Keywords: Chloroquine; COVID-19; G6PD EN Chloroquine COVID-19 G6PD 1162 1164 3 06/15/20 20200701 NES 200701 To the Editor, I In vitro i data suggest that chloroquine (the most used antimalarial drug) inhibits SARS CoV-2 replication as many previous papers have shown as this molecule displays an I in vitro i activity against various viruses (e.g. chikungunya virus), although without any reliable benefit in animal models [[1]]. Administering hydroxychloroquine or other chloroquine salts to elderly patients with I G6PD i deficiency represents a higher risk to generate adverse effects due to these medications.
