For prophylaxis, the medical school recommends vitamin C (500 mg) and quercetin (250 mg-500 mg twice a day) with zinc (75 mg-100 mg per day), melatonin (0.3 mg-2 mg) each night, and vitamin D3 (1,000-4,000 IU per day). Famotidine (20 mg-40 mg per day) may be added to the mix. For patients with mild symptoms, EVMS recommends the same combination, with optional additions of ivermectin (150 ug-200 ug per kg as a single dose), and one low-dose or regular aspirin per day.

What’s the thinking behind recommending these supplements and medications?

I’ve seen everything recommended in other posts, except the famotidine and melatonin.

Famotidine is prescription, where all the other items are OTC.

I’d go with the supplements, if someone can’t get HCQ.

zinc (75 mg-100 mg per day),

I wouldn’t want to take even 50mg of zinc for very long. That’s a pretty heavy dose. And I’d also want to pair it with some copper-dark chocolate is my preferred source. LOL
