For COVID-19 "I was diagnosed with COVID, and my doctor prescribed molnupiravir. After one day, it was tearing up my stomach. Black tar was coming out. Why would a doctor prescribe something experimental when we have no idea if the long-term damage it could cause for an illness that poses less than a 1% chance of hospitalization? So disappointed. I stopped taking it and recovered in only three days. I have asthma. I was fine. If I could, I’d give a negative number."

For COVID-19 "It helped a lot, but oh my god, gas pain and stomach pain. 14 days after I finished the drug, I am still having these side effects. I am sure it has deterred my stomach chemistry. Hope it stops, can’t take the pain or smell. Sleepiness during the day and insomnia at night."

For COVID-19 "On day three, taking 200 mg, I feel much better. Most of my COVID symptoms are gone, but the medicine is making me nauseous and having very bad stomach pains. Otherwise, I thought it worked very well."
