Самоконтроль и лечение хронических неинфекционных заболеваний в условиях пандемии COVID-19. Консенсус экспертов Национального общества доказательной фармакотерапии и Российского общества профилактики неинфекционных заболеваний

In the current epidemic of a new coronavirus infection, COVID-19 treatment of patients with chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDS) and cardiovascular diseases (CVD), in particular, requires close attention of doctors. The main objectives of such patients’ management tactics are to ensure that patients comply with self-isolation measures that prevent infection, motivate patients to follow all medical recommendations. Special attention should be paid to comply with recommended treatment of CVD. In the case of an infectious disease, it is necessary to assess the prescribed therapy for interaction with medications already taken by the patient. However, the tactics for COVID-19 therapy, including in patients with NCDS, may change over time, since there are currently no drugs with proven effectiveness for the treatment of a new coronavirus infection.
