Two Common Over-the-Counter Compounds Reduce COVID-19 Virus Replication by 99% in Early Testing

From SciTechDaily.com:

"While the findings are encouraging, Ostrov cautions against self-medicating with either diphenhydramine or lactoferrin as a COVID-19 prevention or treatment. The type of lactoferrin used in the research differs slightly from the type that is commonly available to consumers, he noted. Lactoferrin is commonly used as a supplement to treat stomach and intestinal ulcers, among other uses."

I reviewed the article quickly to try to determine the marketing name it would be quickly identified as on the shelves.

is it really just Benadryl?

Yes, Benadryl, but that dip… is sold under all sorts of brands as a sleep aid. I get mine on Amazon, their brand, super inexpensive.

Yep. Dirt cheap as a OTC generic. I use it as a sleep aid. It’s perfectly harmless.

It’s called BENA-MOOW. There will be a lot of guys lining up at the breast milk infusion center.

Benadryl will soon be labeled a dangerous drug given to rabid dogs to calm them down. Unfit for human use.

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

I wonder if they tried it with the OTC version of lactoferrin and it didn't work, or did they purposely use the research type because it costs more, is regulated, and on UFs investment portfolio? I don't take "expert's" pronouncements at face value anymore; what a shame.

"I’ll be damn, the Benadryl..."

I guess the CDC will demand that these two common OTC medications will now be held behind the pharmacist counter...and only given out with a doctor's note...

Not anymore. I'm surprised you've survived so long taking such a dangerous life threatening drug.

Wouldn’t it be safer to get lactoferrin from the source if available. Asking for a friend. I see a money making opportunity here for some enterprising young women.

It will be rejected. The BioPharma cartel is invested with mRNA and so is Fauci. They have their Luciferase tracking of the compliant so they don’t want ANY interference.
