The U.S. Food and Drug Administration today announced the following actions taken in its ongoing response effort to the COVID-19 pandemic:

• Today, the FDA revised its Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) to reflect changes in the distribution and allocation of the antiviral drug Veklury (remdesivir). More information about the revised EUA can be found here.
• The FDA has issued a warning letter to Kerri Rivera and her company KetoKerri, LLC, for the sale of unapproved and misbranded drugs related to the Coronavirus. Products “KK Black Seed Oil,” “KK Breakthrough Vitamin D with Chondroitin & Oleic”, “Stonebreaker,” “KK EDTA with Selenium and Minerals,” “Zeolite,” “Ultra Liquid Zeolite,” and “DR. FITT FIRE FIGHTERS” make fraudulent claims to mitigate, prevent, treat, or cure COVID-19 in people. The products are unapproved new drugs sold in violation of section 505(a) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act), 21 U.S.C. § 355(a), and are also misbranded under section 502 of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. § 352.
