CURRENT MORE EFFECTIVE TREATMENT FOR COVID-19

COVID-19: New findings.               The exigencies facing is such that all hands must now be on deck. The remoteness of my practice has made it difficult to share my findings with colleagues added to the timing for interventions but I am glad to announce to the world that we have another addition to the armamentorium against this ravaging agent.

My research led to the conclusion to the fact that baring the toxicity of chloroquine hydrosulphate, use of this drug for treatment of COVID-19 should cease forthwith. In its place should be instituted a more amenable drug with less side effect. I am talking of non other than Magnesium trisilicate.                   Mode of Action.  Magnesium trisilicate or Magnesium trisilicate when taken is absorbed all most into the system where it exerts it's mild adverse effect of alkalosis. All drugs have side effects. This mild alkalosis then leads to slight increase in plasma and body pH. This is same route, Chloroquine uses to fight the virus. The rise in pH then naturally kills the virus which cannot survive in raised pHs. Magnesium trisilicate comes in beautiful crested tablets which can be taken twice or thrice a day. I strongly recommend this harmless antacid to the world for prevention and treatment of COVID-19.                                        Dr. Ikechukwu Onyekwelonwu
