Abstract
Background: The ACTT-1 trial showed that the median time to recovery was 10 days in the
remdesivir group compared to 15 days in the placebo group. However, remdesivir failed to
provide a survival benefit. This study puts in an effort to find the difference in biochemical
and other parameters in patients treated with remdesivir vs. without the remdesivir in mildmoderate
covid 19 patients.
Aims and Objectives: To study the biochemical and other parameters in patients treated with
remdesivir vs. without the remdesivir in mild-moderate covid 19 patients.
Materials and Methods: This study was done in the Department of Pharmacology,
Kanachur Institute of Medical Sciences, Mangalore. This study was done from May 2020 to
June 2021. The study was done in 30 patients who were treated with remdesivir and thirty
without.
Results: There is significant difference between the remdesivir used group when compared to
the unused group.
Conclusion: It may be useful in mild to moderate cases.
