Molnupiravir and nirmatrelvir/ritonavir are antivirals used to prevent progression severe SARS-CoV-2 infections decrease hospitalisation mortality rates. Nirmatrelvir/ritonavir was authorised in Europe December 2021, whereas molnupiravir is not yet licensed as of February 2022. may be an alternative because it associated with fewer drug-drug interactions contraindications. A caveat for the mode action induces viral mutations. Mortality rate reduction less pronounced than that patients...
