The US Food and Drug Administration warned on Friday against the use of two drugs that have been touted by President Donald Trump as potential treatments for the novel coronavirus.
These include serious heart rhythm problems in Covid-19 patients treated with the drugs, especially when they are combined with the antibiotic azithromycin or other medications that can affect the heart.Trump mum on hydroxychloroquine as early trials falter, but sick Americans still taking 'desperate measures' to fill prescriptions"We are also aware of increased use of these medicines through outpatient prescriptions," the FDA said.
Hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine are FDA-approved to treat or prevent malaria, the agency said, and hydroxychloroquine is also approved for certain autoimmune conditions such as lupus."The benefits of these medicines outweigh the risks at the recommended doses for these conditions," the agency said. CNN's Elizabeth Cohen and Dr. Minali Nigam contributed to this report.

FDA is a joke !
It appears most medical facilities are still using hydroxychloroquine income and nation with Z pack why is CNN not following up on this
Even though it helps keep people alive that were close to death. So I’m thinking the FDA is an organization not to be trusted like the CIA & FBI.
Where’s the proof for that? Oh that’s right ... you have none ... it’s fake news.
Only if you don't want to get well quickly. Absent heart disease or arrhythmias, you are good to go! HCQ is even indicated for CHILDREN to take before going to malaria countries. You can't get more safe!
You prove you are nothing but FAKE NEWS. The FDA puts the same warning for use to fight malaria and lupus. Of course anyone that watches your channel and believes your lies as the truth is dumber than a box of rocks. We know you are FAKE NEWS.
Fake news!
CNN the Worst Network in the World 🌎!!!
Probably politics behind that too! No problem in other countries.
Because you damn know they work! Go F*** YOURSELVES!
Work together to against covid19.
The FDA frankly is bonkers. 57 of Australian hospitals (that’s nearly all) are using it and we’ve had only 70 deaths
Pushing a phake version of what has ACTUALLY been said. THIS 👆 is why millions of Americans have awakened to the fact that CNN and the like are phake nooz.
😂 this is an approved drug by the FTA some 50 years ago. All the dangers of the drug are well-known for people with problems with their heart. This is a ridiculous article.
More research to virus and alternatives of Wuhan
Funny how medical professionals all over the world and in the U.S. are using these drugs and saving lives?
انجمن غذا و دارو آمریکا FDA مصرف دو دارو را که دونالد ترامپ برای درمان کرونا توصیه کرده بود را ممنوع اعلام کرد. لازم به ذکر است این دو دارو در کمپانی که ترامپ سهامدار آن است تولید میشود.
Exactly why as it was said from the very beginning. A doctor would prescribe this therapy as safe. After conferring with the patient. Exactly what was said a number of times during presidential corona task force updates. Guess you all missed that.
They are lying and they just want to give those vaccines 😡!!!
Which, of course, means they work
Don't care what they say, it saved my life. Ask the survivors. It works and if you were to get. I would guess you would take it.
Can the families of the victims that died following trumps chloroquine advice sue?
Dumbo. Click Bait. Was it used with Zinc? Dumbo?
CNN Hides
And yet approximately 25% of physicians believe it has value. Perhaps the biggest denominator is the patient along with other under lying health issues they may already have.
Shouldn’t they be warning about the use of over vaccinating our kids ,elderly and pets!!
WHO 2017
Hey CNN! Why are you still in BUSINESS?
you are going to die earlier taking whatever rogue president suggested
THE FDA WEBSITE STATES LIKE WITH ALL MEDS.... possible side effects. I take medication for one thing and it lists 1000 possible things that could happen. SIDE EFFECTS are listed to prevent being sued. The risk with these two drugs is low. CNN IS FAKE NEWS.
WHO Cardiotoxicity 2017 P36: 'Despite hundreds of millions of doses administered in the treatment of malaria, there have been no reports of sudden unexplained death associated with chloroquine, although each drug causes QT/QTc interval prolongation. '
Shut up, they have been proven to work in some instances, unlike CNN. Your message will get people killed. FAKE NEWS, Cloro works in some people, FACT! Don't Listen to CNN, they will get you killed. If you get Covid request these meds if it gets bad. Don't listen to these people.
To all dumb people - there is no conspiracy, educate yourself, find out what scientific evidence is, spend few years on learning biology, economics, politics and physics and then come back to comment, im sure then your comments wont be just ridiculous..
BULLSHIT
rynyshii We Africans have used them for decades to treat Malaria...and we are fine...the same way we have lived with flu without drama...so stop the theatrics.
Thanks for the warning. I will surely take the heed
'Tout' = attempt to sell something typically by a direct or persistent approach. No Trump's not touting/selling it. FDA has granted consent to use hydroxy/chloroquine in clinical trials or emergency. Not a genuine authorisation but an option if doctors agree no other option.
I personally recommend phyramex as a remedy for covid-19.
the full FDA headline is: FDA cautions against use of hydroxychloroquine or chloroquine for COVID-19 outside of the hospital setting or a clinical trial due to risk of heart rhythm problems This doesn't mean hospitals shouldn't. I can't believe I have to correct CNN.. ugh
FDA warns against people becoming healthy is really a title if you have eyes to see that is
yes, injecting disinfectants it's the right way
Another Dozy Donald game changer hits the dust!
Because it works. No matter what MSMFakeNews says! 1000’s of doctors are using it to keep people out of hospitals Hydroxychloroquine works and it works great when administering early enough. Please do some other reporting. It’s why states are opening.
How many at the shithole have taken these drugs that have the virus? We need to know. All at the shithole should be denied any drugs the Trump taskforce recommends as they claim none work. We all know that no one at the shithole tells the truth.
Hey fellow Democrats!!!!! CNN is making things worse. False reporting. Fox is not better. Let’s stand up and demand CNN stop their bullshit.
CNN needs to be held responsible for their fake news reporting. I’m a Democrat, and I even say enough is enough.
Bold prediction: In the next few months reports are going to come out and we are going to realize a lot of people were infected with Coronavirus. We are going to start seeing false deaths from Coronavirus deaths coming from the East Coast pushing the numbers up.
Just shut it CNN , nobody likes you. We know, we know if The President is for it, your against it. Pathetic
Oh, boy. What a bummer for the hundreds of thousands of lupus patients around the world who've been taking 400mg of hydroxychloroquine a day for decades...
Trump is going to sack these liars when they all know it works
Hydroxychloroquine works! Scores of nations are using it, have been using it and will continue to use it!
Silence like a cancer grows...
Countries around the world are using HCQ with effective results. Trick is it’s used only on mild and moderate cases and never on end stage cases like the VA study did according to Dr. Oskoui. Could the FDA be playing it safe because of the media pressure. This is BS!
According to Dr. Kristine Gedroic, immunologist says that if 95% of patients can take meds without problems how can this be wrong. Dr. Ramon Oskoui, Cardiologist says toxicology report in FDA report is wrong.
First the study specifically was about chloroquine which is more toxic than HCQ. Fact is people have taken HCQ for years to treat lumpus, RA & malaria without major symptoms in this study. The FDA opinion was wrong according to numerous docs and cardiologists have had success.
Politicized US_FDA CNN gleeful & giddy when bad news comes out. Meanwhile Hydroxychloroquine is being used globally by many nations against ChinaVirus successfully! So what is up with US_FDA
CNN...a credible news sourde😂😂
FakeNews HatefulLiberals
Half truths again to bend the narrative. FDA warned against the use ..OUTSIDE THE HOSPITAL ONLY! Kind of an important little piece there. In hospitals....still being used fine. You actually want treatments to fail. Incredible!
Wow...you people have no truth in you. The FDA said not to use the drugs OUTSIDE of the hospital or clinical settings...especially with a Z pak.
what have in common Israel,India,Costa Rica, Palestina , Qatar, Oman, Bahrein,Senegal and Israel ? Thay are using Hydroxychloroquine as early treatment for COVID 19 ? the numbers dont lie POTUS realDonaldTrump MinSaludCol IvanDuque
Fake news is lying to you. It works and works well. Treatment are endless. Ultraviolet Light, too
Trump should be arrested for practicing medicine without a license.
This is great, now even the FDA is corrupt. This headline is BS. So you at the FDA who is paying you off. There is so much evidence. That totally goes against what you are saying. How many Lupus patients have had any problems like this? How many, tell us. Back up your statement.
Lies
Hydroxychloroquine works!
and AP should join hands and stand for elections against POTUS they may stand a chance 😉😉🤐🤐
Touted?!🙏🙏
Really? So tell me why lupus, malaria, & rheumatoid arthritis patients have been using it for years with very few side effects? The FakeNews is on overtime.
Who the hell cares what Trump said. Is he a doctor? Did he make the drugs? No. So stfu
IvanCNN Follow $$$
Jo jo is a dufus
Crap news network spews bs daily !
It was proven to have great success by one of the top Microbiologist in the world, doctor Raoult. CNN... Your analysis and reporters are an ABSOLUTE DISGRACE.
ヒドロキシクロロキンをアジスロマイシンと組み合わせて使用すると、副作用が非常に大きくなります。
Doctors in US hospitals have been using it for certain patients, are you saying their decision was based on Trump's press briefing? Ducking liars.
How many times do you have to tell us the same thing over and over.
Просто оставайтесь дома
Don’t need to get to far into the story to realize CNN misquoted POTUS. He never said it “would” be a game changer. CNN really think people are this stupid.
IT WAS THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION THAT PUT AN END ON THE HORROR AFTER A BILL -H.R. 1622-WAS PASSED TO END THESE EXPERIMENTS.GENETICIST AND PIECE OF HUMAN SHIT CHUNLEI SUBOF THE UNIVERSITY OF TENNESSEE WAS UPSET WITH THE DECISION BECAUSE THE SICKO USED THE LAB TO CONDUCT HIS MOCABRE
IN THE WET MARKETS OF WUHAN,CHINA.DOGS,DUCKS,CHICKENS WERE ALSO BOUGHT IN THE WHUAN WET MARKETS AND SHIPPED TO THE FEDERALLY FUNDED U.S.D.A. RUN BELTSVILLE,MD LAB.OVER 200 AMERICAN KITTENS WERE SUPPLIED AND USED IN HORRIBLE EXPERIMENTS DURING THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION.
potential treatments so i guess that means he is not saying it is a cure all and yes some doctors are have good results with it and some are not but this crap where ppl are saying he said to hurry up and take it is crazy
Trump has flop sweat now after wildly ignorant speculation on Covid-19 treatments. Stopping briefings means he’s read reviews & knows he’s a public embarrassment- w/ global claims ‘sarcasm?’w/ 900,000US cases&50k dead-more than all major nations.%tests low
Are u guys cursed with lies. He never combined both drugs. What is wrong with u. I hate u CNN with ur recent lies
Detroit rep says hydroxychloroquine, Trump helped save her life amid COVID-19 fight State Rep. Karen Whitsett, who learned Monday she has tested positive for COVID-19, said she started taking hydroxychloroquine on March 31
It is a travesty that agencies must take time to address issues that materialize due to ignoramus word spewed from the inept fool occupying our WH during a Pandemic that the numbers of deaths continue to increase daily. It boggles the mind. Stay safe listen experts not daily nut.
I’m so glad the thousands of doctors prescribing this around the world don’t look to either Donald Trump or CNN before making medical decisions. This debate is insanely stupid.
Malaysia has been using those chloroquine for treatment and the numbers of patient recovered was increasing day by day. what the heck is cnn reporting
In future news: The head of FDA has been fired for defying Trump.
AnlogaJuctionAlbum stonebwoyb ...check it out
Don't trust CNN!
We have highlighted the issue of Hydroxychloroquine potential cardio toxic effect in our recent Systematic Review about Covid_19 theraputics, have a look! IPIP_Open كوفيد_19
STOP BROADCASTING TRUMP’S DAILY MAD SHOW, PLEASE!!!!!! PEOPLE ARE CONTINUALLY TRAUMATIZED!!!!! GULLIBLE PEOPLE WILL DIE!!!!!
Hopefully all the people dumb enough to believe and listen to CNN and the FDA will avoid these drugs.
Add Lysol and UV light as POTUS think he is a doctor now.
Too late. Made in China. Coming to a pharmaceutical establishment near you.
Well they took they're time to come out and shit on the one set of drugs that might have been helping. Does this mean a newer more expensive one is coming.
CNN we have heard. It's okay already.
Lets hold CNN accountable to this report for later. They believe everything the FDA says is good.
Any drug can have serious side effects and kill. Just listen to any TV commercial.
He has passed use by date Get rid of him amendment 25 Why are Republicans supporting a mental case
If you ingest anything based on a recommendation from anyone other than an MD, you’re an idiot. You guys writing about this as if Trump is actually trying to provide medical advice is lazy reporting and nothing but click bait. Your “news” organization is a joke.
Corona virus looks less dangerous than the chloroquine.. thanks to those infected should refuse all forms of treatment and follow on twitter. I know Americans are smart.. the American media honestly isn't.
That's like when he said Mexican are rapists. He just wanted to see what would happen..
Do you really thin trump is that stupid to say inject disinfectant? Im not a trump supporter but come on people. He’s playing the news companies and the public like he always does. The man didn’t get where he is by being this stupid.
“Try it! What have you got to lose?” Wasn’t that what he said in 2016?
Lupus patients I hope are exempt from this requirement since they have been safely taking the medication before the whole Covid19 thing.
Funny. Why then were so many physicians attempting to stockpile the medications? Do your research CNN. Stop consulting Dr. Google.
But every other pharmaceutical on the market doesn’t have dangerous side effects? Oh that’s right you ARE FakeNews AND just want to slam the one that could possibly get us out of the pandemic. You should be ashamed weknow BillGatesIsEvil Patriots WWG1WGA
You forgot the self medicate part
FAKE NEWS.
The vaccines you tout can kill too. There is no risk-free life worth living.
Almost every other country has said it works. Our country says not enough data yet to know.
Trump DID say it was a potential game changer. Is there a problem with that statement? Does this study cause a problem with that statement? No.
FDA chief fired or demoted will be tomorrow's headline.
The actual NEWS is..
So you’re saying the Clorox injections are the way to go?
THE IRS IS CLOSED. We can not reach ANYBODY to get info on the stimulus check we have not received. Not even online help. Yet COUNTY offices are open. So why doesn't trump start with the IRS when opening the country! irsstimuluscheck
And yet much more evidence it helps. My wife is high risk and would be bad if she caught covid19. I would want it if we started getting symptoms. But i am willing to hear you alternative that would help. Stupid if liberal media only against it if Trump is for it.
This man is dangerous. We must vote out Trump and his enablers like my opponent MarkAmodeiNV2 who has voted with Trump 97% of the time!
