Can Methylene Blue Help With Long Covid?

Writer's picture: John KimJohn Kim

Below link will take you to my favorite medical search engine - scholar.google.com search on Methylene Blue & Long Covid:



Long COVID, refers to a range of symptoms that persist for weeks or months after the acute phase of a COVID-19 infection has resolved. Common symptoms include fatigue, difficulty breathing, brain fog, sleep disturbances, and cardiovascular issues. While anyone can develop long COVID, it appears more frequently in individuals who had severe initial infections, though even mild cases can lead to prolonged symptoms. The exact cause of long COVID is still under investigation, and treatment focuses on symptom management and supportive care. The condition has significant implications for public health and patient quality of life.


One of my patients with severe Long Covid symptoms was initially treated using treatments for chronic fatigue and autoimmune disease. My earlier blog entry on could Long Covid be an autoimmune condition can be found through below link:



However, we did not see significant improvements until we used methylene blue - about 2 - 3 months later, patient shared that her fatigue and brain fog has improved significantly. It is believe methylene blue can enhance function of mitochondria, provide anti-oxidant effects, and neuroinflammation reduction.
