Patient Experiences With Nirmatrelvir/Ritonavir for COVID-19 in a Collaborative Care Model: A Cross-Sectional Study on Self-Management, Information, and Medication Impact.
Article in Journal of patient experience, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, nirmatrelvir/ritonavir was approved as the first per os treatment to prevent severe disease progression. This study explores patients' self-management of nirmatrelvir/r and its impact on their long-term medications, and their experience of the information provided by pharmacists and physicians. Adults receiving nirmatrelvir/r from September 2022 to March 2023 were interviewed via a semistructured telephone survey. Sociodemographic, clinical data, and experience with nirmatrelvir/r and cotreatments were collected and analyzed descriptively. Of the 281 patients receiving nirmatrelvir/r, 100 (36%) participated in this study. Ninety (90%) adhered to nirmatrelvir/r, while 5 (5%) reported early discontinuation and 5 (5%) increased time between dosages. Information gaps regarding side effects, risks, benefits, and mechanisms of action were identified. Due to interactions with nirmatrelvir/r, 43% (n = 43/85) of cotreatments were temporarily interrupted, and 13% (n = 11/85) of doses were adjusted. Patient management of nirmatrelvir/r and cotreatments was successful, but satisfaction toward nirmatrelvir/r information could be improved. This study highlights the importance of ongoing efforts to ensure communication strategies, patient education, and interprofessional collaboration in providing treatments with drug-drug interactions.
