    FACT: Studies show hydroxychloroquine does not have clinical benefits in treating COVID-19 Hydroxychloroquine or chloroquine, a treatment for malaria, lupus erythematosus, and rheumatoid arthritis, has been under study as a possible treatment for COVID-19. Current data shows that this drug does not reduce deaths among hospitalized COVID-19 patients, nor help people with moderate disease.* The use of hydoxychloroquine and chloroquine is accepted as generally safe for patients with malaria and autoimmune diseases, but its use were not indicated and without medical supervision can cause serious side effects and should be avoided. * More decisive research is needed to assess its value in patients with mild disease or as pre-or post-exposure prophylaxis in patients exposed to COVID-19.     Download and share Is dexamethasone treatment for all COVID-19 patients?
