Background: The emergence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARSCoV- 2) variants with novel spike protein mutations has been shown to be influencing the epidemiological and clinical aspects COVID-19 pandemic. Objective: Due studies showing various dietary benefits zinc as a viral replication inhibitor well an immunity enhancer, organometallic complexes incorporating ions can ideal antiviral candidates due their structural variation diverse stereochemistry. Methods: In silico were conducted for virtual screening SARSCoV- host proteins explore effect on entry activity. Molegro Virtual Docker along AutoDock was used identification potential SARS-CoV-2 from Cambridge Structural Database (CSD). Molecular dynamics (MD), density functional theory (DFT), chemical absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, toxicity properties (ADMET) support findings screening. Results: correlation RNA-dependent RNA polymerase receptorbinding domain bound ACE2 docking results, compound (bis(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole)- bis(2-furoato)-zinc(ii)) (CSD code ECOZAA) occurs metal complex receptor inhibitor. ECOZAA observed (in binding affinity = - 179.29kcal/mol) behave better than clinically approved drug Remdesivir -62.69kcal/mol) against polymerase. large HOMO- LUMO gap is indication low reactivity great kinetic stability compound. Conclusion: Thus, this study highlights use inhibitors.

In the treatment of COVID-19, antiviral medication Favipiravir has proven to be quite successful. Its metabolism is mediated by enzymes aldehyde oxidase (AO) and xanthine (XO). This research investigated potential drug-drug interaction betweenfavipiravir amlodipine in hypertensive rabbits. Twenty local adult male rabbits (aged between 10 12 months weighing 2 2.5 kg) were induced with hypertension 20 mg/kg BW desoxycorticosterone acetate subcutaneously for three weeks then divided randomly into two groups ten. The first group received a single oral dose 40 favipiravir, while second 5 orally 14 consecutive days inhibit AO before receiving favipiravir. Blood samples collected from marginal ear vein at 15, 30, 45 min, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, 48, 36, 72 h. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used determine concentration favipiravir plasma. results showed that co-administration prolonged time taken (Tmax) reach maximum plasma (Cmax) decreased its elimination half-life, increasing area under curve (AUC). Amlodipine also reducing clearance per unit (Cl/f). Additionally, potentiated effect on absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion conclusion, concomitant use other drugs affect enzyme activity may alter pharmacokinetic profile drug. Therefore, adjusting administered patients recommended.

Abstract: Background: Patients with diabetes are particularly susceptible to COVID-19 infection, which can result in severe respiratory illness. Methods: This study conducted a comparative as-sessment of the impact antiviral therapy using molnupiravir and favipiravir pa-tients underlying diabetes. A cohort one hundred individuals infected SARS-CoV-2, diagnosed diabetes, consecutively admitted, was included present study. These patients were treated antivirals according local guidelines: Group F (51 cases) – 10 days M (49 5 days. Re-sults: In F, average hospitalization higher than (11.29±2.27 vs. 7.14±3.16, p

The emergence of SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19 pandemic, has prompted extensive research into antiviral therapeutic interventions aimed at improving treatment outcomes and clinical parameters. It provides a concise overview conducted in this field, focusing on impact significance various drugs. By analyzing key studies trials, it aims to elucidate efficacy safety profiles drugs such as remdesivir, favipiravir, molnupiravir, Paxlovid managing COVID-19. scientific practical lies its contribution understanding role combating SARS-CoV-2 infection. This knowledge is crucial optimizing strategies patient during ongoing pandemic. Methodologically, involves reviewing synthesizing data from reputable published peer-reviewed journals. Key parameters assessed include viral clearance, mortality rates, hospitalization duration, adverse effects associated with drug administration. main results analysis highlight varying impacts different outcomes. For instance, remdesivir shows promise reducing recovery time mortality, while favipiravir demonstrates enhanced clearance but may cause transient liver enzyme elevations. In conclusion, underscores value mitigating findings contribute evolving offer insights care protocols. these informing healthcare professionals policymakers about effective options cases, ultimately abstract encapsulates essential aspects emphasizing scientific, practical, methodological advancing our response global
