The pharma company in Teva has made a big claim, in which they have said that a drug has been invented to fight corona and the course of the drug will be 10 to 15 days. The drug will be kept in all markets on Monday and is priced at Rs 130 which even a poor man can buy. However this drug is named Fabipiravar.
Ahmedabad. Amidst the fight against corona virus, Glenmark Pharmaceuticals will now be used to treat corona patients. Glenmark Pharmaceuticals has also received approval from the government’s drug regulator. Patients with mild symptoms of corona can now be medicated with Glenmark Pharmaceuticals. Glenmark Pharma said the company has introduced the antiviral drug Favipiravir under the brand name Fabiflu for the treatment of patients suffering from corona virus. Glenmark was approved on June 19 by the Central Drugs Standards Control Organization for the production and marketing of favipiravir or fabiflu.
A tablet costs Rs 103
Patients with mild to moderate symptoms may benefit from the use of Fabiflu, the company said. The cost of this drug is Rs. 103 per tablet. While a strip of 34 tablets costs Rs. 3500 has been determined. The drug will be available in hospitals and medical stores on prescription basis. The recommended dose is 1800 mg twice daily for 1 day, followed by 800 mg twice daily for 14 days.
Clinical trials yielded good results
During clinical trials, Fabiflu has shown an encouraging response in mild to moderate COVID-19 patients, said Glenn Seldenha, chairman and managing director of Glenmark Pharma. Moreover, it is given orally, so it is a more convenient treatment option than other intravenous drugs. Glenmark will work closely with the government and the medical community to make Fabiflu quickly accessible to patients across the country.
Corona increased pressure on the healthcare system
“This approval comes at a time when corona cases are on the rise in India and this has put a lot of pressure on our healthcare system,” said Glenn Seldenha. We hope that effective treatment like Fabiflu will help reduce this pressure and patients will get timely treatment.
