2-DG has been given emergency approval by the Drug Controller General of India for use on Covid-19 patients in India.

Laurus Labs, a leading research and development-driven and fully integrated pharmaceutical and biotech company, has already applied to the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation for emergency use authorisation (EUA) for 2-DG.
