Summary

This trial tests new drugs to see if they can help people with long-term COVID-19 symptoms. It looks at how the drugs work, how well they work, and if they're safe.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals experiencing Long COVID symptoms. Participants should fit the broader criteria outlined in the master protocol (NCT05595369). Specific details on who can join are not provided here, but typically include those with a confirmed history of COVID-19 and ongoing health issues related to it.
What is being tested?
The study tests Paxlovid at two different dosing durations (15 days and 25 days) against a control group to see if it helps with Long COVID symptoms. It's double-blind, meaning neither doctors nor patients know who gets what treatment, ensuring unbiased results.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, Paxlovid may cause taste disturbances, diarrhea, high blood pressure and muscle aches. Side effects vary from person to person.
