For COVID-19 "I started taking it on day 3 of Covid, I’m 45 years old. My first dose was at nighttime, and I saw the immediate effect the next day, barely coughing and mucus, but I felt awful. I felt lightheaded, a metallic taste in my mouth, and sleepiness all day."

For COVID-19 "It helped a lot, but oh my god, gas pain and stomach pain. 14 days after I finished the drug, I am still having these side effects. I am sure it has deterred my stomach chemistry. Hope it stops, can’t take the pain or smell. Sleepiness during the day and insomnia at night."

For COVID-19 "I’m a 50-year-old woman with POTS, EDS, and mast cell disorder. I got this med one day after I tested positive for COVID-19 (my second round). I started feeling better by the next day. I’ve had some minor side effects: diarrhea, headache, and sleepiness. I’ve actually slept better than I ever do, and my mental state is very positive. I’m on day 5 and have no COVID symptoms, I would take it again. No issues with mast cell reactions either."
