Hi Frens,
My wife is currently experiencing severe wheezing, cough, and chest tightness. She has dealt with asthma her whole life, but I have NEVER seen it this bad in the 6 yrs. we have been together.
It is getting to the point where she is talking about going to the ER which I am trying to prevent for ALL the reasons we already know.
I had her on an ivermectin (horse paste), vit c, vit d, zinc and melatonin regimen for a couple of days and she seemed to be getting better. she is very skeptical of the horse paste so she stopped after a couple days after feeling better. today we wake up and it seems to be back with a vengeance.
I put her back on the paste, vitamin regimen this morning and told her we need to do this everyday for 5-7 days.
Any other tips or experiences would be greatly appreciated. The last thing I want is her to go to the ER and take some BS COOF test and then we all know how that can end up..........
This board is amazing with these kinds of things and any and all advice, tips, or experiences would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!
Thanks Frens squid
Iherb.com is where I buy most of my supplements. A quick search for NAC leads to these results:

I first learned about NAC from this study which thinks oxidative stress on the lungs is the main killer of Sars And NAC helps your body to produce glutathione which is your bodies own antioxidant which helps clear oxidative stresses or something like that.

A case report revealed the significance of NAC treatment for a patient with septic shock from an influenza (H1N1) infection. Together with oseltamivir, intravenous infusion of NAC at 100 mg/kg/day for 3 days rapidly improved the patient’s sepsis conditions with resolution of lung infiltrates. However, the patient relapsed after cessation of the NAC infusion. Then, reinstating the infusion of NAC at the same dose rapidly improved the patient’s conditions again, until the viruses were eventually eradicated, and the patient was discharged.42 This case suggests that high concentration and enough exposure time of NAC is the key to treat virus-caused critical conditions, including pneumonia-mediated sepsis.
Conclusions N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is inexpensive, has very low toxicity, has been FDA approved for many years, and has the potential to improve therapeutic strategies for COVID-19. NAC administered intravenously, orally, or inhaled, may suppress SARS-CoV-2 replication and may improve outcomes if used timely. Potential therapeutic benefits of NAC include, extracellularly scavenging ROS radicals, replenishing intracellular GSH, suppression of cytokine storm, and T cell protection, thus mitigating inflammation and tissue injury. NAC administration in combination with other antiviral agents may dramatically reduce hospital admission rate, mechanical ventilation and mortality.
