What are the best drugs to treat Omicron?

Question

Hi doctor,

I am in my mid-forties. I have had a cold and throat infections for four to five days. I am having body pain, slight fatigue, and weakness. I do not have a fever now. Two days back, I had 100°F once or twice a day. I have been 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 for me.

I am taking the tablet Azithromycin 500 mg twice daily and 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.

Kindly help.

Answer 1

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 have already had any blood tests done.

What about your oxygen saturation level?

I hope this helps you.

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern.

Sorry to say, but I cannot send the prescription in a 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, for a total of 40 capsules. Please consult a local doctor before starting this medication.

Thank you.
