Retrospective 538 patients in Saudi Arabia (April 2020 - March 2021) Study compares with various, results vs. placebo may differ Longer ICU admission (p=0.001) and hospitalization (p=0.001) c19early.org Al Mutair et al., J.

Retrospective 269 favipiravir ICU patients in Saudi Arabia and 269 matched controls receiving different treatments, showing no significant difference.
Potential risks of favipiravir include the creation of dangerous variants, and mutagenicity, carcinogenicity, teratogenicity, and embryotoxicity1-5.
This study is excluded in the after exclusion results of meta analysis: very late stage, ICU patients.
risk of death, 7.0% lower, RR 0.93, p = 0.49, treatment 119 of 269 (44.2%), control 128 of 269 (47.6%), NNT 30.
risk of ARDS, 8.6% higher, RR 1.09, p = 0.63, treatment 76 of 269 (28.3%), control 70 of 269 (26.0%), severe ARDS.
ICU time, 33.7% higher, relative time 1.34, p = 0.001, treatment 269, control 269.
hospitalization time, 36.6% higher, relative time 1.37, p = 0.001, treatment 269, control 269.
Effect extraction follows pre-specified rules prioritizing more serious outcomes. Submit updates
Al Mutair et al., 15 Feb 2022, retrospective, Saudi Arabia, peer-reviewed, 14 authors, study period April 2020 - March 2021, this trial compares with another treatment - results may be better when compared to placebo.
