I need a drug that fits the following criteria:
1) It's a staple modern medical product, preferably an antibiotic or anti-viral. Something that might be used as a best-guess treatment for an unknown contagious disease.
2) If this drug is administered to a healthy individual, it will noticeably and predictably alter at least one measurement on a standard blood panel.
The scenario is "we've been unable to determine the cause or nature of the disease but if we do nothing the outcome is horrible. Let's progressively throw all the drugs at it and hope one sticks."
In case it affects the choice of drugs, primary symptoms are change in hair color and progressive loss of higher cognitive function.
