I’m allergic to mill. If I took this it would probably just make me fart more. That would help keep people away from me.

[Jewbacca]

This is a bit stronger. It’s the antacid

I read the abstract, I remember the ration was 40 of the drug to 400 of the lacto....so I guess 1/10

“Dyphenhydramine is something I have been using for yrs as a sleep aid”

Is it sold under another name, or is that the name on the bottle?

Hubby takes melatonin, but I think that might be different.

Click for some info on various drugs

[FMBass]

Dyphenhydramine commonly called Benadryl.

[OneVike]

I still drink milk with every meal I eat.

I’m 65, and seldom if ever get sick

[traderrob6]

Interesting.

"And pharmacist move Benadryl behind the counter and interrogate you."

They try that and the allergy sufferers will lynch them. I buy Benadryl in bulk at Costco, because they are sometimes the only thing that will give me relief.

It is sold at Dollar General as “Nighttime.” 25 mg per capsule. 100 cost one dollar.

Or is it 1.25 now?

[MayflowerMadam]

Good to know. I have to go there today for something else, so will check it out. I won’t be surprised if the shelves will be empty since this news was released.

Any state that doesn’t have a carve-out for OTC meds. NYS, CA, GA for starters.

[Oorang]

Good to know, thanks nully.

Effects of fexofenadine, diphenhydramine, and alcohol on driving performance. A randomized, placebo-controlled trial in the Iowa driving simulator

[Tacrolimus1mg]

Maybe partially, because a lot of families now are not so dilligent with what their kids drink anymore (mine sure wasn’t), but they have fewer of the ACE2 receptor that the virus binds to.

[faucetman]

“Individually, the two compounds each inhibited SARS-CoV-2 virus replication by about 30%. Together, they reduced virus replication by 99%.”

Just imagine if we had proceeded at “Warp Speed” to find therapeutics for COVID instead of vaxxines?

Just imagine how many lives would have been saved, illnesses prevented, babies born ALIVE, our DNA in tact, our everyday lives changed (or should I say “UNCHANGED”).

PEOPLE NEED TO HANG! (Gulag them at the least)

The type of lactoferrin used in the research differs slightly from the type that is commonly available to consumers, he noted.

How is it different? Are the two not substitutable?

Why use a different lactoferrin? Is it a normal different one, or is there a particular reason to use that one and not the normal milk stuff?
