Not sure about ivermectin specifically but I would call Dr. Lozano, who has a COVID clinic in Dallas or Dr. Rev, Louis Coates. They will both treat you.

Dang. Sorry. Wrong thread.

Can you give more detail on what you mean by RX? I'm looking on their website. What prescriptions do I want to request?

Results: In 28 days of follow-up, significant protection of ivermectin preventing the infection from SARS-CoV-2 was observed: 1.8% compared to those who did not take it (6.6%; p-value = 0.006), with a risk reduction of 74% (HR 0.26, 95% CI [0.10,0.71]). Conclusions: These results suggest that compassionate use of weekly ivermectin could be an option as a preventive method in healthcare workers and as an adjunct to immunizations, while further well-designed randomized controlled trials are developed to facilitate scientific consensus.

Make sure to add in Vitamin C, D, and Zinc and don't just lay in bed if you can help it. Try to get out for walks but not overdo it. Getting ahead of the virus by building up your immune system is key. Iver has become extremely difficult and expensive to find since the FDA has decided to go Dallas Buyers Club on it. Very unfortunate because it's still the best thing for people vaxxed or not. It's not perfect but in proper dosage it greatly reduces your chances of the virus getting full blown. Taking it early is also key.

Monoclonal antibodies? That seems to have a higher likelihood of being an effective treatment...


Edit: Just realized how old this thread is. 10 days from symptom onset is the maximum for treatment from what I have read...
