“60 kg or more: 1 g chloroquine phosphate (600 mg base) orally as an initial dose, followed by 500 mg chloroquine phosphate (300 mg base) orally after 6 to 8 hours, then 500 mg chloroquine phosphate (300 mg base) orally once a day on the next 2 consecutive days
Total dose: 2.5 g chloroquine phosphate (1.5 g base) in 3 days”

If the combo works as it has been so far, it’s a game changer, it’s a cheap drug widely produces already and the side effects are well known and don’t include death.

So when patients O2 sats fall due to inflamed, congested bronchial pathways, and become unresponsive, what is the dosage for IV delivery?
