Cetrizine has been a game-changer for me in managing the lingering symptoms of long COVID. Since using this medication into my treatment regimen, I have noticed a significant improvement in my overall well-being. The relief it provides from symptoms such as fatigue, brain fog, and respiratory issues has been remarkable. While it may not be a cure, cetrizine has definitely enhanced my quality of life during this challenging period. I highly recommend considering cetrizine as part of a comprehensive approach to managing long COVID symptoms.
