Department of Biomedical Engineering, Inonu University, Malatya, Turkey. Electronic address:
In response to the urgent need for effective treatments during the rapid spread and high mortality rate of COVID-19, existing drugs were repurposed for potential antiviral effects, including favipiravir, originally designed as an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase inhibitor for influenza. Despite limited antiviral effectiveness against COVID-19, favipiravir has been reported to cause several adverse drug events (ADEs) in the body. Recent studies have shown that favipiravir can damage various tissues in rats.
