In some parts of Egypt, in order to improve the symptoms of colds, a mixture of antibiotics, painkillers, and cortisone, which has an anti-allergic effect, has been injected for a long time, commonly known as 'Hitler Shot'.

It is reported that this injection is given without proper prescription by a doctor, and its use is increasing with the expansion of COVID-19. However, doctors point out that the injection is especially dangerous for patients with allergies and chest problems, and abuse of cortisone can reduce the patient's immune response and be life-threatening. In fact, it is said that a fatal accident due to Hitler shot has also been confirmed.



Hosam Hosni, president of the COVID-19 Countermeasure Science Committee, accused Hitler Shot of being 'unacceptably unreasonable.' Egyptian health officials warned that 'people should not take medicine without a doctor's prescription.'
