FREQUENTLY ASKED Questions

How does Paxlovid, a COVID-19 Pill work?


The Pfizer COVID pill, Paxlovid is an antiviral drugs designed to disrupt the function of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and it blocks a step of the SARS-CoV-2 replication process. 

When the coronavirus attempts to create viral proteins from this mutated RNA, the result is that these proteins have too many mutations to function. The virus dies after accumulating enough mutations. In addition, these mutations accumulate randomly, making it more difficult for the COVID-19 virus to eventually develop resistance to Paxlovid.  Thanks to the state of Maryland and the test to treat program, Resolve MD now offers the Pfizer Covid Pill, Paxlovid at no cost.  A virtual visit ($129) prior to receiving the pill is necessary before dispensing it.

What are the COVID Pill side effects?

 

The most common side effects of Paxlovid is loss of taste, diarrhea, high blood pressure and myalgia (muscle aches). An important note regarding Pfizer’s pill however is that there are a significant number of drug interactions between it and some very commonly used medications, including cholesterol medications called statins, as well as many others. If you are under consideration for a prescription from Resolve MD, you will be asked several questions regarding the medications that you are currently taking. It is very important to answer these questions thoroughly.  If you are unsure of the name of all of your medications, we reccomend contacting your doctor or your pharmacy with the list of all your medications prior to scheduling a visit. 


How can I get Paxlovid?

You can complete a COVID-19 test at home or at Resolve MD or another testing site and if positive for Covid,  then make a telehealth appointment with one of RMD's Board Certified Family Physicians (visit fee is $219). We can assess whether the medication is right for you and have you pick it up (medication is free) directly from our office.

 For mild cases, recovery can take 2-4 weeks from the time that symptoms begin. For moderate cases, recovery can take up to 6 weeks or even longer. In vaccinated patients, recovery can be sooner. COVID medication could improve recovery time as well.
