Comparison of remdesivir and favipiravir - the anti-Covid-19 agents mimicking purine RNA constituents.
TLDR
Favipiravir has shown various benefits when administered in mild and moderate cases of COVID-19, while remdesivir was more beneficial in more severe cases of the disease, and the evidence in favor of favipirs is compromised by the small number and low-quality of trials conducted.
