Patient should have at least one pre-existing high-risk feature (e.g., age > 60 years, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, chronic lung disease, chronic kidney disease, liver disease, cerebrovascular disease, obesity (Body mass index (BMI) > 30.0 kg/m2), cancer) for developing severe Covid-19 illness. 6. Ability to swallow and retain oral medication. 7.

Patient who has experienced onset of any of Covid-19 symptoms > 5 days at the time of randomization. 3. Moderate to Severe COVID-19 infection. -Moderate infection is defined as patients with pneumonia with no signs of severe disease. Clinical features suggestive of presence of dyspnea and/or hypoxia, fever, cough, including SpO2 = 93% (range 90-93%) on room air OR respiratory rate = 24 per minute. -Severe infection is defined as patients with either severe pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome, sepsis or septic shock. Clinical features suggestive of clinical signs of pneumonia plus one of the following parameters such as respiratory rate > 30 breaths/min, severe respiratory distress and SpO2 4. Subjects who are severely immunocompromised (e.g., subjects with HIV infection, subjects with solid organ transplantation or bone marrow transplantation, subjects receiving chemotherapy/ radiotherapy, subjects with primary immunodeficiency). 5. Autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA). 6. Patients with any bleeding disorder e.g., hemophilia and von Willebrand disease. 7. Current use of other DHODH inhibitors including teriflunomide or leflunomide. 8. Patients who are on or immediately require Covid-19 directed treatment such as antivirals (e.g., remdesivir, favipiravir), immunomodulatory treatment (e.g., tocilizumab, itolizumab, baricitinib or JAK inhibitors), convalescent plasma, oral/ intravenous steroids, or monoclonal antibodies at the time of screening. 9. Patients participating in another clinical study or use of any investigational product within 4 weeks or 5 half-lives of the drug, whichever is longer, before the date of dosing. 10. Patient with history of heart failure, Class 2 or greater using the New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class. 11.

Pregnant or lactating females. 13. Any physical examination findings and/or history of any illness that, in the opinion of the study investigator, might confound the results of the study or pose an additional risk to the patient. 14. Inability or unwillingness to comply with study and/or follow-up procedures outlined in the protocol. 15.
