Abstract

Within a multistate clinical cohort, SARS-CoV-2 antiviral prescribing patterns were evaluated from April 2022-June 2023 among nonhospitalized patients with SARS-CoV-2 with risk factors for severe COVID-19. Among 3247 adults, only 31.9% were prescribed an antiviral agent (87.6% nirmatrelvir/ ritonavir, 11.9% molnupiravir, 0.5% remdesivir), highlighting the need to identify and address treatment barriers.
