Product Information

• Name: Hydroxychloroquine
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Hydroxychloroquine is a 4-aminoquinolone that is used to prevent and treat malaria, caused by parasitic protozoan from the Plasmodium genus. Hydroxychloroquine is also used to treat non-infectious diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus thanks to its immunomodulatory properties. Recent studies revealed that hydroxychloroquine has beneficial effects on COVID-19 patients, as the current evidence shows that hydroxychloroquine inhibits SARS CoV-2 entry in host cells by interfering with endocytosis and affecting the glycoprofile on the spike glycoprotein.
