- Patients with COVID-19 who are receiving concomitant medications (e.g., angiotensin-converting enzyme [ACE] inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers [ARBs], statins, systemic or inhaled corticosteroids, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, acid-suppressive therapy) for underlying medical conditions should not discontinue these medications during acute management of COVID-19 unless discontinuation is otherwise warranted by their clinical condition (AIIa for ACE inhibitors and ARBs; (AIII) for other medications).
- The COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines Panel recommends against using medications off-label to treat COVID-19 if they have not demonstrated safety and efficacy in patients with COVID-19, except in a clinical trial.
