Nirmatrelvir/ritonavir (Paxlovid®): French pharmacovigilance survey 2022.

Introduction: Nirmatrelvir/ritonavir (Paxlovid®) is currently one of the few therapeutic options for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) curative treatment in non-oxygen-requiring adult patients at-high risk of progressing to severe disease. This recently approved boosted antiviral therapy presents a significant risk of drug-drug interactions (DDI). As part of the enhanced surveillance program in France for COVID-19 drugs and vaccines, the French national pharmacovigilance database (BNPV [base nationale de pharmacovigilance]) was queried in order to better characterize the drug safety profile, with a special focus on DDI.
