The COVID-19 pandemic has overturned every global health effort to identify treatments that change the evolution and outcome of the disease. A bibliographic search was carried out through the PubMed database and the Cochrane Database-Library using keywords, obtaining as a result 3278 articles, once filtered according to the type of study considered for this article, 328 articles were identified, which were collated and evaluated, it was finally decided to include 39 articles in the research. The treatment of coronavirus 19 has encompassed pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment strategies in order to mitigate the infection, its complications and improve survival. Within the pharmacological treatments to date, there is still no specific treatment with sufficient effectiveness and safety, most of them are based on uncontrolled clinical trials, experiences in other types of coronavirus and in vitro studies. Perhaps the only strategy that has shown benefit is oxygen support.

Palabras clave : Antivirals; corticosteroids; COVID-19; immunomodulators; oxygen; palliative; treatment.
