> Research evidence indicates that following an infection there may be on-going over-activity of the immune system occurring in both ME/CFS and Long Covid.
>
> As this may then result in low level inflammation, various types of anti-inflammatory drugs have been assessed as a possible form of treatment.
>
> The results from clinical trials that have been carried out so far have failed to establish that anti inflammatory drugs are an effective form of treatment for either condition.
