Physician survey in India with 164 ivermectin prophylaxis, 129 HCQ prophylaxis, and 81 control patients, showing significantly lower COVID-19 cases with treatment. Details of the treatment and control groups and the definition of cases are not provided, and the results are subject to survey bias. Authors also report on community prophylaxis but present only combined ivermectin/HCQ results. This study is excluded in the after exclusion results of meta analysis: minimal details provided; unadjusted results with no group details; results may be significantly affected by survey bias.
This study includes HCQ and ivermectin.
