hospitalized or requiring oxygen therapy.

• Reduces the risk of hospitalization and death: Molnupiravir has been shown to reduce the risk of severe outcomes (e.g., hospitalization, death) in patients with mild or moderate COVID-19 who are at high risk of developing severe disease.

• It is generally recommended for individuals with underlying conditions (e.g., obesity, chronic respiratory conditions, immunocompromised states) who are at higher risk of experiencing severe disease or complications from COVID-19.

Iverheal 12mg (Ivermectin) Tablets are used primarily for the treatment of parasitic infections. Ivermectin is an antiparasitic medication that works by paralyzing and killing a wide range of parasites, including worms and ectoparasites. Below are the main uses of Iverheal 12mg:
