I honestly thought this was just a meme, but people are really taking animal medicine?
how are they figuring up the dosages?

The paste tubes actually have a marker so when you push it out it'll show you how much paste for every 50 pounds. So 1/5 of the tube would be for 200 pounds for instance.

They’re probably using the increments on the plunger which is funny cause the paste is based on dosages for a horse.
The paste tastes terrible. That much I can tell you cause I’ve accidentally ingested it while working my horses. Apple flavor, my arse!

i’m not sure that i actually believe that people are taking animal medication as a COVID preventative. I know it’s a running snarky meme / joke people use in a snarky manner towards the unvaccinated. but i just don’t believe there is a significant population doing so. And i have a lot of family, friends, and acquaintances from rural Louisiana, Texas, and Mississippi.

SHe told me it's based on a 1250# horse .. I think that the syringe pic she sent showed 250# increments?? She's 125# or so so she took half.
Again, I'm not .. just sharing what she told me. Make of it what you will.

They actually have long term data on ivermectin. I’m not trying to cause a fight but the hate ivermectin gets is pretty funny. Literally the worst case scenario with Ivermectin is that it does nothing but at least now you don’t have worms.

I’m well aware and very familiar with the packaging.
The paste is manufactured for animals with different weights than a human. I don’t think you can set it on 200# and assume the concentration is safe or effective for a human when it’s
Made for a farm animal.
I’m not arguing against using Ivermectin. Get it if you want to. But at least get something where you can know for sure how much you’re taking.

Ah I see what you mean. Yeah I never thought about it like that. I know a few people who have tried it and had no bad reactions or anything. I had covid earlier this year and it did nothing to me besides lose taste and smell for a week so I haven't thought about trying some apple flavored horse paste just yet haha.

is the human ivermectin the same as the animal ivermectin? like is the formula in the medicine the same?
because none of the animal ivermectin has ever been tested on humans

I guess my point is Why can’t we have both??

Myself, my father, my uncle and my aunt all took it when we had Covid 19 earlier this year. We were back on our feet in 24 to 48 hours with zero symptoms. I personally tested negative for Covid 3 days later when I returned to work.
We took it at the advice of my fathers Doctor. My mother was the only one in our group of infected who did not want to take it and she fought Covid19 for a little over two weeks before she got better. Take that as you will.
All that said, we all took it except for my mom. We were back on our feet in 24 to 48 hours.

My feed dealer has sold more liquid ivermectin in the last three weeks than he did in three years. Fact.
Unless a bunch of new people got into the cattle/horse business, who do you think is buying it?

Ivermectin is Ivermectin. I don’t recommend people getting the live stock version but the regular version is definitely available and can be prescribed.

So much bad information on Ivermectin.
The drug has been in use on humans since 1988.
It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.
The developers of the drug won a 2015 Nobel Prize for its discovery.
Ivermectin has been used safely by hundreds of millions of people
The medicine is safe. But, get a Dr to prescribe it to you.

I think it’s the same concentration regardless if its
In a liquid or pill form. I can tell you I’ve taken veterinary grade Prednisone and Methocarbamol and Winstrol (years ago) with no issues. But that was pills or liquids and I could deduce a dosage based on concentrations.
Not sure about buffers and such to keep you from shitting all over yourself or damaging your intestines.

No. But as a cattle dewormer it is effective against a wide range of external and internal parasites in beef cattle and swine. Bonus is that if you take it you won’t have any worms or lice!!!
