Abstract : At present, while some countries are dealing with the continuously increasing incidence, some of the others are currently facing the 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) resurgence, entering the second and third waves of the pandemic. Several determining factors could be attributed to such global phenomenon, including the emergence of novel severe acute respiratory syndrome-associated coronavirus type-2 (SARS-CoV-2) pathogenic variants (e.g. N501Y, E484K, B117 and N440K) and the nonexistence of effective pharmacological modalities for COVID-19. Despite the remarkable success of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines development, the treatment modalities for COVID-19 remains limited. Several repurposed drugs that were deemed to be useful were ineffective and even harmful [1,2]. Of those are the antimalarial drug chloroquine, antimicrobial azithromycin and protease inhibitors ritonavir/lopinavir, which were no longer recommended because of their potential cardiotoxicity [2,3].
