Taking ibuprofen and other over-the-counter anti-inflammatories may worsen coronavirus, French health minister warns

Taking ibuprofen may worsen symptoms of the deadly coronavirus, France's health minister has warned.

Olivier Véran claimed the over-the-counter medication – which the NHS says could help tackle symptoms – may aggravate the infection.

The controversial statement goes against health chiefs' advice to use ibuprofen as well as paracetamol to self-medicate for the killer disease.

Ibuprofen is widely taken to relieve pain as well as reduce a fever and aches caused by common colds and flu.

Aspirin works and is very effective on the fever. Give aspirin to anyone that gets this virus and it will work on it.
