Completion of the full 5-day treatment course and continued isolation in accordance with public health recommendations are important to maximize viral clearance and minimize transmission of SARS-CoV-2.

LAGEVRIO is not authorized for use for longer than 5 consecutive days because the safety and efficacy have not been established.1

What should patients do if they miss a dose?1

If the patient misses a dose of LAGEVRIO within 10 hours of the time it is usually taken, the patient should take it as soon as possible and resume the normal dosing schedule. If the patient misses a dose by more than 10 hours, the patient should not take the missed dose and instead take the next dose at the regularly scheduled time. The patient should not double the dose to make up for a missed dose.

Should a patient require hospitalization after starting treatment with LAGEVRIO, the patient may complete the full 5 day treatment course per the healthcare provider’s discretion.

Are dosage adjustments recommended in specific populations?1

No dosage adjustment is recommended based on renal or hepatic impairment or in geriatric patients.

When should LAGEVRIO be administered?1

LAGEVRIO should be administered as soon as possible after a diagnosis of COVID-19 has been made, and within 5 days of symptom onset. See the “Emergency Use Authorization” (1) and “Clinical Studies” (14) sections in the Fact Sheet for Healthcare Providers to learn more.
