The Effect of Novel D3 Use as a Mouthwash in COVID-19 Patients
Summary
The PI's goal of this \[interventional/clinical trial\] is to \[explore the antiviral properties of vitamin D3 on saliva samples collected before and after the use of a vitamin D3 mouthwash\] in \[ adult participants, both genders, with COVID-19 who tested positive on a swab test\]. The main question\[s\] aims to answer \[is\]: \[Assess the antiviral potential of a novel vitamin D-based mouthwash in COVID-19-positive participants\]. PI will compare both \[Control group: saliva only- before use of mouthwash\], and the \[study group: after use of the mouthwash in saliva\] to see if there is \[any veridical effect present in saliva after running lab tests\]. Participants will \[self-collect saliva in a given tube (color coded orange), then 10-15 minutes later or more, participants will swish with D3 mouthwash, and will give another sample \[saliva + mouthwash\] in another (green labeled tube). For each participant, each of the following will be given: * 2 collecting tubes: orange labeled tube (for saliva collection only) and green labeled tube (for saliva collection after mouthwash use). * The vial containing vitamin D3 mouthwash.
