Paxlovid warning

Just 10 months too late.

This stuff has been prescribed since it came out last December. Mostly to older people with heart or blood clot issues. Why are we just hearing about this warning?

“Paxlovid can cause serious health problems when coupled with common heart disease medication such as statins and blood thinners.

Researchers from Lahey Hospital and Medical Center, Harvard Medical School and other US institutions  found the Covid drug can increase the risk of developing blood clots when taken with blood thinners.

It can also cause an irregular heartbeat when combined with drugs for heart pain and when taken alongside statins it can be toxic to the liver.

Dozens of medications such as aspirin are safe to take with Paxlovid,  the researchers stress. But doctors need to be aware that other drugs can be dangerous and should be discontinued or adjusted while a patient is being treated for Covid.”
