BACKGROUND: Prior case series suggest that a 5-day course of oral Paxlovid (nirmatrelvir/ritonavir) benefits some people with Long COVID, within and/or outside of the context of an acute reinfection. To the best of our knowledge, there have been no prior case series of people with Long COVID who have attempted longer courses of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir. METHODS: We documented a case series of 13 individuals with Long COVID who initiated extended courses (>5 days; range: 7.5-30 days) of oral nirmatrelvir/ritonavir outside (n=11) of and within (n=2) the context of an acute SARS-CoV-2 infection. Participants reported on symptoms and health experiences before, during, and after their use of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir. RESULTS: Among those who took a long course of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir outside of the context of an acute infection, some experienced a meaningful reduction in symptoms, although not all benefits persisted; others experienced no effect on symptoms. One participant reported intense stomach pain that precluded her from continuing her course. Among the two participants who took a long course of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir within the context of an acute reinfection, both eventually returned to their pre-re-infection baseline. DISCUSSION: Long courses of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir may have meaningful benefits for some people with Long COVID but not others. We encourage researchers to study who, how, and why nirmatrelvir/ritonavir benefits some and what course length is most effective, with the goal of informing clinical recommendations for using nirmatrelvir/ritonavir and/or other antivirals as a potential treatment for Long COVID.
