Molnupiravir is an orally bioavailable prodrug of the synthetic ribonucleoside derivative N4-hydroxycytidine (NHC). In viral replication, viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase misincorporates NHC triphosphate instead of cytidine or uridine, inducing widespread viral error catastrophe and rendering the virus unable to replicate. Indicated for the treatment of mild-to-moderate COVID-19 in adult patients at high risk for progression to severe disease, hospitalization, or death.
