Resumen

Durante la pandemia de COVID-19, la comunidad científica buscó con vehemencia medicamentos que pudieran ayudar a tratar la enfermedad en cuestión. Medicamentos como cloroquina, azitromicina e ivermectina se utilizaron como automedicación, antes de confirmarse su eficacia contra el virus y la enfermedad. Después de poco más de dos años desde el inicio de la pandemia mundial de COVID, la forma en que cuidamos nuestra salud todavía suscita hipótesis entre la población sobre las diferentes formas correctas de afrontar la enfermedad, afirmando que diferentes enfoques serían efectivos o no. El objetivo reunió evidencia sobre la farmacocinética, el mecanismo de acción propuesto en COVID-19, los efectos adversos, la eficacia y seguridad de cloroquina/hidroxicloroquina, azitromicina e ivermectina para la profilaxis y el tratamiento de COVID-19. La metodología utilizada fue una revisión integradora, que siguió las recomendaciones de la guía PRISMA adaptada. La búsqueda bibliográfica se realizó en las bases de datos PubMed, LILACS y MEDLINE. Se realizó un análisis crítico para determinar el rigor metodológico de los estudios, a partir de la valoración del nivel de evidencia científica. Los resultados mostraron que el uso de hidroxicloroquina, cloroquina, azitromicina o ivermectina, en formas leves o graves de COVID-19, tanto en tratamiento como en profilaxis, no demostró ningún beneficio en la reducción de la mortalidad, las hospitalizaciones u otros resultados desfavorables, sin limitar la transmisión. virus ni impedir la instalación de la infección. Concluyendo que el uso de estos medicamentos antes mencionados como medidas profilácticas y terapéuticas para el COVID-19 está contraindicado, debido a la falta de evidencia favorable consistente y los numerosos reportes de resultados adversos en dichos tratamientos.
