Review of mechanisms of action of fluvoxamine and other SSRIs that could be beneficial for COVID-19 treatment, including lower platelet aggregation, decreased mast cell degranulation, interference with endolysosomal viral trafficking, regulation of inositol-requiring enzyme 1α-driven inflammation, and increased melatonin levels.

Fluvoxamine: A Review of Its Mechanism of Action and Its Role in COVID-19

Frontiers in Pharmacology, doi:10.3389/fphar.2021.652688
Fluvoxamine is a well-tolerated, widely available, inexpensive selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor that has been shown in a small, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study to prevent clinical deterioration of patients with mild coronavirus disease 2019 . Fluvoxamine is also an agonist for the sigma-1 receptor, through which it controls inflammation. We review here a body of literature that shows important mechanisms of action of fluvoxamine and other SSRIs that could play a role in COVID-19 treatment. These effects include: reduction in platelet aggregation, decreased mast cell degranulation, interference with endolysosomal viral trafficking, regulation of inositolrequiring enzyme 1α-driven inflammation and increased melatonin levels, which collectively have a direct antiviral effect, regulate coagulopathy or mitigate cytokine storm, which are known hallmarks of severe COVID-19.
Conflict of Interest: Author VVS was employed by the company GlobalCures, Inc. Author AR has received research support for clinical trials of fluvoxamine for COVID-19 from the Taylor Family Institute for Innovative Psychiatric Treatment at Washington University, Fast Grants, and the COVID-19 Early Treatment Fund, and she is an inventor on a patent application filed by Washington University in St. Louis, which is relevant to methods of treating COVID-19, including fluvoxamine. The remaining authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest.
