Private clinics to be allowed to prescribe Molnupiravir for COVID-19

The Public Health Ministry plans to allow private clinics to purchase and prescribe the antiviral medication molnupiravir for Covid-19 patients, as private hospitals already do.

Health permanent secretary Kiattiphum Wongrajit said on Monday as the ministry has set a target to declare Covid-19 an endemic disease, it has distributed molnupiravir to private hospitals to treat Covid-19 patients free of charge. Private hospitals could also purchase additional antiviral medication to treat patients.
