yang2I mean an effect of it is lowering the body temperature19:22
LjLyang2, it only helps make you feel better, but it doesn't do anything "to" COVID20:03
yang2LjL: right, so it will pass even without taking paracetomol20:08
LjLwell, hopefully!20:08
yang2...yeah20:08
LjLit's possible that other medications, like aspirin for example, have some more direct action, there were some studies on the matter. but i also remember some studies finding it detrimental, so you would need to do your own research20:09
LjL(and if you've never taken aspirin before, it's possibly not a good idea to start now, just in case you're allergic to it or something... worst time to find out)20:09

LjLyang2, just remember paracetamol is hard on the liver (if you take it too often, it's fine as a one off), while aspirin and many other NSAIDs are hard on the stomach, so keep that in mind if COVID is maybe already giving you stomach trouble, at least take it with a meal20:46
yang2LjL: thank you for telling me, I knew this before. And there is like 2000-3000mg overdose with paracetomol daily I think, like you mentioned liver problems could appear21:04
