Trump got a monoclonal antibody drug, the antiviral remdesivir and the steroid dexamethasone as part of his coronavirus treatment. Here's how a person on some of those medicines might be faring at this point in their care.

The president got a monoclonal antibody treatment made by Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc., the antiviral remdesivir, made by Gilead Sciences Inc.

, and the steroid dexamethasone. “He’s getting the state of the art, the trio of best drugs,” said Peter Chin-Hong, an infectious disease specialist at the University of California, San Francisco.

First thing to know. Nobody at WSJ is treating the President! Sonthisvis interesting, but hardly compelling. Second, all that crap about side effects is lawyer generated to insulate companies from lawsuits! Wonder why drugs cost so much? They have to pay the lawyers!

If I got Covid I'd request that very same prescription, the president said it would be free as well.

the treatment is ready, media make all they can people don't get it before election. they are ready to kill innocent to win , and as it is not enough they use fake ballots and they will start a new impeachment. WE ARE FED UP .

Stop the BS Steroids are always given to stop inflammation & give antibiotics a chance to work. Where the heck are you trying to go with this nonsense better do your homework. Short term steroid TX doesn't effect your mental state knock it off. Sickening

Although WSJ is a respectable paper, I disagree with the fear mongering. COVID has been weponized by the left. It is not as bad as they make it seem, don't beleive me, look at CDC data. We need to learn how to live with it. Thanks Mr. President, great we have a true leader!

Obese 74 yr old man who is no longer taking medication after a week. I'm going to guess they'd be fairing pretty well. Is this the conclusion of the article? If not its bullshit

Moot point beause: Fewer than 10 compassionate-use requests have been granted for Regeneron’s experimental antibody cocktail. The president was, presumably, one of those 10 people. (another could be Melania) You and I would never get access to the monoclonal antibodies.

No other individual in the world has gotten the treatment trump that vulgar irresponsible cretin, received. Better people have died alone and in pain because of him.

can I get helicoptered to Walter Reed Hospital?

Gotta give credit 2President 4 taking the risk n put himself as an experiment 4 a drug that has not entered d concluding stage. Not all like him willing to take that risk. That’s what makes him different from Biden. Trump is indeed a fighter. That’s why he is back on his feet.

The Street reports DJT is tripping on massive amounts of potent drugs. Dextamethasone is seeping out of his pours.

Now do every other wealthy person who has contracted a Covid over the last 3 months.

You can’t compare any patient with another. Antivirals seem to work well. Steroid for breathing does too. My daughter had Covid- did not need antiviral but did get steroid. Clear within a few days.

My husband an I tested positive in SC - and this medication regimen was not made available to us - thankful President Trump got them and much quicker turn around - ours has dragged out 60 days

Trump just doesn't care! He was just diagnosed with covid 7 DAYS ago. Since he saying he feels great he wants in person debates and rallies! Everyone who comes into contact with him will be at risk! What an idiot! He doesn't get it, Lying trump! Our experts say quarantine 14 days

Of course not, you will not get the medications that the president received. But, these medications are in human trial, so there's no guarantee they'll cure him. Side effects will be revealed sooner or later on him

This side effect doesn't sound too good...

Hey WSJ, your articles are undisputably the best but subscription fee to WSJ is too expensive. Why not cut it by half? You’ll probably get more subscribers. At least I know I’ll subscribe in a heartbeat.

Sounds familiar. 😷

realDonaldTrump Judging by his CAPITALIZED tweets over the past few days, his doctors went a little heavy on the dexamethasone.

Trump is jacked up.

Vote for hugo biden and in real hugo harris . Biden say anything hugo chavez say in 1998 .chavez win a fair election in 1998 and reach power by democracy . Taking money from the rich and distributing it among the poor.Biden does not share wealth, he shares poverty

Got 1.5 million on hand?

HE IS UNFIT FOR OFFICE!!

But human stem cells were used in its development; shades of grey Regeneron antibody cocktail

We all need to work for the welfare of the hungry, sick, naked and underprivileged, for the service of humanity, for the happy life of the all animals and birds, for protection and preservation of the natural environment and natural resources and for world peace.

life is not equal. recognize and accept it.

A close family member got those same drugs in TN a couple months ago, and they worked exceptionally well. She recovered very quickly and credits those medications.

SAD!

Trump falsely dismisses virus danger: 'You catch it, you get better, and you're immune'Pres. Trump downplays his own sickness and the threat to Americans across the country just days after being hospitalized for COVID-19 and as he continues to receive medical care at the White House. My whole family got the virus and though you test positive your body already feels recovered and well. You all just have a following to feed bs to , so I get it but just know your bs made changed my vote from democrat to republican. ✌🏽 “That’s what he said” (per Trump’s casket) ABC can’t believe that Trump has recovered from Covid. So it spreads unfounded rumors about his condition.
