Xevudy contains the active substance sotrovimab. Sotrovimab is a monoclonal antibody, a type of protein modified to recognize a specific target on the SARS-CoV-2 virus, the virus that causes COVID-19.

Xevudy is used to treat COVID-19 in adults and adolescents (from 12 years of age and weighing at least 40 kg).
