13, 2021 /--- According to a recent article published in the journal Cochrane Review, hydroxychloroquine does not reduce COVID-19 deaths and may not reduce the number of people needing ventilators.
, they noted that trials of new hydroxychloroquine or chloroquine treatments for COVID-19 should not be started.
from India, South Africa and the United Kingdom (LSTM, University of Liverpool, Royal Liverpool University Hospital) provided a systematic review of studies using chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine to treat or prevent COVID-19 diseases.
(Photo: www.pixabay.com) Public demand for COVID-19 therapy has fueled speculation that the drug may be effective, but this is based on unreliable research that does not meet the criteria for inclusion in this review.
a year ago, then-U.S. President Donald Trump declared chloroquine a "game changer" that led to global demand and chaos.
scientists quickly organized large-scale experiments that showed no valid evidence, and this review summarizes these tests.
authors of the review included 14 related studies: 12 studies of COVID-19 for the treatment of 8,569 adults;
and two studies of 3,346 adults who had been exposed to the virus but had no symptoms of infection used hydroxychloroquine to block COVID-19.
included studies from China, Brazil, Egypt, Iran, Spain, the United Kingdom and North America, and a global study in 30 countries, some of which was partially funded by pharmaceutical companies that manufacture hydroxychloroquine.
Senior author Dr Tom Fletcher said:
The review will certainly draw a line under the use of this drug to treat COVID-19, but some countries and medical institutions are still stuck in the process of early speculation and prescription."
that this review will help to put an end to these practices as soon as possible.
