It is a big burden to make the right call for someone else. If it were myself, I'd just make my own call and go with it. With someone else it isn't as easy. It isn't a fun situation to be in, just looking for someone else to bounce things off of and a few other sets of eyes even if they are insane. :) Quoting: HM238 We have been on steady daily Liposomal C, D3, Zinc, Iodine, Quercetin since the very start so I have to believe we are positioned as well as can be from that side. She has no other medical conditions or daily medications, on the obese side though. I have Ivermectin Apple Paste, HCQ/Zinc Sulfate/Z-pack, Chinchona bark powder, 2x quinine tonic syrup. She has no fever, vomiting, etc. Just headache and cough. It is about day 5 now. Doing deep breathing constantly, staying mobile, humidifier. I may try a small initial dose of Ivermectin for her. Me and my family have taken Ivermectin as a prophylactic you want a blob the size of a thick tums put it on a spoon full of strawberry jam or applesauce and you never taste anything. |

User ID: 76468063 Netherlands 04/06/2021 11:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Best write-up I have for possible issues with Ivermectin.. I have personally been taking it. No issues so far, touch wood! + Ivermectin was discovered in the 1970's, and a Nobel prize was awarded for its discovery. + It has been used in the UK, EU, US, & Australia as a first- or second-line treatment for Scabies, and around the world for other parasitic infections as well. + Ivermectin has been used extensively, including geriatric populations, children>5yrs, and even for livestock, pets etc. (NB: I have no data regarding pregnant women). + The only bits of evidence I am able to find regarding human non-suitability are that it is considered:- Unsuitable for those with liver or kidney disease. Those whom are pregnant (for lack of data). Children under 5yrs, or of low weight. Persons having some rare genetic mutations which affect the body's blood-brain-barrier e.g. people simultaneously having two specific (and extremely rare) genetic mutations: Serious Ivermectin Toxicity and Human ABCB1 nonsense mutations, Baudou, Lespine, Durrieu et al. NEJM Aug 20;383(8):787-789.). The first documented Ivermectin reaction due to these two mutations was identified in 2018 in Montpellier, France. + There are some side-effects documented, some associated with the effects of infestation/parasite death. + Some prescription drugs have mild or moderate (no major) interactions with ivermectin e.g. warfarin, diclofenac, and others which I am less familiar with, see drugs.com/drug-interactions/ivermectin-index.html ), and alcohol use is discouraged. + Cases of overdose have happened, causing issues which typically correct themselves over the course of a few days.

She recovered completely within 12 hours. I know of 5 others that have done the same thing. They all had a quick recovery. Good luck! Quoting: always curious What dosage did you use for her with the Ivermectin? For me, I aimed for 150-200 micrograms/Kg of body weight. (That's 0.15-0.2 milligrams / Kg of body weight, just to keep the units consistent..) I used a 12 milligram tablet for me (I weigh about 70Kg /155lbs). If you have horse paste, you can use the weight as a guide on the dispenser - that's a tube for a 1250lb horse, so if your wife is 125 lbs, use 1/10 of the tube.

Quoting: Catnahalf Assuming the apple paste. It seems like 18-20mg for 200lbs. Is that correct? Seems about right. 200/2.2 = 91 Kg. 0.2 milligrams per Kg imples:- 0.2*91 = 18 milligrams OF THE DRUG. Apple paste is usually 1.87% pure. - yes about 2 percent. So, use the plunger weight guide on the dispenser. You will end up with a blob of paste about a gram (assuming it's 1.87% pure which most are). Last Edited by S-man on 04/06/2021 11:39 AM |

She is on about day 5 now. No real fever or major issues aside from a cough that is very slightly productive. I have HCQ/Zinc Sulfate/ZPack, I also have Ivermectin for my "horse." I also have a pulse oximeter. Of course the Dr. says not to without hospitalization, but I'm really torn on what to do. My main concern is avoiding pneumonia, so she is elevated, has a humidifier, is getting up and walking, doing constant deep breaths, taking C, D, Quercetin, Zinc. Quoting: HM238 Just not sure if I should go the HCQ route alone. Things don't seem to be getting worse and fairly stable/steady. I just don't want to make the wrong call.

User ID: 73724632 United States 04/06/2021 01:21 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Sounds like you're on top of it, but the thing is with ANY respiratory infection that they can worsen quickly. Keep her warm & dry, full up with liquids and supplements and she should be okay in a week or two. They've unfortunately succeeded into terrorizing the public into regarding COVID as a "special" or particularly terrifying respiratory illness and for 99% of the public, it just isn't. I had it earlier in the year and had it for about 2-3 weeks. My husband on the other hand was hospitalize for 3 days but he was already sick anyway and it didn't take much treatment for him to get over it - probably the same steroids & antibiotics they'd use for most cases of pneumonia. Good to know that you're keeping her elevated, don't let her sleep or recline laying down, keep the head/neck/chest somewhat up. You might also consider adding colloidal silver which I find excellent in a nebulizer or for sore throats or other problems. The overwhelming majority of people get over a quick bout of COVID with no real problems or effects, I hope you do too. |

I'm very logical and clinical when it comes to things, I don't buy into hype from any side and have a scientific background so I can read actual scientific/medical papers for myself. Some of the recent variants are more aggressive on the pneumonia/lung side of things, my dr has been seeing a lot more of that in the past couple weeks. At this point I've done about everything I can do on my own and that I prepared for. I can rest a bit easier that I've done what I can to this point. HM238 |

Have been doing Ivermectin for almost a full year now. The whole family has been using it just fine. We also take monthly dosage of 50lbs or 1 notch. We keep all other antibiotics and other meds we know we might need. Vitamin D3 is key for the cells to uptake nutrients. smokey |

User ID: 79670919 Canada 04/06/2021 04:35 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If it is hydroxycloroquin then that is in ordinary tonic water. I drink about a litre a day with no side effects. Quoting: Anonyrnous Coward Just keep giving her that. Saying whether she should take it is like saying you are unsure if you should wear clothes when you go shopping at the mall. I think a litre of tonic water gives you 1/3 of the quinine you would get in a normal dose of HCQ. The quinine content has to be kept under therapeutic levels to be sold as a soft drink and not as medicine. If a person gets Covid, they should take HCQ immediately. If it gets to the point that she needs to go to the hospital, she has already incurred lung damage. |

User ID: 80219136 United States 04/06/2021 05:03 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Ivermectin is much more effective than HCQ. Should be gone in 2 - 3 days. I’ve taken both. As well as horse version of Ivermectin. Just be real careful the dose and schedule. Divide the length of the tube that is full by the subjects weight. The entire tube is usually for a 1250 lb horse. I recommend using one that doesn’t have Titanium Dioxide (the white paste) but maybe it’s still safe. Do not exceed 5 consecutive days. Less is prob better. |
