Treating COVID-19 with Oral Medications Available by Prescription
If you test positive and have underlying health conditions, you are more likely to get very sick from COVID-19. Oral treatments are available that can reduce your chances of being hospitalized or dying from the disease. Medications to treat COVID-19 must be prescribed by a healthcare provider and started as soon as possible after diagnosis to be effective. Don’t delay: Treatment must be started within days of when you first develop symptoms to be effective. Paxlovid and Molnupiravir remain effective treatments against currently circulating variants and emerging variants. To receive the oral treatments, you must have a current laboratory confirmed COVID-19 infection and a referral from a prescribing physician. For more information, call 311 and select option 1 on weekdays from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. and on weekends and holidays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. or call 671-998-4527 or 671-998-4547.

• Avoid sharing personal items – dishes, cups/glasses, silverware, towels, bedding or electronics (e.g., cellphone).

• Wear a face mask.

If at-home test result is negative, but you have symptoms or have been exposed to someone with COVID-19:

• You should get a confirmatory test as soon as possible to confirm your results

• You should isolate until you receive your confirmed laboratory test result.

• If you are symptomatic, advise your household members and other close contacts to stay home until you receive your confirmed laboratory test result.

• If your confirmed laboratory test result is positive, DPHSS’ containment unit or your clinic will notify you of your positive laboratory result.

• Close contacts should also get tested for COVID-19.

If at-home test result is negative and you have NO symptoms and have NOT been exposed to COVID-19: It is less likely that you have COVID-19. You may resume your daily activities while continuing to follow all public health advice.
