Since the advent of the COVID 19 pandemic, I have been taking some supplements as prescribed by friends to ward off the infection. Some of these supplements include, Tumeric, Ginger, Garlic, Scent Leaves and Oregano among others. What I want now are the real drugs to fight the infection in case I catch it. People have mentioned Chloroquine, Amoxycillin, Mectizan among others. Kindly advise me on the best drugs to use.

While it may be okay to take supplements in moderation to keep up your resistance, self- medication in the case of suspected COVID 19 infection can be very dangerous and may cause death. Treatment of COVID-19 should be under strict medical supervision. Instead of getting worried about catching the infection, wearing a mask, frequent hand washing as well physical distancing should be your priorities.
