Safety Risks of Therapy Used to Treat COVID-19
Observational Study
Aug 18, 2020

Healthcare providers have an urgent need to understand the safety and efficacy of the various therapies being used to treat COVID-19. In the early days of the pandemic, the FDA had granted emergency authorization to use hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), and many providers were using it alone and/or in combination with azithromycin (AZM).

Both drugs, however, have the potential to cause life-threatening arrhythmias. There was, therefore, a critical need to know what risk the combination posed in short-term use to treat COVID-19 patients. To address this need, IQVIA experts conducted a global observational study utilizing real world data to provide immediate answers for treatment decisions.
