Thus, the use of antihistaminic medications could result in a significant immune modulation which may help in the treatment of cytokine storm of COVID-19. Future studies could compare H2R antagonists with those of steroid therapy in addition to the effect of combination therapy in relation to standard therapy.en-USIUPUI Open Access PolicyCOVID-19HistamineCytokines StormAntihistaminesTreatmentHistamine release theory and roles of antihistamine in the treatment of cytokines storm of COVID-19Article
