It was turned over to the Department of Health
(DOH) on August 6 and will be allotted for 100 patients who are part of the
Avigan clinical trial.
"Japan hopes that this ongoing cooperation
with the Philippines would further contribute to the advancement of clinical
research to contain the Covid-19 pandemic," the Japanese embassy in Manila
said in a statement.
It was revealed by some researches that Avigan,
developed by a subsidiary of Japan-based Fujifilm Holdings Corp., is seen as an
effective drug in treating Covid-19.
It has drawn interest from many countries for
its potential to counter viral replication.
The Japanese
government reports that Avigan has showed big promise in treating COVID-19 positive
patients as some of them successfully recovered after taking it.
However, health
experts cautioned against the use of Avigan because the drug has one dangerous
potential side effect -- birth defects.
The arrival of the drug- Avigan is part of Japan's emergency grant aid to
countries severely affected by the pandemic.
Each recipient government acknowledged Avigan’s
proper usage and prescription in view of its known adverse side effects, the
embassy said.
