LOL-—they come out with a vague report about long covid and “viola” there’s a drug for that. This is all about money and control....period! And idiots are buying it up

There is that rumor but no current tested proof.


Two years ago, my allergist said to stop taking Benadryl (as a sleep aid) because of the study showing a link to dementia (due to it being anticholinergic). OTOH, a month ago my ENT said that the basis for that association is “very loose” and that consistent lack of sleep is much more likely to contribute to dementia than Benadryl.

So instead of using deadly Remdesivir at $4500 per dose and then putting someone on a ventilator and blowing out their lungs we could have just used Tylenol Cold & Flu to stop coof?

Good thing we had Gubbermint and Big Pharma looking out for us!

I purchased 2 600 unit bottles at Costco for about the same.

There is all kinds of correlational evidence for several classes of anticholinergics — dismiss it if you will with the “not causation” quip, but I will no longer take first-generation antihistamines or other drugs such as antidepressants with anticholinergic characteristics. Take a later antihistamine instead such as cetirizine — a physically larger molecule that doesn’t usually pass the blood-brain barrier — and see if it works for the long-covid mitigation.

It works for allergies and sleep issues; but I think it’s one of the antihistamines that raises blood pressure.

I read somewhere use both diphenhydramine and lactoferrin together in tandem to battle Covid.

Meant to say certain antidepressants such as tricyclics, not all ADs.

I thought that "long COVID" was mostly a result of Glutathione deficiency, which is allieved with NAC.

Happened to my next door neighbor lady, a few years back, in her late 50’s.

She fell in her livingroom and hit her head on the coffee
table.

She didn’t think much of it, got up and went about her usual business.

She passed out about an hour later with a busted blood vessel in the back of her neck.
Luckily her husband was just home from work and found her on the floor.

She had emergency surgery and recovered after a few weeks, but couldn’t walk for a long time................

thats interesting. do you know which part of the head she hit on the table? I recently hit my head and was very aware I needed to pay attention to any possible repurcussions...thinking of that actress who died skiing.

sounds like perhaps the back of the head is more vulnerable to a brain bleed. Of course any part of your head could do it if you hit it hard enough.

It was a game changer for me. If you get covid take it. Benadryl.
