I’ve read Pepcid AC is a channel blocker and Claritin is another kind of channel blocker (for a different channel), and if you were taking both daily you’d reduce the number of places the spikes can attach, thereby giving the body a chance to clear spike proteins without the damage that can result if they attach. (or was it the virus itself has fewer attachments?)
I’m sorry I can’t recall for sure if it’s spike or viruses which have a harder time attaching, but I’ve seen claims these two different OTC meds help with Covid for about a year now.
You were obviously keeping up in class whilst I napped. hahaha
Sincerely, thank you for the information and your time.
Where are all the $hot $hill$ to discredit this?
From what I have read the famotidine(pepcid) is a histamine 2(h2) receptor blocker, but by blocking h2 activation,the virus is less able to enter cells. The h2 inhibition prevents biological channel from letting the virus in. The famotidine does not directly inhibit the channel. from what I read.The dose used in the study was about 80mg 3 times a day. Most pepcid doses for gi work is 40mg per day..higher doses may be used in hypersecretory conditions. 240mg is a high dose. The pepcid was used to decrease inflammatory symptoms from covid but was not tested for clearing of the virus.
Loratidine is a histamine 1 receptor blocker.
Histamine 1 initiates inflammatory actions. So Claritin used for suppressing that. H2 blockers used for suppressing GI acid secretion.
