Within a couple of days, Tchaikapharma is about to produce the first 5,000 MoriVir (hydroxychloroquin) packs for the front-line hospitals in the battle against COVID-19, and in May, another 20,000 GraVir (chloroquine) packs for further hospital treatment. “From May onwards, we expect a regular production, but it all depends on access to substances, which is currently extremely difficult worldwide for well-known reasons”, Prof. Toni Vekov said in an interview with the Trud daily. The two medicinal products are in process of registration, and once they have been granted marketing authorization, they could be distributed to the pharmacy network and would thereby be available for patients on prescription only.
