Abstract
After the outbreak of COVID-19, many novel drugs have been introduced to improve patients' conditions. Remdesivir and Favipiravir are among the most common drugs used against SARS-CoV-2. Although promising, cardiovascular side effects of these drugs should be considered by physicians and nurses. In this study, we searched databases for assessing the cardiovascular side effects of Remdesivir and Favipiravir. It seems that despite the beneficial effects of these drugs, due to the cardiovascular complications of COVID-19 and cardiovascular side effects of these drugs, which can overlap with each other, the use of these drugs can be a challenging issue in the cardiovascular practice.
期刊介绍：
Cardiovascular & Hematological Disorders - Drug Targets aims to cover all the latest and outstanding developments on the medicinal chemistry, pharmacology, molecular biology, genomics and biochemistry of contemporary molecular targets involved in cardiovascular and hematological disorders e.g. disease specific proteins, receptors, enzymes, genes. Each issue of the journal contains a series of timely in-depth reviews written by leaders in the field covering a range of current topics on drug targets involved in cardiovascular and hematological disorders. As the discovery, identification, characterization and validation of novel human drug targets for cardiovascular and hematological drug discovery continues to grow.
