Drug Interactions for Patients with Respiratory Diseases Receiving COVID-19 Emerged Treatments
Pandemic of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is still pressing the healthcare systems worldwide. Thus far, the lack of available COVID-19-targeted treatments has led scientists to look through drug repositioning practices and exploitation of available scientific evidence for potential efficient drugs...
