(102,236 posts)but really... He damn well better hope that there are not any disastrous findings from the several clinical trials underway looking into such prophylactic use. In those studies, they exclude anyone >50 years so a serious percentage of complications would be devastating to his decision to use in a 73 yo man with multiple risk factors. He has put both his reputation and his neck on the chopping block.

If he is taking it, maybe triple the dose just to make sure. We all know the indications and complications.

(3,607 posts)Friday that said researchers cut short a study testing chloroquine as a potential treatment for Covid-19 over safety concerns, citing a primary outcome of death. Nearly two dozen patients died and some developed irregular heart rates after taking doses of the drug daily."
We could get lucky.

(18,890 posts)Thousands of cured Covid patients are donating plasma. Where is it going? I know of a few rat studies that are very successful - but rats do not need much plasma in ratio to weight.
So WHERE is all the plasma that is being donated going?
My theory is that it is going to the 'Movers and Shakers' of the dystopian Party. That way their fear of this hideous virus can be reduced by knowing they are 80-95% protected, so long as they keep getting the antibodies in the plasma.
What other reason explains their cavalier and disturbing attitudes?

(1,671 posts)Hydroxychloroquine for lupus & rheumatoid arthritis:
For lupus or rheumatoid arthritis, take this medication by mouth as directed by your doctor, usually once or twice daily. Your doctor may gradually increase your dose. Once you have been taking the medication for a while and your condition has improved, your doctor may instruct you to lower your dose until you find the dose that works best with the fewest side effects.
Tell your doctor if your condition lasts or gets worse. It may take several weeks or months to see improvement if you are taking this for lupus or arthritis.
Side Effects
Tell your doctor right away if you have any serious side effects, including: slow heartbeat, symptoms of heart failure (such as shortness of breath, swelling ankles/feet, unusual tiredness, unusual/sudden weight gain), mental/mood changes (such as anxiety, depression, rare thoughts of suicide, hallucinations), hearing changes (such as ringing in the ears, hearing loss), easy bruising/bleeding, signs of infection (such as sore throat that doesn't go away, fever), signs of liver disease (such as severe stomach/abdominal pain, yellowing eyes/skin, dark urine), muscle weakness, unwanted/uncontrolled movements (including tongue/face twitching), hair loss, hair/skin color changes.
