Executive Summary

  • An essential topic regarding Ivermectin is Ivermectin for humans versus animal Ivermectin.

Introduction

The pharmaceutical-controlled MSM made a major issue about animal Ivermectin. This article covers this topic in detail, explaining how much of these differences are accurate or exaggerated for monetary or political reasons.

Animal Versus Ivermectin for Humans

The media made a huge issue of humans taking animal Ivermectin. A good example of this is found in this warning from the FDA.

Ivermectin is not approved for use against covid — however, it is effective against covid. Curiously, antidepressants are used for many conditions for which they have never been shown effective — which is called off-label prescribing — however, and the FDA does not issue warnings against this usage. Furthermore, this Twitter share tries to instill the idea that Ivermectin is only for horses or for livestock generally — when Ivermectin has been approved for humans for over 40 years.

The question should be asked is, does the FDA think that Ivermectin is not approved for humans? If it knows this is false, why did it decide to communicate that Ivermectin is only for animals? There are a wide number of drugs that are both used for animals and humans — will the FDA be creating similar shares on Twitter warning people that they are not dogs, cats, mice, or other animals — for drugs approved for people? Many medical websites copied this false information; this quote from Haywood Regional Medical Center’s website is a good example.

Ivermectin is a drug that is often used in the U.S. to treat or prevent parasites in animals. Ivermectin tablets are sometimes used at very specific doses to treat some parasitic worms in humans, and there are also topical (on the skin) formulations for head lice and skin conditions like rosacea. It is NOT intended for use as an anti-viral drug in either humans or animals.

It is not “sometimes used” it is often used for these purposes.

Also, what is the point of limiting the conversation to the use in the US?

The reason is simple — Ivermectin is widely used in Africa and other countries close to the equator where tropical parasites are very common. In Africa, Ivermectin is called the “Sunday Sunday” drug. This quote deliberately excludes other countries because the author could hide this fact and the fact that Ivermectin has been prescribed billions of times and is on the WHO’s Essential Medicine List. Remember that this is not a list of essential medicines for animals but for humans. 

What is a drug only meant for horses (according to the FDA) doing on this essential list?

Haywood Regional then proposed something odd in the next quote.

If you have a prescription for an FDA-approved use of this drug, be sure to get it from a legitimate source in the appropriate formulation and dosage, and take it exactly as prescribed and only for the specific condition(s) being treated.

You can’t take Ivermectin “only for the specific condition” being treated; it will affect the entire body, which is a good thing. This is because Ivermectin has many benefits, from cancer protection to anti-inflammation.

Secondly, as I wrote earlier, antidepressants are prescribed off-label and, therefore, not for what they are approved for. However, I could find no such warning against antidepressants on the Haywood Regional Medical Center website, even though Ivermectin has a vastly superior safety record compared to antidepressants.

Also, if this animal/human dichotomy is going to be maintained, why was a recent covid vaccine booster approved after being tested on only eight rats?

A logical extension of the FDA’s communication would go something like this.

You are not a mouse; you are not a rat; seriously, y’all, stop taking covid vaccines.

or perhaps this one is directed toward medical researchers.

A humans is not a mouse; they are not rats; seriously, y’all, stop submitting studies to us that use rat and mice to get approval for drugs used in humans.

Furthermore, has the FDA considered the fact that it and the overall medical establishment have made it so difficult to get prescriptions for Ivermectin, they are responsible for pushing people to animal Ivermectin.

Naturally no. (and they don’t care)

Did the FDA disclose in this share that the reason they created this and rail against Ivermectin is that they are remotely controlled…
