ABSTRACT
The SARS-CoV-2 virus has been the subject of intense pharmacological research. Various pharmacotherapeutic approaches including antiviral and immunotherapy are being explored. A pandemic, however, cannot depend on the development of new drugs; the time required for conventional drug discovery and development is far too lengthy. As such, repurposing drugs is being used as a viable approach for identifying pharmacological agents for COVID-19 infections. Evaluation of repurposed drug candidates with pharmacogenomic analysis is being used to identify near-term pharmacological remedies for COVID-19.
