If you have COVID-19, you may be able to get medicine to help you recover. COVID-19 medications work best if they are taken within a few days of when you first got sick. It’s important to seek treatment quickly to lower your risk of serious illness.
If you have mild to moderate symptoms and your symptoms began within the past few days, call your doctor or health care provider as soon as you can to ask about getting therapeutic treatment. If you do not have a provider or health insurance, you can find a place to get medicine using CDPHE’s COVID-19 treatment map below.
This map is updated every Wednesday. Providers on this map may or may not currently have medication available. Contact a location directly for more information. Talking with a health care provider can help you learn more about what is right for you.
This map only shows providers who get their supply of medication from the state or federal government. Some providers offering COVID-19 treatment may not be shown here. Contact your health care provider directly to learn more about whether they offer COVID-19 medications.

There are a few ways to get medication in Colorado.
Test to Treat or telehealth can help you find medication fast, even if you don’t have a provider or insurance. These options may have out-of-pocket fees for patients without insurance. Coloradans without insurance are encouraged to apply for Health First Colorado – Colorado’s Medicaid Program.
Telehealth means connecting with a health care provider over the phone or through a video call.
On October 25, 2022 the Biden administration announced a new initiative in partnership with Walgreens, Uber Health, and Doordash to offer same-day delivery of Paxlovid free of cost to eligible patients. Contact your local Walgreens for more information.

There are different types of medicine that can treat or help prevent COVID-19.
Antiviral medications can be either pills you take by mouth or IV infusions. They target specific parts of the virus to stop it from copying itself.
Monoclonal antibodies are given as infusions, either through an IV or through injections, like a vaccine. They help your immune system recognize and respond to the virus.
As of November 30, 2022, bebtelovimab, a monoclonal antibody, is no longer authorized by the FDA for emergency use in the United States, as it is not expected to be effective against the BQ.1 and BQ. 1.1 subvariants of COVID-19, which CDC now estimates to be the most common variants circulating in the region and nationally.
Other factors influence eligibility, and this is an abbreviated table. Find more complete guidance for prescribers.
Evusheld is expected to have reduced effectiveness against many variants of COVID-19 circulating in Colorado and the United States currently. People who receive Evusheld should continue to take precautions to avoid infection. If you experience symptoms of COVID-19, get tested and quickly seek medical attention if you test positive.
Evusheld is a monoclonal antibody that can help prevent COVID-19. It is for people who are moderately to severely immunocompromised and may not be fully protected after receiving a COVID-19 vaccine. It is also for people who cannot receive a COVID-19 vaccine due to an allergy.
People who receive Evusheld should get a dose every six months for ongoing protection.
Evusheld is not for people who are already infected with COVID-19 or have recently been exposed to COVID-19. Evusheld is not a is not a substitute for COVID-19 vaccination in people for whom COVID-19 vaccination is recommended. Everyone should stay up to date on their recommended COVID-19 vaccinations.
Whether you see a health care provider in person or through telehealth, your provider will ask questions to learn more about which medicine may be right for you.
