Have you read the FDA's article? Let me summarize. Thou shalt not use Ivermectin because: > Ivermectin tablets are approved [...] for some parasitic worms. > Taking large doses of this drug is dangerous and can cause serious harm. (Unlike any other drug.) > There’s a lot of misinformation around, and you may have heard that it’s okay to take large doses of ivermectin. ...while also... > The FDA has not reviewed data to support use of ivermectin in COVID-19 patients to treat or to prevent COVID-19; however, some initial research is underway. Taking a drug for an unapproved use can be very dangerous. This is true of ivermectin, too. > Ivermectin Products for Animals Are Different from Ivermectin Products for People Scientific authority is an oxymoron.

> > Ivermectin tablets are approved [...] some parasitic worms. Doctors prescribe stuff off-label all the time. I've taken off-label prescriptions before. Our son takes off-label prescriptions. The fact that X has not been approved for Y doesn't mean much. Now that's not saying anyone should take ivermectin for COVID-19. I myself probably wouldn't, and if a doctor wanted to prescribe it to me I'd be sceptical. But my reasons for not wanting to take ivermectin for COVID-19 have little to do with the issue of on-label vs off-label use.
