CHUQUIURE-VALENZUELA, Eduardo et al. Adverse effects, pharmacological interactions, and cardiovascular drugs in COVID-19 treatment. Arch. Cardiol. Méx. [online]. 2021, vol.91, suppl.2, pp.79-85.  Epub Feb 07, 2022. ISSN 1665-1731.  https://doi.org/10.24875/acm.20000234.

In severe coronavirus disease (COVID)-19 patients, an extraordinary systemic inflammatory response is seen. It could impact in multiple organ disorders, specially a severe myocardial injury, an acute myocarditis results in focal or global myocardial inflammation and necrosis. Those events can be present in healthy subjects or cardiovascular (CV) patients. It is clinically associated with ventricular dysfunction exacerbation or worsening and tachyarrhythmias. It is also related to a poor outcome for CV patients with ischemic heart disease, hypertensión, and heart failure. COVID-19 patients require multiple and complex treatment that alleviates symptoms, the vast variety of agents interacts with diseases and CV drugs. Our purpose is to correlate in guidance synopsis: Adverse effects, pharmacological interactions, and CV drugs in COVID-19 treatment

Keywords : Cardiovascular drugs; Pharmacology interactions; Adverse effects; COVID-19.
