COVID-19 Treatment Options
If you are high risk of severe illness due to COVID-19 (as defined below), call your provider to see if you are eligible!
Key points to know:
-Monoclonal antibody treatments (mAB) and oral antiviral medications are available in Pacific County
-Medical provider order is required
-Treatments are most effective if administered within the first few days of disease (the earlier the better)
Contact a healthcare provider right away to determine if you are eligible for treatment, even if your symptoms are mild right now.
Don’t delay: Treatment must be started within days of when you first develop symptoms to be effective.
People who are more likely to get very sick include older adults (ages 50 years or more, with risk increasing with older age), people who are unvaccinated, and people with certain medical conditions, such as a weakened immune system. Being vaccinated makes you much less likely to get very sick. Still, some vaccinated people, especially those ages 65 years or older or who have other risk factors for severe disease, may benefit from treatment if they get COVID-19. A healthcare provider will help decide which treatment, if any, is right for you.
For COVID Treatment Options, contact your Primary Care Provider or Contact your local Urgent Care Clinic or Emergency Room.
