Have a plan in place IN ADVANCE of COVID-19 infection, because time is of the essence. Discuss a plan of treatment with your doctor. There are several multi-drug treatment protocols detailed by highly successful front line treating physicians in this forum, to give you ideas to discuss with your doctor in formulating your plan. Also ideas for drugs as well as preventative nutraceuticals for prophylaxis to prepare your system to better deal with infection.
https://www.covid-19forum.org/index.php?board=10.0https://www.covid-19forum.org/index.php?board=3.0Also you may feel too ill to do anything once you become symptomatic. You certainly won't be going to the drug store. Yet you need to be receiving treatment within the first few days for antivirals to be most effective. Exactly contrary to the humane and ethical practice of medicine,
Anthony Fauci and his NIH's deadly absence of recommendations, are even contrary to the
Tamiflu label which reads: "Tamiflu is used to treat flu symptoms caused by influenza virus
in people have had symptoms for less than 2 days."
Investigate the highly successful early outpatient treatment protocols, as reported by front line treating physicians in the early treatment forum section, and decide on your preferences.
https://www.covid-19forum.org/index.php?board=3.0Contact your doctor and ask what outpatient treatments they have been prescribing for their COVID patients. If that doesn't align with what you have decided on, ask if they would prescribe the protocol you would like on your request. If he says something like "ivermectin is not approved for COVID", you can tell him that neither are other treatments that are currently in wide use for COVID. As of January 14th the FDA changed their guidelines for ivermectin to recommending neither for nor against, which is the same status that monoclonal antibodies and convalescent plasma therapy have, both of which expensive therapies are widely used even though they show little to no efficacy in trials.
If he says he practices within the NIH guidelines, run like a scalded dog and find another doctor, because even a year into this "pandemic" that never had to be, Fauci's current, deadly, NIH guidelines still basically make no recommendation until a person has to go on oxygen.
https://www.covid-19forum.org/index.php?topic=390.0If he says you have to test positive for COVID-19 before treatment, again run like a scalded dog and find another doctor, because he is apparently too ignorant to be aware of how unreliable PCR tests are (according to Johns Hopkins) and how safe early treatment medications are. Waiting for a positive test could make the difference between a normal life or death or permanent respiratory and other disability.
https://www.covid-19forum.org/index.php?topic=698.0If you can't find a doctor in your neighborhood that cares about his patient's lives and health you might try telemedicine.
This group tends more toward ivermectin protocols:
https://covid.us.org/2020/12/27/telemedicine-for-ivermectin-and-other-medications-for-covid-19/While this group mentions both hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin treatment protocols. There is also a reference to prescriptions for drugs to be taken as prophylaxis.
https://www.americasfrontlinedoctors.org/covid-19/how-do-i-get-covid-19-medicationAgain, the operators of this forum do not advise one way or the other. We are not doctors or health care professionals in any sense of the word. The purpose of this forum is to collect and post articles by front line treating physicians as well as world leading virologists, microbiologists and epidemiologists, so that you can read articles and advice from professionals who actually do care about their patients.
Just be sure to have a plan in place with your family so that precious hours aren't wasted searching for a doctor that is competent and compassionate that cares more about the lives of his patients than he does about practicing outside the "standard of care" - which is done all the time by dedicated, skilled clinicians - as well as one that will prescribe medicines "off-label" as are about 10-20% of prescriptions written in the U.S.
You can see from the diagram there isn't much time to fool around with. One might not even become very symptomatic until day 5, and at that point antivirals will begin to become less and less effective as the days go by, as your system begins to go into the inflammatory phase.
