Detailed Description

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV-2). Antiviral therapies are considered to be one of the COVID-19 treatments. Remdesivir and favipiravir are the antivirals recommended by Indonesia's 3rd COVID-19 Management Guidelines. They have a similar mechanism to inhibit virus replication, specifically by inhibiting RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) of the virus. Several studies reported that patients who received these antivirals had a lower duration of hospitalization. However, the effectiveness comparison of remdesivir and favipiravir remains unknown.

An observational analytic study using a retrospective cohort design. Eighty-eight medical records of COVID-19 patients from January to August 2021 are collected by consecutive sampling technique, and this research was carried out at Gotong Royong Hospital Surabaya.
