BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS


FIG. 1 illustrates an exemplary product of manufacture of the invention, an exemplary blister pack. As illustrated the “oseltamivir”, or yellow highlighted, section of the blister pack is intended to be taken by the a patient who may have been in contact with an individual infected with Coronavirus, such as an individual having a history of meeting or coming into contact with an infected person, or who may have been in contact with an individual already having a fever and/or a symptom of a respiratory illness such as cough or shortness of breath, but the patient as yet has not received the results of a blood test (or any diagnostic test) for Coronavirus. The patient given the exemplary blister pack, and while waiting for his or her test result immediately begins taking a high dose 5 times daily of oseltamivir (which should have few adverse effects on the patient), which should begin slowing the spread and/or replication of the virus in the patient (assuming the patient is in fact infected). As soon as the patient if confirmed by a blood test (or any diagnostic test) to be infected with Coronavirus, or after five days on treatment with oseltamivir, the patient immediately moves on to the next part (section) of the blister pack, which in alternative embodiment has three or more drugs, for example: lopinavir, ritonavir and oseltamivir; lopinavir combined (formulated) with ritonavir, or lopinavir and ritonavir separately formulated; lopinavir combined (formulated) with ritonavir, and oseltamivir; lopinavir and oseltamivir; ritonavir and oseltamivir; oseltamivir and remdesivir, and the like as provided herein. A doctor can decide the frequency of dosing based on the clinical presentation of the patient and test results. If the blood (or other) test is negative for coronavirus, the patient may return the blister pack or keep it (or keep taking the oseltamivir, until a second 2nd test (which can be the same or a different test) is also negative.

In alternative embodiments, one, several or all of these are concomitantly used in medications, for example, one, several or all of these can also be used in (formulated with) a drug composition or formulation or product of manufacture as provided herein, or can be used or administered separately, alone or altogether, depending on the severity of the patient's illness.


In alternative embodiments, individuals or patients to whom a drug combination or composition or formulation as provided herein can be: (1) individuals or patients having been in contact with an infected person but are asymptomatic, or (2) individuals or patients that have been diagnosed by a blood test (i.e., are positive for virus) but are asymptomatic, or (3) individuals or patients that are symptomatic, for example, that have fever, sore throat, cough, chest pain, dyspnea and/or diarrhea, or are severely ill with high fever, aches and pains, unable to breathe to walk and/or barely maintaining consciousness.


In alternative embodiments, a drug combination or composition or formulation as provided herein is administered prophylactically, for example, to individuals who should or want to take the medication with them when travelling to prevent falling ill, for example, to prevent acquiring the infection when away from their doctor, country, or language.


In alternative embodiments, a drug combination or composition or formulation as provided herein is packaged and/or administered as a product of manufacture such as a blister pack or equivalent. In alternative embodiments, the blister pack or equivalent is designed to cover various stages of the infection, or to be for prophylactic purposes.


Alternatively the compounds may be solubilized, and then filtered with 22 micron filters or equivalents, suspended in a sterile fashion in saline or water or equivalents and administered intravenously, for example, in emergencies.


In alternative embodiments, methods comprise formulating and/or administering chloroquine (optionally, ARALEN™), chloroquine phosphate, chloroquine diphosphate, hydroxychloroquine (optionally, PLAQUENIL™) intravenously at about 300 mg, or between about 50 mg and 500 mg, in single dosages, or the equivalent thereof as an infusion.


In alternative embodiments, methods comprise formulating and/or administering chloroquine (optionally, ARALEN™), chloroquine phosphate, chloroquine diphosphate, hydroxychloroquine (optionally, PLAQUENIL™) at about 2.5 mg/kg intramuscularly (IM) at e.g., 0, 1, 12, 23, 24 and 25 hours, or e.g., at one or multiple dosages for between about one to two days or one day to two weeks.


In alternative embodiments, methods comprise formulating and/or administering chloroquine (optionally, ARALEN™), chloroquine phosphate, chloroquine diphosphate, hydroxychloroquine (optionally, PLAQUENIL™) at about 5 mg/kg subcutaneously (SC), for example, at 0, 12 and 24 hours, or for example, at one or multiple dosages for between about one to two days or one day to two weeks.


In alternative embodiments, oral administration of chloroquine (optionally, ARALEN™) chloroquine phosphate, chloroquine diphosphate, hydroxychloroquine (optionally, PLAQUENIL™) follows or complements (for example, is delivered together with) the IM or SC administration, or with the aerosol spray, mist, or powder administration of chloroquine (optionally, ARALEN™) chloroquine phosphate, chloroquine diphosphate, hydroxychloroquine (optionally, PLAQUENIL™), for example, as described below. In alternative embodiments, oral administration is dosaged at about 5 mg/kg, for example, for between about 12 and 72 hours (h), or for between about 36 and 48 h.


In alternative embodiments, methods comprise first administering (alone) for about 7 days (or 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7 or more days) oseltamivir (or TAMIFLU™) at 3 times per day (tid) (or alternatively twice a day (bid) or four times a day or more), followed by a blood sample to be taken for virus testing; this initial administration dampens or slows a possible virus infection developing in the individual, so possibly ending up with a milder disease course, for example, where the side effects would be milder.


If and when virus blood positivity is confirmed, or viral infection is otherwise confirmed, the osteltamivir is supplemented by the lopinavir and ritonavir (which can be administered together or separately) three times daily (tid) (or alternatively twice a day (bid) or four times a day or more), while continuing the osteltamivir, for example, all three medications three (or two or four or more) times daily or 9 (or more) medications daily.


In alternative embodiments, the duration of the combined drug therapy as provided herein is 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10 or more days, which can be prolonged in those whose blood coronavirus remains positive longer with daily blood tests (or equivalent tests to confirm continued active infection), until the infection is shown to be gone or substantially diminished, particularly when the patient has symptomatically otherwise substantially recovered.


In alternative embodiments, other anti-coronavirus medications for example, listed above (optionally, molnupiravir, efavirenz (optionally, SUSTIVA™), nevirapine (or the combination efavirenz with emtricitabine and tenofovir, or ATRIPLA™), amprenavir (optionally, AGENERASE™), nelfinavir (optionally, VIRACEPT™) and/or remdesivir (optionally, GS-5734™, Gilead Sciences)) are added or mixed into the ‘cocktail’, for example, are mixed into osteltamivir, lopinavir and/or ritonavir formulations or one, several or all are administered separately.

In alternative embodiments, an individual (for example, a patient) is given one, several or all of these medications (as provided in drug combinations or formulations as provided herein or used in methods as provided herein) in the form of a tablet, a capsule, a liquid, a spray, a powder, via an enema, as a suppository, administered subcutaneously or intravenously where available. When the patient is on a life support system the drug combination can be given parenterally.


Products of Manufacture and Kits

Provided are products of manufacture and kits for practicing methods as provided herein; and optionally, products of manufacture and kits can further comprise instructions for practicing methods as provided herein.


Provided are compositions, including preparations, formulations and/or kits, comprising combinations of ingredients, for example, therapeutic combinations as described herein. In alternative embodiments, therapeutic combination can be mixed and administered together, or alternatively, they can be an individual member of a packaged combination of ingredients, for example, a liquid component and a solid product component manufactured in a separate compartment, package, kit or container; for example, where all or a subset of the combinations of ingredients are manufactured in a separate compartment, package or container. In alternative aspects, the package, kit or container comprises a blister package, a clamshell, a tray, a shrink wrap and the like.


In one aspect, the package, kit or container comprises a “blister package” (also called a blister pack, or bubble pack). In one aspect, the blister package is made up of two separate elements: a transparent plastic cavity shaped to the product and its blister board backing. These two elements are then joined together with a heat sealing process which allows the product to be hung or displayed. Exemplary types of “blister packages” include: Face seal blister packages, gang run blister packages, mock blister packages, interactive blister packages, slide blister packages.


Blister packs, clamshells or trays are forms of packaging used for goods; thus, provided are for blister packs, clamshells or trays comprising a drug combination or formulation as provided herein, or a drug combination, pharmaceutical preparations or pharmaceutical compositions used to practice methods as provided herein. Blister packs, clamshells or trays can be designed to be non-reclosable, so consumers can tell if a package has already opened. They are used to package for sale goods where product tampering is a consideration, such as the pharmaceuticals as provided herein. In one aspect, a blister pack comprises a moulded PVC base, with raised areas (the “blisters”) to contain the tablets, pills, etc. comprising the combinations of drugs drug combination, or formulations, pharmaceutical preparations or pharmaceutical compositions used in methods as provided herein, covered by a foil laminate. Tablets, pills, etc. can be removed from the pack either by peeling the foil back or by pushing the blister to force the tablet to break the foil. In one aspect, a specialized form of a blister pack is a strip pack. In one aspect, in the United Kingdom, blister packs adhere to British Standard 8404.


In one embodiment, provided is a method of packaging wherein the compositions comprising combinations of ingredients are contained in-between a card and a clear PVC. The PVC can be transparent so the item (pill, tablet, geltab, etc.) can be seen and examined easily; and in one aspect, can be vacuum-formed around a mould so it can contain the item snugly and have room to be opened upon purchase. In one aspect, the card is brightly colored and designed depending on the item (pill, tablet, geltab, etc.) inside, and the PVC is affixed to the card using pre-formed tabs where the adhesive is placed. The adhesive can be strong enough so that the pack may hang on a peg, but weak enough so that this way one can tear open the join and access the item. Sometimes with large items or multiple enclosed pills, tablets, geltabs, etc., the card has a perforated window for access. In one aspect, more secure blister packs, for example, for items such as pills, tablets, geltabs, etc. are used, and they can comprise of two vacuum-formed PVC sheets meshed together at the edges, with the informative card inside. These can be hard to open by hand, so a pair of scissors or a sharp knife may be required to open.


In one aspect, blister packaging comprises at least two or three or more components: a thermoformed “blister” which houses multi-ingredient combination as provided herein, and then a “blister card” that is a printed card with an adhesive coating on the front surface. During the assembly process, the blister component, which is most commonly made out of PVC, is attached to the blister card using a blister machine. This machine introduces heat to the flange area of the blister which activates the glue on the card in that specific area and ultimately secures the PVG blister to the printed blister card. The thermoformed PVG blister and the printed blister card can be as small or as large as you would like, but there are limitations and cost considerations in going to an oversized blister card. Conventional blister packs can also be sealed (for example, using an AERGO 8 DUO™, SCA Consumer Packaging, Inc., DeKalb Ill.) using regular heat seal tooling. This alternative aspect, using heat seal tooling, can seal common types of thermoformed packaging.


In alternative embodiments, therapeutic combinations and formulations drug combination, or pharmaceutical preparations or pharmaceutical compositions used in methods drug combination, are formulated, for example, as a powder, for example, as lyophilised material, for example, a lyophilized encapsulated product, for example, for practicing methods as provided herein, can be packaged alone or in combinations, for example, as “blister packages” or as a plurality of packettes, including as lidded blister packages, lidded blister or blister card or packets or packettes, or a shrink wrap.


In alternative embodiments, laminated aluminium foil blister packs are used, for example, for the preparation of therapeutic combinations or formulations as provided herein, or for pharmaceutical preparations or pharmaceutical compositions used in methods as provided herein. Products or kits comprise an aqueous solution(s) which are dispensed (for example, by measured dose) into containers. Trays can be freeze-dried to form tablets which take the shape of the blister pockets. The alufoil laminate of both the tray and lid fully protects any highly hygroscopic and/or sensitive individual doses. In one aspect, the pack incorporates a child-proof peel open security laminate. In one aspect, the system give tablets an identification mark by embossing a design into the alufoil pocket that is taken up by the tablets when they change from aqueous to solid state. In one aspect, individual ‘push-through’ blister packs/packettes are used, for example, using hard temper aluminium (for example, alufoil) lidding material. In one aspect, hermetically-sealed high barrier aluminium (for example, alufoil) laminates are used. In one aspect, products of manufacture include kits or blister packs, use foil laminations and strip packs, stick packs, sachets and pouches, peelable and non-peelable laminations combining foil, paper, or film for high barrier packaging.


In alternative embodiments, multi-component products of manufacture, including kits or blister packs as provided herein, include memory aids to help remind patients when and how to take the therapeutic combination. This safeguards the therapeutic combination's efficacy by protecting each tablet, geltab or pill until it's taken; gives the product or kit portability, makes it easy to take a dose anytime or anywhere.


Dosaging and Packaging for Therapeutic or Prophylactic Purposes

In alternative embodiments, provided are drug combinations and drug delivery devices comprising these combinations for therapeutic and/or prophylactic (prevention) purposes.


In alternative embodiments, a therapeutic or a prophylactic drug or ingredient combination “package”, which can be a blister pack, clamshell, or a nebulizer, inhaler, respirator or CPAP insert, or the like, is designed such that a particular drug or ingredient combination (for example, a drug or ingredient combination have 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 ingredients or active agents, wherein one, several or all are separately formulated or formulated into one delivery agent such as a capsule or geltab, or nebulizer, inhaler, respirator or CPAP insert), to be taken by a user every day, every other day, every week, every two weeks or every 4 weeks (i.e., monthly).

QT Interval Monitoring

In alternative embodiments of methods as provided herein, for patients being administered drugs or drug combinations as provided herein, or patients treated with methods as provided herein, the patient's QT interval is intermittently (for example, tid, bid or daily) or continuously monitored for any possible abnormality, particularly for QT interval prolongation, and if a QT abnormality, for example, QT interval prolongation, is found, then the amount (dosage) or frequency of the drug or drugs (for example, azithromycin) being administered is decreased, temporarily halted, or completed stopped. This alternative embodiment particularly applies to patient being administered chloroquine (optionally, ARALEN™), chloroquine phosphate, chloroquine diphosphate or hydroxychloroquine (optionally, PLAQUENIL™) and azithromycin (optionally, ZITHROMAX™, or AZITHROCIN™, optionally an oral extended-release formulation of azithromycin, or ZMAX™).


The QT interval is a measurement made on an electrocardiogram used to assess electrical properties of the heart, and the QT interval is calculated as the time from the start of a Q wave to the end of a T wave, which is approximately the time lapsed from when cardiac ventricles start to contract to when they finish relaxing. An abnormally long or abnormally short QT interval is associated with an increased risk of developing abnormal heart rhythms and sudden cardiac death.


For example, considering that a normal adult QT has baseline average of 435±24 milliseconds (ms) to a maximal average value of 463±32 ms, and that a QT measurement of greater than 500 ms is a known marker of malignant arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death, drug treatment (for example, azithromycin administration) in patients monitored to have a QT interval of about 500 or more ms or greater will be immediately ceased, and drug treatment in patients monitored to have a QT interval of about 450 ms to 490 ms will be modified by decreasing the dosage of administered drug or drugs (for example, azithromycin) (for example, by about 50%), or halting drug administration until QT intervals return to baseline, or normal.


In alternative embodiments, chloroquine (or ARALEN™), chloroquine phosphate, chloroquine diphosphate and/or hydroxychloroquine (optionally, PLAQUENIL™) is administered the entire length of the treatment but the azithromycin (optionally, ZITHROMAX™, or AZITHROCIN™, optionally an oral extended-release formulation of azithromycin, or ZMAX™) administration is halted or ceased after two, three, four, five or six days after treatment is commenced to prevent or ameliorate QT prolongation (which generally becomes detectable by day 4 of the treatment), and optionally the azithromycin administration is replaced by a tetracycline class drug, wherein optionally the tetracycline class drug comprises doxycycline, or DORYX™ DOXYHEXA™, DOXYLIN™ administration; or, the chloroquine (or ARALEN™), chloroquine phosphate, chloroquine diphosphate and/or hydroxychloroquine is administered alone. In alternative embodiments, when azithromycin is ceased after the second, third, fourth, fifth or sixth day, the remaining drug treatment (optionally, chloroquine (or ARALEN™), chloroquine phosphate, chloroquine diphosphate and/or hydroxychloroquine is administered alone or with another antiviral antibiotic, optionally, a tetracycline class drug, and optionally the tetracycline class drug comprises doxycycline) the treatment can last as long as about 2 to three weeks, or for between about 20 to 50 days or more (or as long as the patient tests positive for virus).


In alternative embodiments, the azithromycin is administered at about 500 mg on day one of treatment followed by dose reduction to between about 200 to 300 mg, or 250 mg, for about 2, 3, 4 or 5 more days, after which azithromycin administration is ceased. In alternative embodiments of methods as provided herein, patients being administered drugs or drug combinations as provided herein, or patients treated with methods as provided herein, will be continuously monitored with a device capable of remote signaling to a health care provider, for example, by computer, phone or watch, any abnormal heart rhythm, for example, an abnormal QT interval. In alternative embodiments, the patient is connected to a device that reads and records the electrical impulses of the heart and transmits this information automatically to the patient and/or health care provider, for example, by way of the internet and wireless technology. In alternative embodiments, the device is an electrocardiogram electrocardiography (ECG) patch monitor, a Holter monitor, an implantable loop recorder, or wrist band device, a smart phone or smart watch. In alternative embodiments, the device comprises an ECG sensor and an computer program (or application or “app”) that includes an algorithm to detect atrial fibrillation and transmit and alert for its occurrence.


In alternative embodiments, the ECG patch monitor can be a ZIO™ patch, and can be an adhesive, single-lead ECG monitor that is applied to the left pectoral region, and can comprise a System on a Chip (SoC) that converts analog ECG signals to digital format, an accelerometer to assist with artifact removal, a low-power Blue Tooth low energy processor that transmits the data, and a lithium polymer battery.

EXAMPLES

The following examples demonstrate that methods, pharmaceutical compositions, therapeutic combinations and products of manufacture as provided are effective for treating, preventing, ameliorating, slowing the progress of, decreasing the severity of or preventing a coronavirus infection, or a COVID-19 (or so-called Wuhan coronavirus) infection, or an infection caused by a virus in the subfamily Orthocoronavirinae, or a virus in the family Coronaviridae, or a virus in the order Nidovirales.


Example 1: Exemplary Treatment Regimens

A 42 year (y) old female patient is first treated with osteltamivir (or TAMIFLU™) from the time she was in contact with a patient from China later found to be positive for a coronavirus, in particular, the COVID-19 virus (or so-called Wuhan coronavirus). She is treated for 4 days but then develops fever, cough, aches and some dyspnea, with blood result coming back positive for COVID-19 virus.


Because the patient remains positive for 2019-nCoV virus, treatment with lopinavir and ritonavir, or KALETRA™, ALTERA™, ALUVIA™, KALMELTREX, LOPIMUNE™ or LOPINAVIR™, is now added to the osteltamivir treatment, and within 48 hours her blood test becomes negative for the coronavirus.


This patient was quite ill reaching the dyspnoea phase and difficulty walking, and but for this new drug combination treatment would have been expected to die. The combination of drugs as provided herein can rapidly clear the coronavirus from the patient's blood, thereby terminating or significantly ameliorating an otherwise life-threatening illness.


Example 2: Exemplary Treatment Regimen

A 47-year-old male returning from a trip develops draggles and muscle pains and a temperature of 37.5 C. He is tested for coronavirus and is found positive for COVID-19 on a swab test. He is commenced on a combination of twice-daily chloroquine to 250 mg, lopinavir 200 mg bid, retinovir 50 mg bid. together with 75 mg bid oseltamivir (optionally, TAMIFLU™).


His condition is further resolved within three days and he is negative on the swab test on day six. Muscle pains also disappear and he feels well with and is able to be released to go home from hospital on day seven.


Example 3: Exemplary Treatment Regimen

A group of elderly travelers board a ship on a cruise, whereupon numerous individuals on the ship contract coronavirus COVID-19 on testing. This group is administered as a prophylactic therapy/treatment inhalant agents comprising two inhaled or aerosol doses, or twice daily, of 125 mg of chloroquine. None contract COVID-19 coronavirus and test negative for the virus upon arrival home after the cruise.


Example 4: Exemplary Treatment Regimen

A 65-year-old female patient develops a respiratory infection with shortness of breath, and is admitted to a hospital, and is tested positive for COVID-19 coronavirus. She is treated with intravenous (IV) remdesivir 10 mg per kilogram, chloroquine 250 mg twice daily, inhaled interferon, and Kaletra™ (a lopinavir/ritonavir combination) 50/200 mg.


Over the next week the patient's shortness of breath first worsens, but then improves, having fewer muscle aches and shortness of breath. By day 8 her viral detection is negative for COVID-19. The patient is discharged on day 12 fully cured of the coronavirus using this exemplary drug combination.


Example 5: Exemplary Treatment Regimen

Two Italian patients (one female, one male 69 years old with previous pulmonary disease) traveling in India tested positive for coronavirus COVID-19; they were administered lopinavir 200 mg twice daily, ritonavir 50 mg twice daily, chloroquine 250 mg twice daily, 75 mg oseltamivir (TAMIFLU™) twice daily, and the female patient tested negative after 7 days of this combined drug therapy, and the male patient showed significant improvement, with COVID-19 viral load diminished. No significant side effects from the administered drug combination were seen.


Example 6: Exemplary Treatment Regimen

A 32-year-old male patient acquires nose swab positive coronavirus COVID-19 infection, possibly at a party. Symptoms include loss of the sense of taste, muscle aches, fever of 38.9 C, sore throat cough and difficulty with breathing. He is seen by a COVID-19 specialist, who commences patient on a combination of opaganib or YELIVA™ tid at 200 mg or 300 mg per dose; hydroxychloroquine 200 mg twice daily; lopinavir 200 mg three times per day; ritonavir 50 mg three times per day, and oseltamivir 75 mg tid, where one, several or all of these drugs are administered orally, IM, IV and/or by inhalation individually or in combination (for example, as a single formulation where applicable). The patient progressively loses his fever, regains the sense of taste, and after further five days the cough and sore throat improve. Shortness of breath progressively improves but this requires more than 20 days (d) of continued treatment, yet the swabs are negative for COVID-19 on consecutive days by day 8.


Example 7: Exemplary Treatment Regimen

A 72-year-old gentleman with a chronic cough suddenly develops fever, worsening of cough and shortness of breath walking up hills. He goes to the emergency room but the antibiotic that is given does not stop the progression of the illness. He sees a specialist who deals with respiratory disease and is found to be positive for COVID-19. He is commenced on opaganib or YELIVA™ tid at 200 mg or 300 mg per dose; and hydroxychloroquine 200 mg tid. He continues on this therapy and notices improvement within two days; a swab is negative on day seven and he is completely asymptomatic by day 20.


Example 8: Exemplary Treatment Regimen

A 27-year-old female patient has a nose swab positive coronavirus COVID-19 infection. Symptoms include myalgia, sore throat cough and difficulty with breathing. She also complains of marked fatigue. The doctor commences her on a combination of hydroxychloroquine 200 mg twice daily (bid), lopinavir 200 mg three times per day (tid), ritonavir 50 mg tid, and oseltamivir 75 mg tid. The patient loses her fever after four days although the cough and sore throat continues for another two days. Shortness of breath progressively improves and after 12 days of treatment the swabs become negative on consecutive days.


Example 9: Exemplary Treatment Regimen

A 73-year-old male develops loss of sense of smell and taste, followed by muscle aches and pains fever of 38.5° C. cough and a sore throat. He then notices he was short of breath and saw his doctor. The doctor commences him on hydroxychloroquine 200 mg twice daily increasing after three days to 3 times daily, together with azithromycin 50 mg three times a day, and within three days the patient's fever improves, then disappears. The patient continues on this composition of the two drugs for a total of 12 days and subsequent swabs are negative for coronavirus COVID-19.


Example 10: Exemplary Treatment Regimen

A 49-year-old patient with nasopharyngeal swab proving an infection with coronavirus COVID-19, is treated to reduce symptoms using a combination of opaganib or YELIVA™ tid at 200 mg or 300 mg per dose, hydroxychloroquine 200 mg tid, azithromycin 50 mg bid. On day 4 of the treatment nasal swabs show an absence of the coronavirus, and this is also shown daily until day 14 showing a cure is achieved. The patient's symptoms abate fairly rapidly and he eventually becomes completely normal and asymptomatic.

Example 16

A 67-year-old gentleman with cough fevers muscle pain and oximetry of 95% (which fell from 97%) presents for treatment because of a swab-positive Covid 19 test. He is given colchicine (or COLCRYS™, or MITIGARE™) 0.5 mg dose daily for 14 days together with hydroxychloroquine (or PLAQUENIL™)) 200 mg twice daily. He is also given zinc, for example, zinc picolinate, 50 mg each day for the 14 days. No antibiotic is used. 2 days after commencing the treatment his oximetry shows him to be 96% and by day four return to 97%. The next 7 days his cough improves, fevers disappeared, but muscle aches and pains take somewhat longer to disappear.


In another example, the wife of an intensivist who was previously positive for Covid 19 starts developing symptoms of the infection herself, which may well have been acquired at home. Cough is her dominant symptom and she also loses her ability to taste and smell. Her oximeter reading remains at 96%, there having been no previous reading. She commences colchicine (or COLCRYS™, or MITIGARE™) 0.5 mg twice daily for 14 days together with ivermectin 6 mg twice daily for the 1st 5 days and thereafter 6 mg each morning. Her cough takes 2 weeks to reverse but she feels much better and more energetic within 5 days of treatment and her sense of smell and taste starts to return around the same time.


In another example, a 71 year male old patient had been taking colchicine 0.6 mg twice daily for a long-standing constipation; this treatment is a well proven and trialed therapy. He was also diabetic, hypertensive, and had mild congestive heart failure. He developed a flulike illness with cough, sore throat, muscle aches and pains, with later added fevers and ultimately he lost his sense of smell after about 4 or 5 days. Standard treatment for his cold did not improve the symptoms, and he underwent a swab test to look for Covid 19. This test turned out to be positive and the patient had added to his colchicine treatment comprising hydroxychloroquine 200 mg twice daily together with ivermectin 12 mg on day 1, 3, 6 and 8. At this stage his oximeter reading fell to 92% and he was quite dyspneic. In 2 days of commencing therapy noticed that his fever had gone but his cough continued. At this time zinc sulphate was added with 220 mg/day with azithromycin 250 mg each morning for 5 days. The patient experienced marked improvement with his oximeter reading rising to 95% and later to 97%. His ‘cold’ symptoms kept on improving with the cough resolved by day 14. His subsequent throat swab was negative.


In another example, a colchicine (or COLCRYS™, or MITIGARE™) as used in the above two examples is co-formulated or co-administered with hydroxychloroquine (optionally, PLAQUENIL™) and/or an avermectin class drug such as ivermectin (optionally STROMECTOL™), moxidectin (optionally CYDECTIN™, EQUEST™, QUEST™), selamectin (optionally STRONGHOLD™), a milbemycin (optionally milbemectin, milbemycin oxime, moxidectin or nemadectin), doramectin (optionally DECTOMAX™), eprinomectin or abamectin; and optionally colchicine (or COLCRYS™, or MITIGARE™) also is co-formulated or co-administered with zinc (Zn); vitamin (Vit) D3; and, vitamin C, or any combination thereof, for example colchicine (or COLCRYS™, or MITIGARE™) with or without hydroxychloroquine, Vitamin C, Vitamin D (optionally cholecalciferol, vitamin D3 or calcifediol) and/or Zinc.


Example 17

An elderly patient aged 74 was admitted to hospital because of shortness of breath. The oximeter reading was 91%. His daughter contacted the clinic to try and ask doctors in the hospital to treat the patient using hydroxychloroquine-based therapy. Because it took a long time to convince the prescribing physician in the hospital to start such treatment, the daughter was given the medication which she obtained from the local pharmacy. The patient was already being given intravenous remdesivir but had not responded to this. His new treatment was the continuation of remdesivir but hydroxychloroquine 200 mg twice daily (bid, or BD) was added to the treatment. He was also given azithromycin 250 mg each morning for the 1st 5 days and zinc sulphate 50 mg (base) daily for the entire 10 day treatment. His improvement was rapid and within the 1st 2 days his oximeter reading rose to 95%. The intravenous treatment was ceased he continued for the entire 10 days of hydroxychloroquine in sync with the 1st 5 days with azithromycin. His ECG monitoring showed no abnormalities. He was discharged home with an oximeter reading of 96%.


In another example, a performer aged 56 became infected at home from her infected family. Her illness was characterized by cold-like symptoms with cough, sneezing, fever, muscle aches, pains and the loss of the sense of smell. Her oximeter reading did not fall below 96% but she was nevertheless quite dyspnoeic at rest. Being allergic to azithromycin she was treated as the elderly patient aged 74, discussed above; however, hydroxychloroquine 200 mg twice daily (bid, or BD) but instead of azithromycin she was given doxycycline 100 mg twice daily gather with the zinc sulphate (50 mg daily). The entire treatment was continued for 10 days and by day 8 most of her Covid 19 symptoms disappeared. Her original throat swab was positive but later on by day 14 her Covid 19 swab was now negative.


In another example, two patients with positive throat swabs for Covid 19 were treated with hydroxychloroquine 200 mg twice daily and instead of azithromycin or doxycycline they were given clarithromycin 250 mg twice daily. The clarithromycin was continued for the full 10 days of treatment together with zinc sulphate 50 mg each morning. There were no ECG abnormalities. In addition to these medications the patient also had daily 5000 units of vitamin D3 as well as daily 1000 units of vitamin C throughout the therapy. They were both throat swab negative by day 12.


Example 18: Ivermectin-Containing Combinations

78 patients were treated with the singular 10 day protocol consisting of ivermectin 12 mg taken on day 1, 3 and 8. They were also treated with doxycycline 100 mg twice daily for the entire 10 day period. They were also treated with zinc sulphate 220 mg each morning combined with vitamin D3 5000 units and vitamin C 1000 units each taken in the morning. They were all swab Covid 19 positive for between 2 and 7 days before they were commenced on treatment.


Various Covid 19 symptoms were present in this cohort, and lowered oximeter readings were seen down to 86%, which progressively reverted to normality at various times during the treatment. All patients were cured of Covid 19 as determined by the swab test. Even those who were quite ill, breathless, severely fatigued, and had low oximeter readings. Some had external treatment using hydroxychloroquine alone. The addition of the ivermectin protocol as described above turned these patients around very quickly towards normality. 34 of these patients were wearing monitoring devices which were sending ECG traces back to base and none developed any abnormal arrhythmias while on the triple anti-Covid 19 protocol.


In another example, 288 patients were treated using a combination of hydroxychloroquine 200 mg twice a day for 10 days, with the 1′ 5 days on azithromycin 250 mg twice daily. In addition to these drugs they were also on treatment using daily both 5000 IU vitamin D3 and vitamin C 1000 mg. Each of these was taken daily for 10 days. The patients were naso-pharyngeal swab positive for Covid 19. They commenced treatment from between 2 and 9 days after initial diagnosis by swab. All had the classic symptoms of Covid 19 infection in various degrees of severity but none was admitted to hospital. The symptoms included fever, cough, muscular pains, breathlessness, fatigue, and in a small proportion of these patients there was loss of taste and loss of smell symptoms. Some also had diarrhoea.


About 6 of these patients reversed their infection as judged by a negative swab at 14 days although some had swabs done at between 10 to 14 days. 6 were deemed to have failed to be cured because they continued to be symptomatic and had a positive swab test. They were then treated with the ivermectin triple therapy (ivermectin 12 mg taken on day 1, 3 and 8; doxycycline 100 mg twice daily for a 10 day period; zinc sulphate 220 mg each morning combined with vitamin D3 5000 units and vitamin C 1000 units each taken in the morning) and recovered.


Example 19: Amantadine-Containing Combinations

A 65-year-old patient sought help because of his chronic cough over seven days, muscle aches and pains tiredness fevers and loss of sense of smell. He was commenced on amantadine 100 mg per day in the first two days and this was elevated to 100 mg twice daily for the next 10 days. He was also given colchicine 0.6 mg twice daily. On top of that he was also treated with oxygen therapy and vitamins D 5000 IU and Vitamin C 1 g/day. Under this treatment he improved in only three days and by day seven of the treatment in the longer had cough and muscle aches but was still better still very tired. He lost his cough at around day 14 and was able to return to work after three weeks.


Example 20: Cyclosporin-Containing Combinations

A 47-year-old female nurse who worked in intensive care developed symptoms of COVID-19 infection. She developed a skin rash runny nose muscle pains cough and ultimately some breathlessness. Her oximeter reading was 92 and she was advised to be hospitalised. She chose to be treated by combination of cyclosporine at a dose of 3 mg/kg (180 mg daily) together with 12 mg ivermectin once plus zinc 50 mg base and doxycycline 100 mg bid, all for 10 days. She began the treatment when her oximeter reading was 92% and within three days the oximeter rose to 95% by day seven rose to 97%. She had minimal side-effects of loose motions and some cramping but her nasopharyngeal swab was negative on day 12.
