Do you mean you’re having a flare-up of RA or Long COVID?

Most providers are pretty reluctant to prescribe Paxlovid “off label,” because it’s only indicated for acute COVID within 5 days of showing symptoms, but I suppose if you could find someone willing to prescribe it, then in theory you could? I’ve only heard of a scant few people in the Long COVID support group on Connect that have mentioned being able to obtain Paxlovid again and for a longer course.

I got selected to participate in the NIH Long COVID/Paxlovid clinical trial and honestly one of the reasons I checked to see if I could qualify is because I felt great on Paxlovid and am curious if it would help my inflammatory arthritis. But I also have a Long COVID diagnosis and of course I might get the placebo…
