Indications

Mechanism of Action

Molnupiravir is a nucleoside analogue antiviral agent. After oral administration, it is converted into its active form in the body. The active compound incorporates into the viral RNA during replication. This leads to accumulation of errors in the viral genetic material, ultimately preventing the virus from multiplying effectively. By reducing viral replication, Mavira helps limit disease progression and supports recovery.
