So if you want to go the pharma route (if it is available) then:
Short List to Fight COVID if Infected
“Short List to Fight COVID if Infected
- Metformin: anti-inflammatory & anti-viral
- Zinc: anti-viral
- Quercetin: anti-viral
- Famotidine: slows the production of inflammatory cytokines.
- Mouthwash with CPC kills the virus in the mouth & throat.
- Saline nasal spray & rinse
- Vit.C, B2, D3 w/K2, & E
- Probiotics
- CoQ-10: helps prevent mitochondrial dysfunction.
- No sugar
- Extra water
- Sleep/ rest”
Frontiers | Real-world effectiveness and safety of nirmatrelvir-ritonavir (Paxlovid)-treated for COVID-19 patients with onset of more than 5 days: a retrospective cohort study
A study in Guangzhou, China, with 248 COVID-19 patients found that Paxlovid is effective and safe when given within 10 days of onset, reducing viral load
Effectiveness decreases after 10 days, but multiple cycles may help if the viral load remains high

Of course, I had to do this myself the next time I or one of my patients got sick with COVID: Here's that story. Amazing:
Case study: sunlight therapy and Covid
Cardiopulmonary and hematological effects of infrared LED photobiomodulation in the treatment of SARS-COV2
Photobiomodulation therapy can be used as an adjunct in the treatment in COVID-19.
Two papers that convinced me that the best early treatment for COVID is sunlight and why (a thread):

Sunlight's photons are more than 50% infrared. Infrared light passes through the body very easily (even through bone). As seen in this picture:”
METFORMIN: FROM DIABETES TO CANCER TO PROLONGATION OF LIFE
Metformin, used by over 150 million people, shows potential beyond diabetes, possibly reducing cancer risk and extending life.
Recent studies suggest it might also help treat COVID-19 and #LongCOVID by improving metabolic health.
Berberine reduces circulating inflammatory mediators in patients with severe COVID-19 | British Journal of Surgery | Oxford Academic
Berberine is 18 times more potent than Metformin in killing SARS-Cov-2, 1.5 times more potent than paxlovid. Berberine powerfully mitigates inflammatory cascade responses to SARS-Cov-2
Outpatient treatment of COVID-19 and incidence of post-COVID-19 condition over 10 months (COVID-OUT): a multicentre, randomised, quadruple-blind, parallel-group, phase 3 trial
Post-COVID-19 condition (also known as long COVID) is an emerging chronic illness potentially affecting millions of people. We aimed to evaluate whether outpatient COVID-19 treatment with metformin, ivermectin, or fluvoxamine soon after SARS-CoV-2 infection could reduce the risk of long COVID.

Access Metformin to reduce risk of Long COVID
A clinical trial showed metformin reduced risk of #LongCovid by ~41% when taken during acute #covid! Access #metformin (covid study dosing) easier here:
