Elaborating on the effective methods being followed for treating COVID-19 across the globe, Shashikanth Manikappa, a specialist cardiac anaesthetist working at Monash Health in Melbourne, Australia, has strongly advised what he termed Quadruple Therapy involving four medicines Ivermectin, Doxycycline, Zinc and Vitamin D3 as a preventive as well as treating method.
Addressing a media conference in Kalaburagi on Monday, the senior doctor said that the use of Ivermectin would be more effective than that of Hydroxychloroquine which was widely being used worldwide, right from the outbreak of the pandemic.
Referring to a pre-official release of a randomised controlled trial using Ivermectin in three doses in primary contacts of COVID-19, Dr. Manikappa said that 93 % of primary contacts who received Ivermectin did not develop any symptoms and 58 % of primary contacts who did not receive Ivermectin did progress to have symptoms of the pandemic.
Quadruple Therapy includes Ivermectin 12 mg one dose, Doxycycline 100 mg once a day for four days, Zinc 50 mg once a day for four days and Vitamin D3 once a week. Ivermectin, Doxycycline and Zinc are to be repeated every 14 days and Vitamin D3 every week with blood levels monitored. The synergistic effect of these medicine acts to prevent viral multiplication and also stop the virus from entering human cells. Thomas Borody, an Australian gastroenterologist who is known for curing peptic ulcers with triple antibiotic therapy, has revealed that one block in South America that received Ivermectin combination prophylaxis did not contract coronavirus infection while others did, he said.
On the side effects, Dr. Manikappa said that Ivermectin was being used in 3.7 billion people for intestinal parasites and was found to be safe. These are not new medicine. They are already in use for treating different ailments and are found to be safe. They can be prescribed by any doctor to control the pandemic, he said.
Asked about the statutory guidelines for the use of these medicine, Dr. Manikappa said that the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) had, though late, come up with new guidelines recommending Ivermectin.
District Kannada Vaidya Sahitya Parishat president S.S. Gubb and joint secretary Shashishekhar Reddy were present.
Ping as per your request
It sounds like there are many working therapies for covid. It seems oddly familiar as to why certain people are avoiding them like the plague. Covid is a political disease.
hcq was also a well established known medicine regarded as safe
didn’t stop fauci and others denigrating it and sayingnit wasnt safe
its about the money
and its about controlling citizens
This is probably a more refined therapy than HCQ. What I think makes this a little better is that the Ivermectin is an actual antibiotic (and therefore it wouldn’t be a stretch to see it as an antiviral) whereas HCQ is not.
I think this has real potential as a treatment, and seeing that one of the resident bullies is already on this thread, I will simply point out that treatment is but one leg of disease management. Her immunity and prophylaxis being the others. While I am encouraged as to the potential efficacy of this treatment, I am also encouraged as to the standard vaccine tech that is being studied as well as what appears to be regional herd immunity developing.
Political disease. Bingo.
I doubt you because it simply is not true, but go ahead and keep advancing untruths
Back inside your quarantine, kiddies. You know Papa Fauci has said you won’t be allowed outside until EVERYONE has been registered and has taken the RUSHED VACCINE (with a second booster shot).
I dont believe Ivermectin is an antibiotic.
It is — its an antiparasitic. Works by incasing membrane permeability on the parasite. So I suppose using the term antimicrobial is loose.
Right on time with the conspiracy nonsense.
Why are zinc and D3 not administered daily? Seems strange to have zinc administered only every two weeks and D3 administered only weekly.
Rather a politicized disease.
1. It’s about getting Trump
2. its about the money
3. its about controlling citizens
The blood concentration of Vitamins D is to be monitored on this protocol, so the best MIC is known for Vit D recommendations. Same for zinc — its just getting the level.
But weekly and bi-weekly? Not daily?
The half lives of a lot of these things is pretty long — so it doesnt really surprise me. I must admit prior to CoVID, I was not up on vitamins and recommended doses. So this protocol states one should have levels followed. This is a very data driven approach to this protocol
Ivermectin, zinc and doxy has been a treatment for new, strange diseases since the mid 90s. Was not a treatment prescribed by doctors but was developed and tried by sufferers in conjunction with college biology professors. Funny how the same treatment for covid and morgellons both diseases with no recognized treatment by cdc and nih.
With the long half-life and infrequent administration, you would have a sequence of exponential decays resulting in varying concentrations in the body. Wouldn’t it make more sense to reduce dosage, administer daily and maintain a more constant concentration in the body?
