老川疗法中最值得一提的是：Famotidine （Pepcid），有效便宜的OTC；还有VD和锌。 随手可得，还不贵。买点备着，在家对付轻症。

那啥双抗、希望，咱老百姓高攀不起，可也不能自暴自弃。

 

Famotidine – an antacid that is sold under the name Pepcid

The drug famotidine has been studied for several months as a possible drug to use in COVID-19 treatment. The drug, a common one taken by thousands of people for heartburn, is generally safe and relatively inexpensive.

According to Science Magazine, The Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research, released a statement Friday citing evidence it was helpful for COVID-19. However, the statement also said, “We have yet to prove [famotidine’s] efficacy.” The institute says it’s “eagerly awaiting” FDA approval of a trial that will evaluate whether famotidine can help people who are not hospitalized.

Vitamin D – a vitamin

According to several studies, people who have low levels of vitamin D in their bodies have worse outcomes after they contract the COVID-19. It is not clear that adding vitamin D to a treatment course once a patient has been infected does any good.

It is better to make sure you are not deficient in vitamin D before you potentially get the virus.

Zinc – a mineral present in the human body

Data also suggests patients with low levels of zinc in their blood fare worse with COVID-19 than those with normal levels. But again, there is no evidence that supplementing with zinc improves COVID-19 outcomes.

自言自语：俺家没有Pepcid, 得赶紧去淘弄一盒存着。

小民惜命啊，得抓住每一根稻草。
