The antiviral drug ensitrelvir eases both smell and taste loss, and is one of the few COVID-19 drugs available to people not at high risk of grave illness.

New clinical-trial data suggest that an antiviral pill called ensitrelvir shortens the duration of two unpleasant symptoms of COVID-19: loss of smell and taste. The medication is among the first to alleviate these effects and, unlike other COVID-19 treatments, is not reserved only for people at high risk of severe illness.

    A wad of shortening in my mouth, that is exactly what Reese’s taste like to me. Tell your wife I’ve got my fingers crossed for her.

      Thanks - like I said, hers was only gone for a short time, like maybe 4 days. Long enough that she was contemplating like without it, but luckily it slowly ramped back up over a couple days.

      So we’ll cross ours for you!
