“If that would have lessened my symptoms, that would have been great...”: a qualitative study about the acceptability of tecovirimat as treatment for mpox by Sara Paparini, Rosalie Hayes, Benjamin Weil, Will Nutland, Ismael Maatouk, Teodora Wi, Chloe M. Orkin, Rosamund Lewis

“…Conclusions This exploratory study suggest that offering tecovirimat (or comparable emergency-licensed treatments) to people with mpox is acceptable, although uptake will depend on knowledge of mpox treatment options, trust in medicine and medical professionals and provision of relevant information and choice. To increase acceptability of such treatments, clinicians should ensure patients are aware of mpox symptom management options, including pain relief; acknowledge and address patient concerns upfront and within the context of non-stigmatising care; and communicate offers in a consistent and supportive manner in line with locally approved eligibility criteria and protocols at the time.…”

Greer, Laura J. Kunces, Loukia Lili, Stephen M. Phipps, Caleb M. Schmidt, Julian C. Schmidt, Michael A. Schmidt

“…Furthermore, the group taking kavalactones first never experienced a significant decrease in Move motivation state (lowest mean score 21.0, highest 28.6, all p ≥ 0.05), while the group receiving kavalactones in the last 2 weeks of the study had Move scores that were statistically lower than baseline (lowest mean score 8.6, highest 25.9, all p ≤ 0.05) at all time points but the last (p = 0.063) after 2 weeks of kavalactones exposure.Conclusions We report a novel finding that kavalactones may support performance by maintaining or rescuing the desire to expend energy in the context of significant physical and mental strain in well-conditioned individuals, even in a context of already normal cortisol, sleep, and mood.…”
