[QUOTE="LucySW, post: 2234123, member: 113749"] I’ve been following this question too. There is some evidence but it’s not clear yet. The mechanism would be that these drugs substantially increase ACE-2 receptors, which are what the virus latches onto. So would boost the viral load. This will become clearer. In the mean time, if I were talking these drugs (my husband is), I would call my doctor & ask for guidance. I don’t think bc we can possibly decide about medication of our own bat. We need. medical guidance. BUT deciding not to use ibuprofen is a different matter. We can & I think should decide not to use that for ourselves. See Google, passim. PS: I’m not a medical person. OTOH I have been following the medical papers. [/QUOTE]
