According to a new report, the Pfizer COVID-19 antiviral pill, Paxlovid, may pose risks when mixed with other medications.
Indeed, many people prescribed Pfizer or Merck’s new medications will require careful monitoring by doctors and pharmacists,
The FDA last Wednesday authorized the first Covid-19 antiviral pill for emergency use. The Pfizer drug will be prescribed for use in adults and children over the age of 12 with mild to moderate sickness who are at risk for severe disease or hospitalization.
However, one of the two drugs in the cocktail could cause life-threatening interactions with widely used medications, including blood thinners; anti-seizure medications; drugs for irregular heart rhythms, high blood pressure and high cholesterol; immunosuppressants; steroids; HIV treatments; erectile dysfunction medications; and some antidepressants and anti-anxiety medications.
Additionally, the FDA does not recommend Paxlovid for people with severe kidney or liver disease.
Due to concerns about the potential side effects of Merck’s molnupiravir, the FDA has restricted its use to adults and only in scenarios in which other authorized treatments are inaccessible or aren’t “clinically appropriate.”

I am not trying to bring up discussion of the whole covid and 'pandemic' situation, and most may know how I feel about all that anyway.
BUT .... I figured since this is a warning and not all our members may know about it and Doctors and Pharmacists and the FDA or CDC or Governments and Pharma can not be trusted to tell us all the facts or the truth at any given time, so I want to post it here for all to see and take due precautions.
As per example.. Phizers has asked for 75 years to publish it's steps taken to ensure their vaccine is safe.
Phizer and Moderna both reported that they some how lost much of their reports and research during the trials, rather convenient for them
