    The generic name of Merck's oral new crown drug is monoravir capsules, the trade name is Lizhuorui ®, and there are no other Chinese names
    .

    .
     
    3.
    Sinopharm Distribution Center Co.
    , Ltd.
    is the only legally authorized importer of Merck in China and is responsible for distribution to downstream distributors

    to patients' medication and medical safety.
    For the infringement of some pharmaceutical companies, Merck will take necessary legal measures
    .
     
    Merck China said that Molnupiravir capsules (trade name: Leadury ®/LAGEVRIO)® is an anti-new coronavirus oral drug jointly developed by Merck and Ridgeback Biotechnology, which was approved by China's National Medical Products Administration on December 29

    of drugs.
