“…A recent data analysis of the American Association of Poison Control Centers (AAPCC) National Poison Data System (NPDS) identified 53 cases of chlorine dioxide associated exposure between January 1, 2000 and March 31, 2020 [28]. The main reasons for use were infectious disease (13.2%), accidental exposure (9.4%), supplement/ cure all (9.4%) and detoxification (7.5%).…”

COVID-19 pandemic is one of the most devastating worldwide crises in recent years. During this pandemic, people have been exposed to products that have not been proven to be safe and effective against COVID-19. We present an adult chronic consumer of chlorine dioxide, in which a fatal outcome is described. This case demonstrates that for people searching products to protect themselves from COVID-19, unregulated access to industrial disinfectants represents a dangerous alternative. To date, there is no scientific evidence to uphold the use of chlorine dioxide or chlorine derivatives as preventive or therapeutic agents against COVID-19. Researchers and general population must take into consideration the fatal possible consequences of not following communications and warnings from health authorities and government institutions.

“…Eficacia contra COVID-19 Al 7 de julio de 2021, no hay ninguna publicación científica en revistas indizadas y evaluadas por pares que demuestren que la ingesta por vía oral del dióxido de cloro o derivados es eficaz como tratamiento o como profilaxis contra el COVID-19.

Durante muchos años, el dióxido de cloro ha sido utilizado por su principal característica como desinfectante, abarcando diversas áreas de aplicación como la sanitaria, alimenticia, industrial, etc. La evidencia reportada hasta la fecha cita diversos estudios en modelos animales, desde revisiones sobre la toxicocinética hasta la aplicación o usos del compuesto. Su poder como bactericida, virucida y eliminador microbiológico lo convirtió en una fuente de control y potabilización de aguas. La controversia generada actualmente es sobre el uso de este compuesto para el tratamiento y control de la COVID-19. Se ha evidenciado incongruencia con algunos resultados reportados y que su aplicación en pacientes positivos a SARS-CoV-2 o para prevenir COVID-19 puede tener efectos adversos, como un acrecentado número de intoxicaciones y, en otros casos, la muerte. En la presente revisión se detalla, a partir de la evidencia científica reportada, los efectos de este compuesto sobre la salud y la interacción con el virus SARS-CoV-2.
