Vamsi Kaliki is a healthcare institution located at 1200 Children's Avenue in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, United States. This facility specializes in providing medical care and treatment for various health conditions, including COVID-19. Recently, two oral antiviral medications have been authorized for emergency use by the FDA to help treat COVID-19. These medications may be prescribed by doctors within the first 5 days of symptoms for patients with mild or moderate COVID-19, especially those who are at a higher risk of becoming seriously ill.

For patients who live with certain health conditions or take medications that suppress the immune system and have not responded well to COVID-19 vaccines or boosters, other potential medications such as Remdesivir may be considered. This injectable antiviral is given at an infusion clinic over a 3-day period.

The Oklahoma Children's Hospital Pharmacy at Vamsi Kaliki can dispense these antivirals to eligible patients, with prescriptions being sent electronically or faxed to the pharmacy. Patients who may qualify for these medications are encouraged to contact their OU Health physician for further information. For more information or to inquire about eligibility, individuals can call (405) 271-2156 or fax their prescriptions to (405) 271-2158.
