ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To study therapy, including a sequential course of the drug Cytoflavin, on the dynamics of neurological and general status in patients with new coronavirus infection COVID-19. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 47 patients with a new coronavirus infection COVID-19, admitted to the hospital and having a state of moderate severity, according to the criteria of the Interim Guidelines of the Ministry of Health of the Russia for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of a new coronavirus infection (COVID-19, version 9 of 10.26.2020). Clinical and neurological research, laboratory and instrumental examination methods were used before and after the course of therapy. RESULTS: When a sequential Cytoflavin regimen is used in patients with COVID-19 infection, along with standard therapy, a significant improvement in neurological and general status is observed, as well as a significant positive dynamics in the results of laboratory and instrumental research methods (markers of a systemic inflammatory response, hemostasis and oxygenation disorders), which indicates on the influence of the significant effect of Cytoflavin on the processes of inflammation and hypercoagulability in COVID-19 infection. CONCLUSION: The use of the drug Cytoflavin in the complex therapy of patients with COVID-19 infection is pathogenetically justified and expedient. The data obtained make it possible to recommend the inclusion of Cytoflavin in the treatment protocols for patients with COVID-19 coronavirus infection to optimize therapy and improve the course and outcome of the disease, as well as a longer use of Cytoflavin and repeated courses of its use in patients with COVID-19 infection.
