From my understanding i dont think it kills the virus itself off faster but controls complications of it very well so ur chances of gettinf seriously ill from covid is reduced Someone correct me if im wrong tho. Article doesnt go super deep into it so im not 100% sure Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gypsy18 88 Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Colchicine is the 2nd line treatment for gout. Very interesting article and if you look at the study itself it does look promising. Does not cure Covid but seems like a good option to prevent/reduce complications from the virus! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chic 20,830 Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 What interests me most about this, is the idea that a medication that can fight the virus presents an isolated set of variables that can help narrow down exactly what helps against the virus. If this medication has a certain component that separates it from medications that don’t work against COVID, it can be analyzed in more detail and give greater hints as to the best possible cocktail to combat the virus.
