“Remdesivir is the first COVID-19 medicine recommended for use in the EU,” the agency said in a statement. However, it is noted that this recommendation has not yet been approved by the European Commission.
At least two studies in the United States have shown that remdesivir can reduce the length of hospitalization in patients with COVID-19 coronavirus infection.
The study findings, published in May in the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine, show that remdesivir injections, originally designed to treat Ebola fever, accelerated patients’ recovery compared to the placebo group alone.
