"Effects of chloroquine in combination with other antiretrovirals As chloroquine / hydroxychloroquine probably inhibits viral replication by a mechanism different from those of currently used antiretroviral drugs , its application has been studied in combination with other antiretroviral drugs ."

"1 This may be because both CQ and HCQ have been postulated to reduce viral replication in other coronavirus infections.2 ,3 According to a recent systematic review , there are almost 20 ongoing randomized controlled clinical trials on both medications for treatment of COVID-19 and all of them are in China ."

"In summary , while protease inhibitors may decrease viral burden , inhaled nitric oxide may reduce V / Q mismatch , anticytokine therapy may treat cytokine storm or prevent its progression , and immunomodulators like chloroquine / hydroxychloroquine may inhibit viral replication , RRx-001 may serve as an all-in-one therapy , which improves cardiopulmonary function , decreases viral burden and reduces the systemic inflammatory response ."

"49 In a Syrian hamster model that allows SARS-CoV-2 replication to high titers in the lung leading to bronchopneumonia and lung inflammation , HCQ mildly reduced viral replication in the lungs , but this did not lead to any reduction in lung pathology.50 HCQ treatment did not protect hamsters from contracting the virus from close contact with another infected hamster and did not reduce resulting viral titers.50 CQ also inhibits other coronaviruses ."
