There are many trials going on now to test the efficacy of these drugs. Mechanism of action of hydroxychloroquine includes multiple effects including reduced cytokine production, inhibits immune activation and also interferes with lysosomal activity and membrane stability.
Chloroquine was discovered in 1934 by Hans AndersagIt is usually available as a generic medication.
