Brinton Pharmaceuticals has ramped up the production of Covid-19 drug Faviton (Favipiravir 400). The medicine is used as an oral antiviral therapy for the treatment of mild to moderate Covid-19 disease in adults. It stops the virus from multiplying and therefore, decreases the viral load in the body.
The pharma company has also increased the production of additional drugs Scabover & Iverbond and Doxybond LB & Briodox that are also used in the treatment of Covid infection.
The Pune-based pharma company said that Faviton is helpful in mild to moderate symptoms. If taken at the right time under medical supervision, the drug can prevent a patient from admission to a hospital.
