Heyaa Mate☺
Hydroxi chloroquine, in multiple countries like China, Thailand, USA, UK, Germany, Korea, this drug is still under trial. The result is yet to come.
Now, how this drug works in viral infections covid-19:-
Experiment studies suggested that chloroquine is anti malanial drug. Hydroxychloroquine doesn't prevent the binding to ACE2, but act as ionosphere for the zinc to enter the cell. That inhibits the RNA replication of virus. A doctor in New York city has treated 700 patients with this zinc Azithromycin with only 4 hospitalizations and no death.
The disease and viruses against which we can use hydroxychloroquine is mainly Malaria..
Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine are two medications that have been used for many decades to treat malaria and autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus.
- There is not enough medical data at this time to prove that hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine work for COVID-19 — while some small studies suggest the medications may be helpful, other studies saw no benefit.
- There have been no studies showing that these medications work for prevention, and the FDA has issued a warning for serious heart-related side effects if hydroxychloroquine or chloroquine are taken outside of a hospital setting for COVID-19.
- There’s now a shortage of hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine, which means that people who normally take these medications to manage their health are having a harder time getting the treatment they need.

What is hydroxychloroquine, and what is chloroquine?
Hydroxychloroquine is a medication first approved to treat malaria, an infection caused by a parasite. It is similar in structure to chloroquine, which was first approved by the FDA in 1949.
Hydroxychloroquine, approved in 1955, is typically preferred over chloroquine because it has fewer side effects. Side effects for both medications, which are more common at higher doses and with long-term use, include:
- Irreversible visual changes
- Long QT or QT prolongation (abnormal heart rhythm)
- Muscle weakness or nerve pain
- Hypoglycemia (low blood glucose)
- Worsening of psoriasis
