Anyone else getting treatment in Japan for post-COVID loss of smell?

Just thought it might be interested to compare treatment and prescriptions if anyone else was in the same boat.

I was given two weeks’ worth of

サンベタゾン betamethasone, topical steroid nose drops, 2x/day

メチコバール Methylcobalamin, type of vitamin B12, 3x/day

Kampo #23, 3x/day

They didn’t seem to do much, so I didn’t go back to the clinic after the two weeks were up. Two weeks after that, my wife convinced me to go back, and after a two-minute consultation, the doctor prescribed three months of the same regimen.
