Liver injury in non-severe COVID-19 with various pandemic phases: a real-world study

The using of a variety of anti-COVID-19 medicines connected to the degree of liver impairment in the short term was intriguing. To evaluate the dynamic course of liver injury in patients with mild to moderate COVID-19 within 10 days of admission. This was a prospective cohort study of 300 patients who were newly proven mild to moderate COVID-19 between September 2021 and October 2022. There were 188 patients in hospitel/field hospital (n = 188) and cohort wards (n = 112). One hundred and fifteen patients (38.3%) suffered from liver injury (LI). The majority of Group LI participants (n = 104) received medication to treat the COVID-19 infection, including favipiravir (45%), remdesivir (17.4%), molnupiravir (11.3%), Andrographis paniculata (ADG) (8.7%), and favipiravir in combination with ivermectin (7.7%). When compared to no LI, molnupiravir medication was linked with the largest proportion of transaminase < 2 and 2–5 times the ULN [11.3% vs. 4.9%, p = 0.038; 15.2% vs. 4.9%, p = 0.013]. After 10 days, the majority of patients exhibited a transaminase decline. A less-than-critical level of liver damage was reported in mild to moderate COVID-19 that allows clinicians to administer a variety of standard medications during short periods of hospital stay.
