Covid Medications
Hi doctor. I have a doubt. My husband recovered from covid, like its almost 17 days from his onset of symptoms. He had cough, loss of taste and smell. Tab. Predmet 8 mg was taken by him from 11th to 15th day from the onset of symptoms. We just came to know that it's a steroid. We are afraid that if it would cause any after effects or black fungus. Now my husband is ok. But should we be worried of this?
