About Lizuvira-200 Capsule 40's

Lizuvira-200 Capsule 40's belongs to a class of drugs called antiviral agents indicated for the mild to the moderate treatment of Covid-19. Coronavirus disease/Covid-19, also known as SARS-CoV-2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus 2), is an infectious disease caused by the coronavirus. Its symptoms include fever and cough and, in some cases, progressing to pneumonia and respiratory failure. 

Lizuvira-200 Capsule 40's contains Molnupiravir, a protease inhibitor. It works by interfering with a protein known as protease, which is necessary for the virus-infected cells to generate new viruses. As a result, the resulting virus particles have faulty genetic material and can no longer reproduce. Thereby, Lizuvira-200 Capsule 40's lowers virus load in the body and helps treat the infection.
