Remdesivir (RDV) has shown some promising results in coronavirus disease (COVID\u201019) albeit with low certainty.

No dose adjustments were done. The outcomes were measured as acute kidney injury (AKI) recovery; liver function tests abnormalities; other side effects; graft loss and death.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The median (inter\u2010quartile range) age of presentation was 44 (31\u201051)\u00a0years. The duration from onset of symptoms to RDV initiation was 6 (5\u20107) days. Thirty\u2010two (56%) cases received RDV on the day of admission. Forty\u2010six (81%) cases were on oxygen support upon initiation of RDV. Thirty\u2010eight (66.6%) cases had acute kidney injury on admission. The median baseline, admission, and 28\u2010day follow\u2010up serum creatinine of the cohort were 1.59 (1.1\u20102.1), 2.13 (1.3\u20103.1), and 1.58 (1.05\u20102.1)\u00a0mg\/dl, respectively. A total of 8(14%) cases died in the study with 1 (1.7%) graft loss. All those cases that died were on oxygen therapy at the time of initiation of RDV.
