Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Adults from 18 to 60 years old who signed informed consent;
- Laboratory confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection by real-time RT-PCR.
- Chest computed tomography (CT) imaging-confirmed lung damage, including multiple small plaques and stromal changes in the lungs, which are obvious in the outer lung, or multiple ground-glass shadows and infiltration shadows in both lungs, although these changes might not be present in mild patients.
- Patients with history of fever (axillary temperature more than 37°С) or respiratory symptoms.
You may not qualify if:
- Patients who are unsuitable or who cannot participate safely in the study, as judged by the principal investigator (PI).
- Patients with serious liver disease (increase of liver transaminases enzymes).
- Patients with severe renal impairment (denoted by increase serum urea \& serum creatinine) or continuous renal replacement therapy, hemodialysis, or peritoneal dialysis.
- Patients with severe anemia.
- Women with a positive pregnancy test, ongoing pregnancy, or who are breastfeeding.
- Patients with a history of allergy to medications or its metabolic components.
- Patients who have not signed informed consent.
