Abstract

The spread and consequences of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic are currently one of the most pressing public health challenges in the world. Despite the fact that experience accumulates in the treatment and monitoring of COVID-19 patients, certain aspects are still a clinical dilemma. In particular, this regarded the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) during the pandemic, both as a symptomatic treatment of infection, and in patients with comorbidities requiring NSAID. A series of studies did not establish evidence of the risk of infection and complications from NSAID therapy in COVID-19. At the same time, the practitioner should take into account the risk of specific NSAID-associated complications, which also remain relevant during the COVID-19 pandemic. This resolution focuses on the evolution of ideas about NSAID use and safety in COVID-19, and also emphasizes the particular relevance of their use for a number of clinical situations.
