At the risk of going full doomsday mode (and besides stockpiling on food and masks) - lets say pandemic happens and some useful meds/vitamins do go out of stock - is there any advice what those are i.e. what kind of meds/vitamins would be practical to buy right now to help fight/slow COVID-19/infection in the future?

No, just food and meds for fever. I'm actually concerned there will be a shortage of food just because everybody is stocking up at a sudden panic, not necessarily because we actually end up with a huge pandemic (which might or might not happen at a later point in time). So for the first time in my life I'm thinking about actually doing this.

I don't think anything is known to help in treating/curing right now, I'd guess most of the relevant medicine is just to treat the symptoms while you ride it out. Stuff like fever reducers (ibuprofen) or something to relieve the respiratory symptoms (dayquil/nose spray).

I'm also interested in what drugs are commonly used on COVID-19 positive individuals.

Antibiotics do not protect against viruses. This is a viral infection, not a bacterial one.
