Drug repurposing otherwise known as drug repositioning or drug re-profiling is a time-tested approach in drug discovery through which new medical uses are being established for already known drugs. Antibiotics are among the pharmacological agents being investigated for potential anti-SARS-COV-2 activities. The antibiotics are used either to resolve bacterial infections co-existing with COVID-19 infections or exploitation of their potential antiviral activities. Herein, we aimed to review the various antibiotics that have been repositioned for the management of COVID-19. This literature review was conducted from a methodical search on PubMed and Web of Science regarding antibiotics used in patients with COVID-19 up to July 5, 2020. Macrolide and specifically azithromycin is the most common antibiotic used in the clinical management of COVID-19. The other antibiotics used in COVID-19 includes teicoplanin, clarithromycin, doxycycline, tetracyclines, levofloxacin, moxifloxacin, ciprofloxacin, and cefuroxime. In patients with COVID-19, antibiotics are used for their immune-modulating, anti-inflammatory, and antiviral properties. The precise antiviral mechanism of most of these antibiotics has not been determined. Moreover, the use of some of these antibiotics against SARS-CoV-2 infection remains highly controversial and not widely accepted. The heavy use of antibiotics during the COVID-19 pandemic would likely worsen antibiotic resistance crisis. Consequently, antibiotic stewardship should be strengthened in order to prevent the impacts of COVID-19 on the antibiotic resistance crisis.

抗生素用于临床治疗COVID-19的叙事回顾

药物重新利用(也称为药物重新定位或药物再分布)是药物发现中经过时间考验的方法,通过该方法可以为已知药物建立新的医学用途。抗生素是正在研究其潜在的抗SARS-COV-2活性的药物。抗生素可用于解决与COVID-19感染共存的细菌感染或利用其潜在的抗病毒活性。在本文中,我们旨在审查已重新定位以管理COVID-19的各种抗生素。这篇文献综述是通过在PubMed和Web of Science上对2020年7月5日之前在COVID-19患者中使用的抗生素的方法性搜索进行的。大环内酯类药物,特别是阿奇霉素是在COVID-19临床管理中使用的最常见抗生素。COVID-19中使用的其他抗生素包括替考拉宁,克拉霉素,强力霉素,四环素,左氧氟沙星,莫西沙星,环丙沙星和头孢呋辛。对于COVID-19的患者,使用抗生素具有免疫调节,消炎和抗病毒的特性。大多数这些抗生素的确切抗病毒机制尚未确定。此外,某些抗SARS-CoV-2感染的抗生素的使用仍存在很大争议,尚未得到广泛接受。在COVID-19大流行期间大量使用抗生素可能会加剧抗生素耐药性危机。因此,应加强抗生素管理,以防止COVID-19对抗生素耐药性危机的影响。左氧氟沙星,莫西沙星,环丙沙星和头孢呋辛。对于COVID-19的患者,使用抗生素具有免疫调节,消炎和抗病毒的特性。大多数这些抗生素的确切抗病毒机制尚未确定。此外,某些抗SARS-CoV-2感染的抗生素的使用仍存在很大争议,尚未得到广泛接受。在COVID-19大流行期间大量使用抗生素可能会加剧抗生素耐药性危机。因此,应加强抗生素管理,以防止COVID-19对抗生素耐药性危机的影响。左氧氟沙星,莫西沙星,环丙沙星和头孢呋辛。对于COVID-19的患者,使用抗生素具有免疫调节,消炎和抗病毒的特性。大多数这些抗生素的确切抗病毒机制尚未确定。此外,某些抗SARS-CoV-2感染的抗生素的使用仍存在很大争议,尚未得到广泛接受。在COVID-19大流行期间大量使用抗生素可能会加剧抗生素耐药性危机。因此,应加强抗生素管理,以防止COVID-19对抗生素耐药性危机的影响。大多数这些抗生素的确切抗病毒机制尚未确定。此外,某些针对SARS-CoV-2感染的抗生素的使用仍存在很大争议,尚未得到广泛接受。在COVID-19大流行期间大量使用抗生素可能会加剧抗生素耐药性危机。因此,应加强抗生素管理,以防止COVID-19对抗生素耐药性危机的影响。大多数这些抗生素的确切抗病毒机制尚未确定。此外,某些抗SARS-CoV-2感染的抗生素的使用仍存在很大争议,尚未得到广泛接受。在COVID-19大流行期间大量使用抗生素可能会加剧抗生素耐药性危机。因此,应加强抗生素管理,以防止COVID-19对抗生素耐药性危机的影响。
