Do you believe that to be some sort of counter-argument or opposing view for anything I said?
Regardless of the answer, I'm not interested in debating the wisdom of taking dog medicine in unstudied doses for an unstudied treatment with unstudied effectiveness that has a clearly documented ability to strip the lining of your intestines. You want be a trailblazer with every Facebook remedy? Be my guest.
- ed25519FUUU 5y agoYou know IVM has been around since the 70s? People take it all of the time. It’s a very studied drug, on the list of WHO’s 100 most essential medicines. The inventor won the noble prize for it. The cultivated animosity towards it is more of a result of propaganda. With this much money at stake, it’s easy to see who might actually be pushing that propaganda.
- HelloMcFly 5y agoLet's make it explicit: I personally know people - including one direct and one extended family member - involved in this Facebook-science culture. I have seen the videos they are following, I know they are taking the medicine for an unresearched purpose in recommended dosages without any cited scientific reasoning to support. I'm not anti-Ivermectin anymore than I'm anti-any prescribed drug. I give it to my dog. My dad has used it, under the guidance of a doctor.
