I'm seeing conflicting reports about whether u should or shouldn't take it but my advice is the same... talk to REAL medical professionals and do what they tell u. If they tell u it's cool, its cool.

My son's pediatrician told me over the phone to completely avoid ibuprofen for now because of all the unknowns and its not worth the risks.

And that sucks because Motrin is like a miracle drug for him, it literally cures anything that ails him in like 20 mins.

I've heard this, but from nowhere official yet. Do you got some official links on this, breh?

I've been seeing links that go both ways. I honestly think that because COVID-19 is so new, they dont fully understand it yet and what works and what doesn't. So just be careful and talk to your doctor first

Back when I was sick and went to the doctor two weeks ago, my doctor told me to take ibuprofen and Tylenol to their maximum doses for my unbreaking fever. Granted, I never got confirmed to have covid, due to lack of testing then and refusal of it unless lungs was fukked (only thing I didn't have and I had flu shot already, so he didn't test for that either). I must say, the combo did the trick and I started feeling better 24-48 hours later. I'm still coughing occasionally and it's almost always productive.

They are literally saying do not take ibuprofen!

OP, dont listen to coli mds. Do what the offline medical folks tell you to do and stay safe

Ignore ask your dr, idiot :mjlol:

And to speak on ibuprofen. They say some people should take it and others shouldn’t. So again. Ask your DR.

I had something similar back in February. Body pains, fever, hard to breathe. My girl had it too but more fever and less cough. It broke for us after about 48 hours. But my phlegm cough lasted about 2-3 weeks. Now the only time I cough is when my acid reflux is acting up. We basically self isolated for about a week. Not sure if it was COVID but from the symptoms I had it sounded a LOT like it.

I got asthma so i'm trying to be extra careful, I gotta re-up my rescue inhaler but other than that its Omeprozole for Acid reflux and anti-histamines because its STILL fukkING ALLERGY SEASON TOO.
