CV and mad panic behaviour

[LP]

Interesting to read the Heparin claims being made in the media, I wonder what the dose is for treating Sars-CoV-2, but it's hard to see it used prophylactically given the potential bad effects of over-use.

So I presume they are talking a boutique treatment for those people with COVID who qualify as candidates.

Given strokes / haemorrhages are a potential side-effect of heparin, is it wise to be spraying up your nose in the close proximity to or bypassing the blood / brain barrier?

FYI

One way to bypass the blood brain barrier and thus treat diseases of the brain is to use the nasal route of administration and deposit drugs at the olfactory region of the nares, from where they travel to the brain via mechanisms that are still not clearly understood, with travel across nerve fibers and travel via a perivascular pathway both being hypothesized.
