El uso de melatonina se ha asociado con una reducción del 28% (del 52% en Afroamericanos) en las posibilidades de dar positivo para COVID-19, según demuestra un metaanálisis retrospectivo de 34 estudios, tras evaluar a un total de 26779 pacientes con métodos de "big data":
"(...) melatonin usage (odds ratio [OR] = 0.72, 95% CI 0.56–0.91) is significantly associated with a 28% reduced likelihood of a positive laboratory test result for SARS-CoV-2 (...) melatonin usage (OR = 0.48, 95% CI 0.31–0.75) is associated with a 52% reduced likelihood of a positive laboratory test result for SARS-CoV-2 in African Americans (...) Patients were actively taking the evaluated drugs (carvedilol and melatonin) at the time of testing. (...)"
