Acute use (1–3 days) yields a potency about 1.5× stronger than that of morphine and chronic use (7 days+) yields a potency about 2.5 to 5× that of morphine. Similarly, the effect of tramadol increases after consecutive dosing due to the accumulation of its active metabolite and an increase of the oral bioavailability in chronic use.

The expected course of treatment is six vials over five days for a total cost of US$2,340. [111] Being a repurposed drug , the minimum production cost for remdesivir is estimated at US$0.93 per day of treatment.
Day 5: RMP at 1/2 dose; Day 6: RMP at full dose; Day 7: EMB at 1/3 or 1/4 dose; Day 8: EMB at 1/2 dose; Day 9: EMB at full dose; No more than one test dose per day should be given, and all other drugs should be stopped while test dosing is being done. So on day 4, for example, the patient only receives RMP and no other drugs are given.
