Pfizer has started a study of its COVID-19 pill in children who have COVID-19 and are designated as being at high risk for experiencing severe symptoms.
The phase 2/phase 3 study has about 140 participants between the ages of 6 and 17.
One cohort will receive Pfizer’s pill, known as Paxlovid or nirmatrelvir, twice a day for five days. The other group will follow the same schedule, but receive a dosage equal to half as much.
