The side effects for taking 400 mg twice a day for 5 days are complete BS; tens of millions have taken more and for longer for malaria since the mid-1950’s, and at least hundreds of thousands of Lupus and RA victims have been taking it for years or decades. My own mother has been on it for 5 years while having cardiac affib as a pre-existing condition- with NO side effects at all.
If hydroxychloroquine was dangerous, we would have found out 50 years ago and it wouldn’t be on the market.
You're confusing HCQ with the antibiotic azithromycin that can cause heart arrhythmia that can cause heart attack.
Read my post above about a New York Doctor using doxycycline instead of Z-pac with great success and NO heart complications.
Doxycycline is a tetracycline antibiotic that fights bacteria in the body. Doxycycline is used to treat many different bacterial infections, such as acne, urinary tract infections, intestinal infections, respiratory infections, eye infections, gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, periodontitis (gum disease), and others.
All I’m saying is that side effects are the current excuse.
