Ivermectin is optional for patients who are mildly symptomatic at home.
Prophylaxis
While there is very limited data (and none specific for COVID-19), the following “cocktail” may
have a role in the prevention/mitigation of COVID-19 disease.
■ Vitamin C 500 mg BID and Quercetin 250-500 mg BID
■ Zinc 75-100 mg/day
■ Melatonin (slow release): Begin with 0.3mg and increase as tolerated to 2 mg
at night
■ Vitamin D3 1000-4000 u/day
Mildly Symptomatic patients (at home):
■ Vitamin C 500mg BID and Quercetin 250-500 mg BID
■ Zinc 75-100 mg/day
■ Melatonin 6-12 mg at night (the optimal dose is unknown)
■ Vitamin D3 2000-4000 u/day
■ Optional: Hydroxychloroquine 400mg BID day 1 followed by 200mg BID for
4 days
■ Optional: Ivermectin 150-200ug/kg (single dose)
■ Optional: ASA 81/325mg/day
In symptomatic patients, monitoring with home pulse oximetry is recommended.
Ambulatory desaturation below 94% should prompt hospital admission
Mildly Symptomatic patients (on floor):
■ Vitamin C 500 mg PO q 6 hourly and Quercetin 250-500 mg BID (if available)
■ Zinc 75-100 mg/day
■ Melatonin 6-12 mg at night (the optimal dose is unknown)
■ Vitamin D3 2000-4000 u/day
■ Enoxaparin 60 mg daily
■ Famotidine 40mg daily (20mg in renal impairment)
■ Methylprednisolone 40 mg q 12 hourly; increase to 80 mg q 12 if poor response
