डॉक्टर की पर्ची ज़रूरी है
Product introduction
2Dege Oral Powder is the first Indian origin anti-Covid medication to receive emergency use approval for the acute treatment of moderate to severe COVID-19. It helps stop the growth of viruses in the body, thereby reducing the need for external oxygen and fastening recovery in hospitalized patients.
2Dege Oral Powder, also referred to as '2-DG', has been developed by Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), in collaboration with Hyderabad based, Dr Reddy's Laboratories (DRL). Initial experiments with this medicine were conducted during the first wave of the pandemic, which demonstrated effectiveness against SARS-CoV-2 virus. Based on this, phase II and phase III clinical trials were conducted. The data from these showed that a significantly higher number of COVID-19 patients who were treated with 2-DG improved symptomatically and became free from supplemental oxygen dependence as compared to those being given standard care. Additionally, the medicine was found to be safe.
2Dege Oral Powder comes in powder form (sachet) that is to be taken orally by dissolving it in water. It may be taken twice daily for 5-7 days or as prescribed by the doctor based on the severity of the infection. As per the trials conducted, no side effects have been reported so far.

It is important to keep in mind that this medicine is to be given only in emergency cases. You should not take this medicine without the prescription of the doctor.

How 2Dege Powder works
2Dege Oral Powder is a medicine that resembles glucose structurally and is used to kill the virus causing Covid-19. The virus utilizes glucose to produce energy, and this energy is used by it to make copies of itself. Once given, 2Dege Oral Powder is readily absorbed by the ‘virus-infected cells’ as the virus takes it up just like glucose. On reaching the infected cells, the medicine stops energy production, inhibits further multiplication of the virus, and kills it. This helps in clearing the infection, even if it has spread to the lungs, and reduces the requirement of supplemental oxygen in moderate to severely infected Covid-19 patients.
