Long term effects? steroids in general aren’t great for you, but this should be short term enough that it won’t have lasting effects. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red 99,199 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 I am laughing so hard at the conspiracionists that kept saying the pharmaceutic industry was faking chroloquine's bad results to push an expensive drug when dexamethasone is much cheaper than chloroquine If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating.

That’s the thing It's available in practically ever pharmacy and it can only be used if you're hospitalised, otherwise there may not be much point. You'd literally only need it if you were on the verge of death, to reduce inflammation. I can't see them ever prescribing it for people to use at home for a current COVID infection Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a lot of drugs that become cheap that I'm sure they'd rather it not. My anti depressents are literally like 50 cents a pill. I'm sure they'd love to charge more but with the patent expired and generics available it's not so easy because any manufacturer can make it as long as they follow the formula and get approval for production.
