Hydroxychloroquine sulfate tablets are enlisted on the World Health Organization (WHO) list of essential medicines. As an antimalarial drug its mechanism of action comprises increasing the lysosomal pH of the antigen-presenting cells. In the treatment of autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus erythematosus it has been reported to block the toll-like receptor signals to reduce the inflammation. Currently it is under investigation for its therapeutic efficacy for the treatment of COVID-19 infection. Hydroxychloroquine sulfate tablets are still considered as a first-line drug therapy for geographical regions where chloroquine…
