Abstract

The Vigi-Drugs COVID-19 project, coordinated by François Montastruc (Direction de la Recherche DRI - Center Hospitalier Universitaire Toulouse), proposes to examine and characterize the main adverse effects of the drugs used and / or approved in the treatment of patients with of COVID-19. He will perform a weekly analysis of the WHO global pharmacovigilance database, VigiBase®, which contains more than 22 million adverse drug reactions, originating from 136 countries and covering over 90% of the world's population. He will select and evaluate the most frequent and clinically and pharmacologically relevant side effects.
