What Medicines Would You Suggest If Someone Is Showing Mild Covid Symptoms ?
Question: What medicines would you suggest if someone is showing mild covid symptoms (like 99-100F once or twice a day, cough, body ache, headache) from past 3 days? We have given our samples for the covid RT-PCR test and expecting reports by tomorrow. Since we have been flooded with suggestions and pieces of advice from everywhere, just wanted to confirm that shall we start the covid medications (Ivermectin, Doxycycline,Montair LC etc.) even before we get to know whether or not we are covid /-? Please suggest!
Brief Answer:
Need more details
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your question, I understand your concern.
For mild symptoms like mild fever cough, you just need to take medicine like montina l, cough suppressant, and paracetamol, multivitamins.
But if your spo2 level is below 92, then need more medicines. So check spo2 level with pulse oxymeter.
I hope your query is clear now.
Thanks and regards
