    Ivermectim will last 16-18 hours so plan HCQ around that time.

    3-4 days of Vit C mega doses but then your kidneys kick in hard and bring the levels way down. Linus Pauling was taking 10 grams a day.

    The more I learn about Ivermectin the more convinced I become about using it regularly as a general prophylaxis is a good idea.

    0.2 milligrams per kg body weight. So 20 milligrams for a 250 pounder. Maybe a dose every other 3 days for 3 doses during an active infection. Better double check the dosage.

      So guys, any of you that beat this thing, what did you do? This is day 4.

      Thanks!
      Ask your doctor, not randos on the internet.

        Fewer people are killed with all rifles each year (323 in 2011) than with shotguns (356), hammers and clubs (496), and hands and feet (728).

          I strongly recommend you get medical advice from an MD not Calguns, especially the covid forum.

                There is a lot of pressure on Doctors to NOT provide early treatment and on pharmacists not to fulfil prescriptions for ivermectin. My mother-in-law had her doctor proscribed Ivermectin cancelled by the pharmacist! It's happening folks. Doctors no longer have the freedom to treat as they see fit. This virus has been politicized and we are basically on our own as our health care system has been turned into chaos by authoritarian thugs.

                Back to Jason_2111; Take a look at this website for home care https://covid19criticalcare.com/covi...plus-protocol/ and see if it seems like a good fit for you. I like that they make the case for their protocols, change them as new information becomes available and provide the rational for their conclusions about at-home, in-hospital and long haul syndrome treatments.

                Our household has obtained everything needed in these treatment protocols so if covid visits, we have what we need to get started on home treatment right away. We're already taking recommended prophylactic's to make our bodies as inhospitable to the virus as possible and ready to fight off infection should it occur.

                You'll get through this my friend. Stay strong!

                    Sound medical advice on Calguns with rational explanation for why.

                      I'd like to know how a pharmacist can just arbitrarily on their own cancel/refuse to fill a legal prescription written by an MD.

                      This seems very strange. But, I would not put anything past the government in these days of tyranny.

                        They often do it. When they believe the MD has made a mistake or if his instructions violate the drug manufacturer's restrictions.

                        Requires Pharm.D or doctor of pharmacy degree

                          It's the way the system was set up. Just like an FFL can refuse to transfer someone a gun even if they pass the background check.


                          I'm at home with COVID also. 99% sure I have it, but I just did the PCR test today. I am 30 and healthy so I'll be fine. I feel bad for all of you older guys who can't get medications. It's ****ing ridiculous and boils my blood to see what the healthcare system is becoming.

                            After being mostly unconscious for 4 days... "randos on the internet" have actually supplied me with way better advice that my incompetent doctor.

                            I'm on top of this thing now, but I've seen behind the curtain, it's all a bunch of bull****. Total crap.

                            The hospital here WILL NOT treat covid. Nope, nada. You get tested, and if you're positive, any pre-existing health issues you had before get wiped out until you meet the CDC's definition of "probably not contagious".

                            There is no treatment... only money for testing.

                            I got authorized for the antibody infusion, but nobody could tell me if because of the rare-as-hell auto-immune disease that I have, whether or not it would put me at higher or lower risk. The doctors shrugged, read the screen, and said "I dunno", with the same level of attention to detail and excellence as the pierced nose girl who makes my coffee at Starbucks. Sorry, this damn disease almost killed me a few months ago, so I'm not taking any chances with "Um.. I Dunno".

                            It's all Crap!!

                              Most pharmacies will not fill such a prescription if they see 'covid' or 'ivermectin.'

                              Just like most doctors won't treat covid either, with any means whatsoever. Government doesn't have any approved treatment other than taking Remdesivir, which will likely kill you first via kidney failure. You must find a doc that isn't afraid to think outside the box, the most famous ones have been slandered online (eg. Zelenko)

                              Go ahead, ask the CGN nurses on this board if this is true. They'll twist themselves into a pretzel while avoiding the question Pages and pages of non-responses.
