US approves the use of Zinc Hydroxychloroquine “Anti Malarial” drug to be use against COVID-19.
According to studies, this anti-malarial drug added by zinc sulfate shows effective treatment against the virus.
Medical doctors have done research wherein 900 patients in participants the other half receives zinc sulfate with hydroxychloroquine and the other half injected with azithromycin and hydroxychloroquine, it latter found out those patients receives a triple-drug combination has a higher chance to of recovery.
According to infectious disease senior investigator Joseph Rahimian, the next step will be screen testing and more prospective study to innovate more to prove it’s effective against the virus.
Hydroxy chloroquine is a drug to treat SARS COV, in nature it acts as antiviral agent that denies the virus replication and prohibiting them to enter the human cells to cause more damage to other cells.
On the other hand ZINC has a natural antiviral that kills deadly viruses like common colds.
Doctor Rahimian noted that these two drugs can be used with different functions in the body where hydroxychloroquine is responsible for transporting Zinc inside the cells and magnifies it’s (Zinc)antiviral properties when inside the cell Zinc will be the one to attack the deadly pathogen.
Lately, Remdesivir also has proven effective against COVID-19, and scientists are now studying if Remdesivir, hydroxychloroquine, and Zinc can be used together to totally eradicate this harmful coronavirus.
