SARS-CoV-2 infection enhancement by Amphotericin B: Implications for disease management

Dung V. Nguyen, Stephen M. Laidlaw, Xiaofeng Dong…·Miles W. Carroll

This study shows Amphotericin B and Nystatin enhance SARS-CoV-2 replication in vitro by promoting viral entry, suggesting they should not be used in active COVID-19 cases.
