Trialing Outpatient Treatments for Moderate COVID Cases | COVID-19 Media Briefing
Показать описание
A new study led by the Duke Clinical Research Institute is looking at whether three existing medications would treat mild-to-moderate COVID-19 effectively. (More information on the study is available here.)
The three repurposed medications, already approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for other uses, are:
- Ivermectin, used to treat parasitic infections;
- Fluticasone, an inhaled steroid commonly prescribed for asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; and
- Fluvoxamine, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), often prescribed for depression.
On Tuesday, institute executive director Adrian Hernandez discussed the study with reporters in a virtual media briefing, where he touched on the need for COVID-19 therapies and making it easy for people across the country to take part in the study.
