This is a case of a 35-year-old woman who presented with an 18-month history of post (long)-COVID depression and exhaustion along with recurrent fevers and treatment-resistant skin boils, all of which abated with lithium treatment at a serum level of 1.14 mmol/L, and all of which worsened when the lithium serum level was lowered to 0.8. This paper illustrates Lithium's effectiveness in the treatment of post (long)-COVID syndrome, though a higher serum concentration may be required.
这是一位 35 岁女性的病例,她因长新冠后抑郁和疲惫,以及反复发作的发热和对抗生素治疗无效的皮肤疖而就诊。这些症状在血清锂水平为 1.14mmol/L 时用锂治疗后缓解,而当血清锂水平降低至 0.8mmol/L 时则恶化。本文说明了锂在治疗长新冠综合征中的有效性,尽管可能需要更高的血清浓度。
