It’s an emergency ibuprofen in the Lazio. “He’s been missing for weeks,” says Eugenio Leopardi, president of Federfarma Lazio. With infections from Omicron 5 which continue to increase (today 6692 cases) more and more people are looking for the recommended drug for fever, muscle pain and headache. The latest variants of Covid have milder symptoms than the initial form of the virus. A consequence that could also be the result of the action of vaccines, as indicated by a part of science. But Covid hides the risk of more serious problems. And the attention to identify it and treat it immediately remains high among all citizens.
Covid, boom infections. Sardinia black jersey, then Lazio: these are the regions where the virus runs the most
Because there is no ibuprofen
Ibuprofen is an anti-inflammatory drug used to relieve headaches, neuralgia, menstrual cramps, musculoskeletal pains (e.g. stiff neck). Is it used for Omicron 5? “The doctor always chooses whether to prescribe ibuprofen or another medicine, depending on the seriousness of the situation”, explains Eugenio Leopardi, president of Federfarma Lazio. «It is certainly used very often for the care of the latest Omicron variants». But if you can’t find it at the pharmacy, there are alternatives.
The alternative
“There are several ibuprofen-based drugs available in pharmacies.” The president of Federfarma Lazio dulls the alarm that runs on social media, with several people already shouting at the emergency. A Moment can also be used as a substitute for the anti-inflammatory drug because it is based on the same substance. And therefore also the same effect.
