Know Your Treatment Options for COVID-19

Today you have several treatment options to prevent hospitalization and other serious complications of COVID-19. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved drug treatments for COVID-19 and has authorized others for emergency use. In addition, more therapies are being tested in clinical trials to evaluate whether they are safe and effective in treating COVID-19.

Of course no treatment is a substitute for vaccination against COVID-19. Find an updated COVID-19 vaccine near you at vaccines.gov.

But if you have COVID-19 symptoms and test positive, do not wait to talk to your health care professional about available treatment options. They will know the best option for you based on your symptoms, risks and health history. Medications to treat COVID-19 must be prescribed by a health care professional and started as soon as possible after diagnosis to be effective.
