Identifying side effects of commonly used drugs in the treatment of Covid 19

Abstract To increase the success in Covid 19 treatment, many drug suggestions are presented, and some clinical studies are shared in the literature. There have been some attempts to use some of these drugs in combination. However, using more than one drug together may cause serious side effects on p...
