      Everytime I hear it introduced as “horse dewormer”. The bias is already made clear.

      While Mel Gibson is clearly off his rocker in that Ivermectin can’t do jack shit against cancer… So is OP for acting like it’s not safe for human consumption. It’s safe for consumption even at 10x a “normal” dosage (with all the Covid-19 studies showing that while more or less ineffective for COVID, not at all harmful otherwise at up to 3000μg/kg… or 15x a typical dosage http://ssrn.com/abstract=3714649).

      IVM has been used safely in 3.7 billion doses worldwide since 1987

      It’s 100% safe… and boatloads of it have been given to humans for longer than most people arguing about this shit have been alive.

      TL;DR… While probably useless for anything that people recently attribute to it… It’s safe for consumption as a general rule.
