Current pharmacological treatments for COVID-19: What's next?
COVID-19 currently has multiple treatment options for infected patients from existing medications that are being repurposed for COVID-19. This generally consists of antiviral medications or anti inflammatory drugs. It is essential to explore the properties of and actions of the drug in the body of COVID-19 patients. The use of these drugs will be affected by their disease state, thus impacting the efficacy and/or safety of these medications. As a result drug therapies may have to be monitored for adverse reactions especially considering patients will likely be on multiple medications at once, posing a risk for drug-drug interactions. A pharmacological analysis is necessary to determine the best and safest option for managing COVID-19 with medication.
