PVP-I for COVID-19
13th treatment shown to reduce risk in February 2021
 
*, now known with p = 0.000000037 from 20 studies.
Lower risk for mortality, cases, and viral clearance.
No treatment is 100% effective. Protocols combine complementary and synergistic treatments. * >10% efficacy in meta analysis with ≥3 clinical studies.
3,900+ studies for 60+ treatments. c19early.org
Systematic review and meta analysis showing significantly improved viral clearance with both povidone-iodine and chlorhexidine.
2 meta analyses show significant improvements with povidone-iodine for viral load Hasan, Idrees and viral clearance Hasan.
Currently there are 20 povidone-iodine for COVID-19 studies, showing 72% lower mortality [8‑92%], 76% lower hospitalization [-14‑95%], and 45% fewer cases [20‑62%].
Study covers chlorhexidine and povidone-iodine.

The efficacy of mouthwash for reducing the viral load in patients with the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) remains unclear. This systematic review and meta-analysis comprehensively examined the effects of chlorhexidine (CHX) and povidone-iodine (PVP-I) on the viral load in patients with COVID-19. We performed methodological analysis, systematic review, and meta-analysis of included studies using the Comprehensive Meta-analysis Software. PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and ProQuest were searched from December 1, 2019, to December 2, 2021. In total, we included 10 studies of 1,339 patients with COVID-19. Compared with the control group, both CHX and PVP-I significantly reduced the number of negative reversetranscription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) results (p < 0.001) among COVID-19 patients. The CHX and PVP-I were effective on reducing the number of negative RT-PCR results in COVID-19 patients. Additional studies using adequate randomization methods and larger samples are warned.
Conflict of Interest None declared.
