ANALYSIS OF CHANGES IN LIVER ENZYMES UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF ANTIVIRAL DRUGS IN PATIENTS WITH COVID-19
Keywords:
Covid-19, favipiravir, remsidivir, ALT, AST.Abstract
This article told about 110 patients who were treated in June 2021 at the Republican Special Hospital No. 2 of Zangiot, where the diagnosis of coronavirus was confirmed. In general, Covid- 19 of mild and moderate severity was detected in patients. The patients underwent a standard course of treatment on the recommendation of WHO. The standard treatment plan includes medications like favipiravir and remsidivir. A biochemical blood test was performed every three days, and changes in the analysis were dynamically monitored. It was found that patients mainly had liver disorders, especially ALT and AST were 2 and 3 times higher than normal. At the end of the course of treatment with antiviral drugs, a slow decrease in the level of enzymes was observed.
