NCT04714515

Brief Summary

The current study aimed to make a therapeutic comparison and effectiveness of Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and Montelukast (ML) in COVID-19 patients in addition to the standard of care. The safety and efficacy of HCQ and ML will be assessed as individual therapy and in combination with each other and with the standard of care. Cytokine storm (Interleukin levels) also will be monitored throughout the study to assess treatment progression.
