Sotrovimab injection is used to treat COVID-19 infection in certain non-hospitalized adults and children 12 years of age and older who weigh at least 88 pounds (40 kg) and who have mild to moderate COVID-19 symptoms. It is used in people who have certain medical conditions that make them at higher risk for developing severe COVID-19 symptoms, including the need to be hospitalized from COVID-19 infection or death. Sotrovimab is in a class called monoclonal antibodies. It works by blocking the action of a certain natural substance in the body in order to stop the spread of the virus.
