Answering the Question of the Ivermectin Side Effects in Humans
Executive Summary
- There are many questions related to the Ivermectin side effects in humans, and a lot of inaccurate information provided by health authorities.
- This article covers the real story of the Ivermectin side effects.
Introduction
On the question of the Ivermectin side effects in humans, to keep people from taking Ivermectin, as it would have cannibalized the sales of far more expensive on-patent medications with far lower side effects, the health authorities, under the control of the pharmaceutical companies, massively exaggerated the side effects of Ivermectin in humans with Ivermectin. A good example is the FDA’s warning on Ivermectin, which you can read here. That article focuses on whether Ivermectin is safe for covid — however, this website covers the use of Ivermectin for many purposes. All health authorities want Ivermectin only limited for use against parasites, which is a far too restrictive use of Ivermectin considering its proven benefits in many areas. This article covers the side effects of ivermectin in humans without any pharmaceutical influence or political considerations.
The FDA on Ivermectin Safety and Side Effects
Q: Is there any danger to humans taking ivermectin? A: There are approved uses for ivermectin in people and animals but it is not approved for the prevention or treatment of COVID-19. – FDA
The FDA is leaving out a lot of information context here. First, Ivermectin is not approved for most areas where it is beneficial. There is no incentive for any drug company to fund a study into uses outside of being an antiparasitic because the patent has expired. Therefore, there will never be a submission to the FDA to approve Ivermectin for another use. Therefore, the FDA pretends that many studies into Ivermectin don’t exist. Merck, the originator of Ivermectin, does not want Ivermectin used at all — and has introduced an inferior drug that seeks to simulate the benefits of Ivermectin called Molnupiravir, but which is dramatically inferior to Ivermectin in every way. Therefore, Ivermectin is not and will never be approved for any other use than antiparasitic. However, that has zero to do with the evidence of its effectiveness against covid and many other medical areas and is 100% due to how drugs are approved. No matter how much evidence exists for the effectiveness of a drug, the FDA will never run its tests — all tests must be submitted for approval by pharmaceutical companies. No one but pharmaceutical companies has a right to submit any tests to the FDA. And as for the rest of the world, they copy whatever the FDA says — without doing their own evaluation.
One of the FDA’s jobs is to carefully evaluate the scientific data on a drug to be sure that it is both safe and effective for a particular use. In some instances, it can be highly dangerous to use a medicine for the prevention or treatment of COVID-19 that has not been approved by or has not received emergency use authorization from the FDA. – FDA
That is amusing. The FDA does not carefully evaluate the scientific data to be sure that it is both safe and effective. The pharmaceutical industry controls the FDA and has ceased to perform any other function (in the area of drugs) than maximizing the profits of pharma companies. Ivermectin is not a highly dangerous drug — it is one of the lowest-risk drugs that exists — the drug that the FDA approved, called Remedsivir for covid, is a highly dangerous drug. See Ivermectin’s safety profile versus the mRNA vaccines or Remdesivir in the article How Safe Are the Covid Vaccines VS Ivermectin and Remdesivir? Once you see the pricing of Remdesivir, you will understand why the pharma companies have told the FDA to cover up its safety. You can read that in the article How Safe Are the Covid Vaccines VS Ivermectin and Remdesivir?
Currently available data do not show ivermectin is effective against COVID-19. Clinical trials assessing ivermectin tablets for the prevention or treatment of COVID-19 in people are ongoing. – FDA
Only Take FDA Approved Drugs?
You should not take any medicine to treat or prevent COVID-19 unless it has been prescribed to you by your health care provider and acquired from a legitimate source. – FDA
When the FDA was first created, it was designed to provide guidance on drugs. It was never supposed to be designed to remove the rights of patients to take drugs that they saw fit if they were informed. The FDA has now morphed into stating that it has the right to tell everyone in the US and basically the world, as all the foreign drug-approving entities don’t do much more than copy whatever the FDA says.
