Abstract
Summary One of the potential therapeutic agents for treating COVID-19 is favipiravir (FPV). This retrospective study compared the treatment of COVID-19 with (FVP group) or without (control group) favipiravir. Demographic characteristics and initial clinical indicators in the two groups were comparable. The level of oxygen saturation, respiratory rate, and prevalence of chest pain in the FVP group returned to normal significantly earlier (on the seventh day) compared to the control group (p<0.05). Improvement of patients’ condition in the FVP group occurred significantly earlier than in the control group (p <0.001). In conclusion, FVP treatment’s efficacy was higher than the control management strategy and established an individualized set of therapeutic agents. However, more detailed studies are needed to evaluate the efficacy of COVID-19 treatment with favipiravir fully.
