From what I know, Merck, the manufacturer of Ivermectin, discredited its use as a Covid-19 treatment [1]. If there's any one with the incentive to promote it, it's them, but they didn't. It strikes me as weird that some people still stubbornly tout the drug.

- swader999 5y agoThey definitely did their best to discredit it. It's off patent, they have no financial incentive to promote it and huge incentive to burry it. They stand to make a lot of money off of their newer competitor to ivermectin called molnupiravir, just approved under emergency use authorisation.$700 per dose if I remember correctly vs less than a penny per dose to manufacture ivermectin.
