Dexamethasone is not a new drug Dexamethasone is used to treat conditions such as arthritis, blood, hormone and immune system disorder and used in treatment of certain cancers. It is also used as a test for an adrenal gland disorder drug .
This medication is a corticosteroid hormone (glucocorticoid). It decreases your body's natural defensive response and reduces symptoms such as swelling and allergic-type reactions.
Recently there are reports that it stopped or cut COVID deaths. The report of its use has NOT been published yet. The scientific expert in the U.K. Patrick Vallance called the result “ tremendous news” Even the FDA said “ this is a positive finding.” I am still skeptical as I want the study to be published and I want to see the data. There were drugs at the beginning of the pandemic that were touted ‘ cures’ or the “ best’ Some of these were in spoken by the covert narcissist in the White House.
This study has a good patient study population of more than 2,000 patient each receiving 6 mg of Dexamethasone. It is the first drug to improve survival. I like the fact that this is an inexpensive drug that can be used. We will await the results
Until tomorrow…
