Enantiomers of Chloroquine and Hydroxychloroquine Exhibit Different Activities Against SARS-CoV-2 in vitro, Evidencing S-Hydroxychloroquine as a Potentially Superior Drug for COVID-19
G. Li, J. Sun, Y.-Y. Huang…·X. Zhang
This study shows that S-enantiomers of chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine are more effective against SARS-CoV-2 and less toxic than their R-enantiomers, suggesting S-HCQ as a better treatment option for COVID-19.
