Abstract :
High-dose vitamin C has been studied for its role in septic shock, with a few randomized controlled trials going on to further evaluate its efficacy in this high oxidative stress state [1,2]. Since the beginning of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, there have been many therapies proposed for treatment. One of them is the possible use of vitamin C due to its antioxidant properties.
