As of February 2021, apart from dexamethasone, no other drug or drug combination has proven to be unequivocally effective in reducing mortality due to COVID-19 |
After analysing 19 different research papers that have described the outcomes of usage of ivermectin and doxycycline, either alone or together, we have observed that the evidence is not strong to either approve or disapprove the usage of these two drugs for COVID-19 treatment |
Given that both these drugs are inexpensive, safe and have a potential role in the COVID-19 management, further studies are required to explore this in detail. |
