Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I am in my mid-forties. I am having cold and throat infections for four to five days. I am having body pain and slight fatigue and weakness. I do not have fever now. Two days back, I had 100 F once or twice a day. I am having loose motions for two to three days. There is a slight cough. I usually get frequent colds and throat infections but this time, I tested positive for Omicron yesterday. I am enclosing my report here. I am very worried. I request you to suggest the best drugs to me.
I am taking the tablet Azithromycin 500 mg twice daily, the tablet Roxid 300 mg twice daily. For hypertension, I have been taking the tablet Telma 40 mg once daily, and for diabetes, the tablet Gluconorm 500 mg twice daily.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, you should definitely get CBC (complete blood count), CRP (C-reactive protein), D-dimer, and ferritin tests done.
We need to start the capsule Molnupiravir (anti-viral) along with current medicines.
Please let me know if you already got any blood tests done.
What about your oxygen saturation level?
Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
My oxygen saturation level is 99 %.
I will get the advised tests done later.
I request you to prescribe the dose and duration of the capsule Molnupiravir. I also request you to send a prescription as an attached file so that I can show it to buy the drugs at a pharmacy.
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
I can understand your concern.
Sorry to say but I cannot send the prescription in chat consultation. It is not allowed.
The dose of the capsule Molnupiravir is 200 mg four capsules twice a day for five days. A bottle of 40 capsules is available, and four capsules twice daily, eight capsules in a day for five days, total of 40 capsules. Please consult a local doctor before starting this medication.
