DCGI on Friday granted emergency use approval for Zydus Cadila’s Pegylated Interferon alpha-2b, ‘Virafin’, for treating moderate COVID-19 infection in adults.
According to the pharmaceutical firm, a single dose of the anti-viral Virafin administered subcutaneously early on shows significant clinical and virological improvement in moderate COVID-19 adult patients.
“91.5 per cent of patients treated with PegIFN were RT-PCR negative by day 7,” the pharma major mentioned on its Twitter account.
The firm also says that the treatment significantly reduces the hours of supplemental oxygen required for COVID-19 patients.
