I will present 5 direct/indirect reports suggesting that Methylene Blue would be effective against the novel Coronavirus for all ages.
- To get started, I have been treating patients with SARS-1, TB, H1N1 and with exceptionally high success rate — the Methylene Blue treatment potentially also works against COVID-19. Details are covered in this blog https://medium.com/@dr.deepak.golwalkar/treatment-for-covid-19-using-methylene-blue-d23fc5a31a4d
India - The abstract of the paper claim that treating when blood samples with Methylene Blue, we get great results — not sure whether they did human trials https://www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-17718/v1
The comments in the paper are worth reading.
China - This was a cohort study on cancer patients
i.e. Methylene Blue(MB) is used as a dye(coloring agent) in many operations. Now, researchers found out that the 2500 cancer patients who were administered with Methylene Blue; none of them showed any symptoms of the Coronavirus as it could be possible that MB was doing it’s magic. https://riviste.fupress.net/index.php/subs/article/view/888
France - This is a couple of years old study: where they realized that MB is really effective against SARS-COV1 and MERS which has the same symptoms as SARS-COV2 or COVID-19 or the novel Coronavirus https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29732571/
Germany
I have been using MB to treat respiratory ailments and the above articles are proof that it works against Covid-19 and other ailments. Its a very cheap drug and its usage cannot be patented given its a generic. That is its strength and weakness.
Which hospital in Mumbai used the drug methylene blue and is there a clinical trial being done right now in mumbai regarding the use of methylene blue in the treatment of coivd ?
We have a lot of hospitals which are trying it in salvage cases (including Nanavati). Our only request is to start this earlier and not when a patient reaches a critical condition. MB is best effective when started with SpO2 > 93%; at lower oxygen levels other complications set in which may not be addressed by MB.
Can we use MB through nebulizer for covid patient on 7th day of onset as spo2 is at 94 -93 level? Course of Ramdesivir is completed.
If yes, what would be dose schedule – quantity and percentage of diluted solution ? Patient doesn’t have any comorbidites or no dyspnea after walking.Age of patient is 54, female.
So please guide me.
Dosage is as mentioned above. The sooner it is started the better it is. Sincere apologies, we have not been able to answer queries earlier.
