If you don't have any symptoms,you don't need to take medicines.If possible,undergo a covid test,specially if you develop any symptoms such as fever, cough,loss of taste etc. Even if you become covid+ve,you don't need to take any medicines if your Oxygen saturation is above 94% and respiratory rate is below 24.
Next Steps
Medicines like Favipravir,Remdesivir and steroids should not be taken if Oxygen saturation is above 94%. Steroids are only needed if symptoms worsen or there are changes found in chest HRCT or chest x-ray. If steroids are required, don't stop them suddenly..taper the dose and then stop.. and don't take them for more than 10 days..
