Lianhua Qingwen medicine, ibinigay sa mga mild COVID-patient sa Cainta

Nagsimulang magpamahagi ng tradisyonal na Chinese herbal medicine, Lianhua Qingwen para sa mild COVID-19 patients sa mga nasasakupan, ang local government unit ng Cainta.


Ayon kay Mayor Keith Nieto, ibinigay ang naturang gamot matapos ang naging payo ng mga doktor o “strict doctor’s advice” sa kanila.


“Mayroong mga doktor na assigned for them to take it. They are mature enough to check on it and make sure it is something that has efficacy and that is not detrimental to their (patients’) health,” sabi ni Nieto.


Gayunman, sabi ni Nieto, ang gamot ay bilang supplements at hindi COVID-19 treatment para sa mga pasyente na sumasailalim sa home quarantine sa Cainta.


“Ang case nila ay mild to moderate. Lahat ng naka-home quarantine, may naka-assign na doktor sa kanila at tatawag sa kanila everyday. ‘Pag sinabi ng doktor na hindi, hindi. ‘Pag sinabi ng doktor na puwede, puwede,” ani Nieto.


“It’s really up to them because I trust them that based on their knowledge, they would exactly know how to treat and manage these COVID patients,” dagdag pa niya.


Gayundin, aprubado na ng Food and Drug Administration (FDA) ang Lianhua Qingwen na gamitin sa bansa upang gamutin ang mga may lung toxins, lagnat at iba pang katulad na sintomas.


Subalit, ayon kay FDA director general Eric Domingo, hindi pa ito inaprubahan bilang treatment para sa COVID-19.


Ipinaliwanag naman ni Dr. Philip Tan-Gaute, isang traditional medicine expert, na ang Lianhua Qingwen ay kombinasyon ng Chinese herbal formulas, na daang taon na at ginagamit upang gamutin ang pasyenteng may wheezing cough at sore throat.


"It can help alleviate the symptoms, shorten the treatment time, but not necessarily decrease the chance of progression to severe disease," sabi ni Tan-Gaute.


"These compounds from the herbs, they will alleviate the symptoms and help the body fight off the virus. It's still the body that does the job. Is it a useful treatment? With some cases, yes. Not all cases," dagdag pa ni Tan-Gaute.
