The Front Line Covid-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC) have published a supplement protocol for prevention and for the early phases of an infection based on the results of several small published clinical trials, known as the I-Mask+ Protocol. Consider these supplements from your pharmacist prior to or during the course of your recovery from COVID-19:
| SUPPLEMENT | DOSE |
| Vitamin D3 | 1000-3000IU per day |
| Vitamin C | up to 1000mg twice per day |
| Zinc | 50mg-100 per day |
| Melantonin | up 6mg at night – causes drowsiness |
| Quercetin | 250mg per day |
IVERMECTIN
The World Health Organisation (WHO), FDA, CDC and regulatory health authorities for counties such as Australia, New Zealand, Canada and most EU member states do not advocate the use of Ivermectin in the prevention and treatment of Covid-19. Exceptions have been made for its use in clinical trials.
This practice does not advocate the use of Ivermectin in the prevention and treatment of Covid-19.
