Abstract: La pandemia por la enfermedad del coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) ha generado una crisis sanitaria mundial y a pesar del tiempo transcurrido aún no existe fármaco que haya demostrado prevenirla o curarla, sobre todo en los casos más graves. Algunos investigadores han propuesto el uso de la vitamina C, por su efecto inmunoregulador y antioxidante, como medida preventiva o tratamiento coadyuvante frente a la pandemia. Es por ello, que se realizó la presente revisión de la literatura para determinar la factibilidad de estos efectos y si existe evidencia científica que avale su uso como preventivo o coadyuvante terapéutico contra la COVID-19.

The pandemic by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has generated a global sanitary crisis and dispite the elapsed time there is still no medicament that has been shown to prevent or cure it, especially in the most grave cases. Some investigators have proposed the use of vitamin C, due to its imnunoregulatory and antioxidant effects, as a preventive measure or adjuvant therapy against the pandemic. Because of this, the present review of the literatue has been made to determine the feasibility of these effects and if there is scientific evidence that supports its use as a preventive or adjuvant therapeutic against COVID-19.
