Objective: To study the effectiveness of a course of intravenous administration of cytoflavin in combination with a standard rehabilitation program for post-COVID fatigue syndrome caused by mitochondrial dysfunction.

Material And Methods: The dynamic examination of 45 patients with post-COVID syndrome at the second stage of rehabilitation was carried out. The patients were subdivided into 2 groups comparable in gender and age. The volume of lung damage in patients of both groups was also comparable at range of 25-80%. Twenty-four patients of the control group were treated with the standard post-COVID rehabilitation protocol: pulse magnetic therapy, inhalation therapy, aeroion therapy, infrared laser therapy, course aerobic training, psychotherapy, and standard drug therapy. Twenty-one patients of the main group additionally received intravenous administration of cytoflavin daily for 10 days. The dynamics of the scores on the Rehabilitation Routing Scale, HDRS, the Asthenic Status Scale, and the 6-minute walk test was analyzed.

Results And Conclusion: The additional intravenous administration of cytoflavin at the complex rehabilitation of post-COVID syndrome can significantly improve the therapeutic results: it significantly improves the overall functional state, reduces depression and fatigue level and increases tolerance to physical exertion.
