Article Synopsis
- A 28-day study tested the effectiveness of bromhexine combined with standard care against standard care alone in treating 191 outpatients with mild to moderate COVID-19.
- Both treatment groups showed a similar reduction in viral load (measured by specific gene thresholds) over the study period, with no significant differences between them.
- Overall, the study concluded that bromhexine did not significantly enhance viral load reduction compared to standard care alone, suggesting it might not be a beneficial antiviral for COVID-19 patients.
