What do I do if I test positive for COVID-19?

Seeking early diagnosis and consulting with a healthcare provider can guide you through the available treatment options. Our urgent care services are here to support you.

Please see the CDC website for more information.  

Paxlovid prescription consists of taking 2 pink tablets or 150 mg nirmatrelvir and one white-ish tablet of 100mg ritonavir in the morning and again in the evening by mouth with water and or food for five days.

Side effects of Paxlovid include: Allergic reaction, Liver disease, and others.  Conflicts with other medications do exist and it is important to tell your medical provider all the medications you are currently taking.
