I Just Want To Point Out That Yes, You Should Stick To Paracetamol If You Can.

I just want to point out that yes, you should stick to paracetamol if you can.

But if you are currently taking ibuprofen, check with your doctor before stopping it, if it's for a reason unrelated to the Covid-19. Basically you shouldn’t self medicate anti-inflammatory drugs if you get the disease, this should be your main takeaway from this.

I’m no doctor, but here’s a BBC article that states that : “Prof Parastou Donyai at the University of Reading says: "There are many studies that suggest ibuprofen use during a respiratory infection can result in worsening of the disease or other complications." But, she says, "I have not seen any scientific evidence that clearly shows a totally healthy 25 year old taking ibuprofen for symptoms of COVID-19 is putting themselves at additional risk of complications."“ (https://www.bbc.com/news/51929628 ) Here’s a fact checking site saying the same thing :”https://www.channel4.com/news/factcheck/factcheck-paracetamol-is-recommended-for-coronavirus“ and also busting some myths/false stories that have been floating around. here’s a third source just to make sure : https://www.france24.com/fr/20200317-coronavirus-pas-d-ibuprof%C3%A8ne-en-autom%C3%A9dication-recommande-l-oms (this is french news and a very legit website) Also The Guardian is not being misleading here, but I want to point out that this is “it may” as in “we don’t know yet, we don’t have enough evidence”.

Also in the New York Times and the Guardian. Article with no paywall here: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/mar/14/anti-inflammatory-drugs-may-aggravate-coronavirus-infection.
