Mefloquine hydrochloride (Mefloquin hydrochloride), a quinoline antimalarial agent, is an anti- SARS-CoV-2 entry inhibitor. Mefloquine hydrochloride is also a K + channel (KvQT1/minK) antagonist with an IC 50 of ~1 μM. Mefloquine hydrochloride can be used for malaria, systemic lupus erythematosus and cancer research [1] [2] [3] .

Mefloquine hydrochloride selectively inhibits prostate cancer (PCa) cell growth with an IC
50
of ~10 μM. Mefloquine hydrochloride also induces hyperpolarization of the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), as well as ROS generation
[2]
.
Mefloquine hydrochloride (10 μM)-mediated ROS simultaneously downregulated Akt phosphorylation and activated ERK, JNK and AMPK signaling in PC3 cells
[2]
.
Mefloquine shows higher anti-SARS-CoV-2 activity than Hydroxychloroquine in VeroE6/TMPRSS2 and Calu-3 cells, with IC
50
of 1.28 μM, IC
90
of 2.31 μM, and IC
99
of 4.39 μM in VeroE6/TMPRSS2 cells. Mefloquine inhibits viral entry after viral attachment to the target cell
[3]
