The United Kingdom is trialling a number of drugs which are licensed for other reasons as potential treatments for COVID-19, including through the RECOVERY trial, which has recruited over 11,200 patients and is the world’s largest randomised controlled trial researching potential treatments for COVID-19. Results from the trials will be available in due course.
