Answer preview

This drug is an oral tablet commonly used to prevent and treat malaria and was considered in the clinical trials for COVID-19 Treatment. Hydroxychloroquine is used to inhibit the SARS-CoV-2 virus with the host cell by increasing endosomal pH (NIH, 2020, October 9).  The drug has no significant benefit since it does not reduce the viral load for the upper and lower respiratory tract. The World Health Organization (WHO) announced on June 17, 2020, that the Hydroxychloroquine clinical trials would be stopped based on the low efficacy and high safety threats. Evidence shows that the drug does not enhance the reduction of mortality for hospitalized patients compared to standard care.
