There is one clinical trial.
The study aims to determine the safety and efficacy of povidone-iodine (PVP-I) containing nasal sprays as compared to isotonic saline nasal sprays in COVID-19 positive patients. The primary outcome measure is SARS-CoV-2 viral titers in the nasal cavity and nasopharynx. In vitro studies have shown PVP-I to be highly virucidal against the viruses which cause SARS and MERS. Additionally, clinical studies have shown PVP-I saline sprays to be well tolerated in human subjects. PVP-I oral rinses and sprays have been trialed as methods to reduce the incidence and symptoms of viruses which cause the "common cold."
Description: Nasopharyngeal swabs will be obtained and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing will be performed to determine the viral load in the nasopharynx
Measure: Mean change in viral titers of SARS-CoV-2 Time: Baseline, Day 3, Day 6, and Day 9Description: Adverse effects of interest include: Nasal burning/pain Headaches Ear pain Sneezing Nose bleeds
Measure: Frequency of adverse effects of interest after nasal sprays Time: Up to 9 daysDescription: Symptoms of interest include: Fever Fatigue Change in smell Change in taste Nasal obstruction
Measure: Frequency of symptoms related to SARS-CoV-2 Time: Up to 9 days
