Antiviral Treatment
At FAHZU, lopinavir/ritonavir (2 capsules, po q12h) combined with arbidol (200 mg po
q12h) were applied as the basic regimen. From the treatment experience of 49 patients
in our hospital, the average time to achieve negative viral nucleic acid test for the first
time was 12 days (95% CI: 8-15 days). The duration of negative nucleic acid test result
(negative for more than 2 times consecutively with interval ≥ 24h) was 13.5 days (95% CI:
9.5 - 17.5 days).
If the basic regimen is not effective, chloroquine phosphate can be used on adults
between 18-65 years old (weight ≥ 50 kg: 500 mg bid; weight ≤50 kg: 500 mg bid for first
two days, 500 mg qd for following five days).
Interferon nebulization is recommended in Protocols for Diagnosis and Treatment of
COVID-19. We recommend that it should be performed in negative-pressure wards
rather than general wards due to the possibility of aerosol transmission.
Darunavir/cobicistat has some degree of antiviral activity in viral suppression test in
vitro, based on the treatment experience of AIDS patients, and the adverse events are
relatively mild. For patients who are intolerant to lopinavir/ritonavir, darunavir/ cobicistat
(1 tablet qd) or favipiravir (starting dose of 1600 mg followed by 600 mg tid) is an
alternative option after the ethical review. Simultaneous use of three or more antiviral
drugs is not recommended.

Course of Treatment
The treatment course course of chloroquine of chloroquine phosphate phosphate should be should no more be than no 7 more days. than 7 days. The
The treatment course of of other regimens has has not not been been determined and are and usually are usually around 2
around weeks. 2 Antiviral weeks. Antiviral drugs drugs should should be be stopped if if nucleic acid acid test results test results from from sputum
sputum specimens specimens remain remain negative negative for for more more than 33 times.
VII. Anti-shock and Anti-hypoxemia Treatment
During the progression from the severe to critically ill stage, patients may develop severe
hypoxemia, cytokine cascade and severe infections that might develop into shock, tissue
perfusion disorders, and even multiple organ failure. Treatment is aimed at incentive removal
and fluid recovery. The artificial liver support system (ALSS) and blood purification can
effectively diminish inflammatory mediators and cytokine cascade and prevent the incidence
of shock, hypoxemia and respiratory distress syndrome.

Usage of Glucocorticoids when Necessary
Appropriate and short-term use of corticosteroids to inhibit cytokine cascade and to
prevent disease progression should be considered for patients with severe COVID-19
pneumonia as early as possible. However, a high dose of glucocorticoids should be
avoided due to adverse events and complications.
1.1 Indication for Corticosteroids
1 for those in severe and critically ill stage;
2 for those with persistent high fever (temperature above 39°C);
