remdesivir injection - #17428
I recently came across information about the remdesivir injection, and I have a few questions regarding its use. I know that this injection is used for treating COVID-19, but I’m not entirely sure how it works and what benefits it can offer. I’ve heard that remdesivir is an antiviral drug that helps stop the virus from multiplying, but I’m wondering if it is only effective for COVID-19, or can it also be used for other viral infections? My doctor mentioned that remdesivir is primarily used for patients with severe COVID-19 symptoms who require oxygen support. If someone has mild symptoms, is remdesivir still used, or is it only effective for more serious cases? How soon should remdesivir be administered for it to have an effect, and when can patients start seeing results? Does taking remdesivir help patients recover completely, or are there any potential side effects? I have also heard that remdesivir may cause some side effects like liver issues, kidney problems, or allergic reactions. If a patient is affected by these side effects, they should inform their doctor immediately. Is it safe to take remdesivir with other medications, or are there drug interactions that could worsen side effects? Some members of my family have been infected with COVID-19, and I need to understand whether remdesivir is suitable for all patients, or if it’s only recommended under specific conditions. If I or anyone in my family is administered this injection, what precautions should we take? Has anyone here used the remdesivir injection? Did you notice any improvements, and did you experience any side effects?
