Not according to a rheumatologist who has more than 2000 Lupus patients under his care and has been in practice for 42 years at Cedar-Sinai.
He sent correspondence to the FDA stating unequivocally, that not a single one of his THOUSANDS of patients who have been taking the drug daily for many, many years has ever exhibited and deleterious side effects. Ever. Furthermore, he stated that not one of his thousands of patients has come down with the Wuhan Virus.
He stated that if there is any heart-related issue it is likely with the Z-Pack with certain patients.
He further backed up the combination of HCQ with high dosage Zinc supplement as a likely efficacious combination.
This doctor’s statement has been discussed on numerous radio and TV shows but has not gotten ANY COVERAGE AT ALL by the MSM or, a single Leftist talk show.
As someone who has suffered two heart attacks, I’d opt for sudden cardiac arrest over slow, torturous suffocation any day.
Ho hum...This was an already identified side effect.
Fear mongering. A fair number of drugs have the potential to affect the QT interval. And this can be a potential problem in patients with certain conditions especially when more than one such drug is being taken. But that’s not a reason to think of the drug as generally unsafe. Heck, over 50 million z-paks are prescribed every year for Pete’s sake and that’s a macrolide and thus a QT prolonger, but that isn’t stopping it from being prescribed like candy.
Oh my God!! One patient may have had an adverse reaction!!! What a bunch of drama queens at Newsweek!!
My son has taken Plaquenil twice a day for years for his RA, without any side effects.
Newsweak gives us a headline about stopping the treatment for ONE patient.
Headline should read:
FRENCH HOSPITAL MONITORING THE MEDICINES THEY PRESCRIBE AND APPROPRIATELY TAKING STEPS TO PREVENT SIDE EFFECTS
On ONE patient. Stop the presses...
Someone connected to Newsweek must have a lot of money invested in a new vaccine.
IT’S A FAKE HEADLINE - the article does not say what the headline says.
Give us a link!
The Gilead compound has liver tox issues.
Decisions...decisions...
WHY ARE THE ARTICLES YOU POST IN CAPS? WHY DON’T YOU TAKE FIVE MINUTES TO TYPE IT OUT IF THE ARTICLE IS IN CAPS. IT’S OBNOXIOUS ON THE FRONT PAGE TO SEE YOUR LONG ASS TITLES ALL IN CAPS.
Thank you.
Thanks, I’ll try to retype it next time. Newsweek ALWAYS have their articles in ALL CAPS and all I do is copy and paste.
The communists/globalists have bought and paid for this virus, and darn it, they want to get their full money’s worth out of it! Now quit talking about treatments & cures and start talking about doom, gloom & death like good little “unwashed masses”.
Bullcrap. There are suddenly people everywhere telling us how deadly this 60 year old drug is. This is just anti-Trump resistance.
Newsweak currently has three panic articles regarding the prescription of hydroxychloroquine. They are trying to re-establish themselves in the fake news market.
the doc on fox who has been treating patients- many many patients, for decades now- has never experienced anyone that fell into the danger category- even pregnant women can take this drug-
he said the guideline SUGGESTION is to make sure the patient doesn’t have heart issues before giving it but stated that this was just a suggestion, and the risk was so small that they don’t even bother checking folks- the risk is practically non existent
The msm resistance to this drug is truly Satanic! They oppose it only because President Trump suggested it’s use- They would rather people drop dead i n the 10’s of 1000’s than to give President Trump and credit for anything
Now- had obama mentioned using it if it had happened under his term- the msm would be singing it;s praises all day long and suing any governors that refused it’s usage- or limited it in any way-
