The number of COVID-19 patients has surged, and even vaccinated individuals are getting infected.
To prevent COVID-19 and alleviate symptoms, we recommend taking medicines like Echinacea and UDCA, as well as supplements like zinc and vitamins.
Fever and muscle pain can be relieved with antipyretics and analgesics, as well as combined herbal medicine prescriptions. For sore throat, anti-inflammatory analgesics, herbal medicine or troches, and sprays can be used to alleviate symptoms.
COVID-19 cases are surging.
It's a new variant, so even those who are vaccinated are getting infected ㅠㅠ
I'll briefly introduce some medications and supplements that can help prevent and alleviate COVID-19 symptoms.
Echinacea has been known for its effectiveness against colds and influenza even before COVID-19.
It's an ingredient that has been used to treat colds in Europe for a long time.
It's an "over-the-counter" medication that can be purchased without a prescription.
UDCA, known as a liver medicine, has been shown to be effective in preventing COVID-19 and suppressing severe progression (in a Nature paper, no less).
According to the research results, you need to take about 900mg per day, which is a significant amount.
You can take a 100mg general medicine product, or it's generally better to take a multivitamin containing vitamin B, zinc, vitamin D, etc., because it's more cost-effective and provides various benefits.
Generally, these are nutritional components that are effective for immune function, particularly in respiratory diseases.
In the case of zinc, taking it as a single agent is not cost-effective. Multivitamins usually contain 20mg or more, so I recommend supplementing with multivitamins.
Main symptoms of this COVID-19 wave: fever, muscle pain, sore throat
For fever and muscle pain, a combination of antipyretics/analgesics + Galgeuntang/Wontang
For sore throat/tonsillitis, a combination of NSAIDs + Eungyosan/Gupunghaedoktang
If severe, you can add troches (lozenge-type) or sprays.
I hope everyone prepares preventive medicines and symptom relievers in advance and safely overcomes this COVID-19 wave!!
