This is a case series of five patients with no controls from 2.5 years ago with zero total citations. Doesn't seem like a lot to go on, and reducing the oxygen requirement is the normal course of treatment for a patient that is improving. This is very poor quality evidence and really shouldn't be the basis for any decision making. Even on a home scale the damage from incorporating more superstitious thinking in an individual's approach would outweigh the potential benefits.
Pepto is still great for an upset stomach though. Use it for that, not for covid. Not based on this case series at least.
