Molnupiravir (EIDD-2801) is an orally bioavailable prodrug of the ribonucleoside analog EIDD-1931. Molnupiravir has broad spectrum antiviral activity against influenza virus and multiple coronaviruses, such as SARS-CoV-2, MERS-CoV, SARS-CoV. Molnupiravir has the potential for the research of COVID-19, and seasonal and pandemic influenza[1][2].<br>Molnupiravir (50-500 mg/kg; p.o.; every 12 hours for 3 days) is robustly antiviral and able to prevent SARS-CoV replication and disease[1].
Molnupiravir (7 mg/kg; p.o.; twice daily for 3.5 days) significantly reduces shed virus load and duration of fever[2].
