Default Re: Covid 19 -

Ok I'll try again; There is to my knowledge only one Ivermectin, discovered about 25 years ago long before Covid. It comes in different forms depending on whether it is intended for human or animal use. But it's the same drug. It kills parasites. There is no other drug with the same name, as far as I know, developed for any other purpose.

There were claims that people were taking Invermectin meant for horses and while it may be the same drug, the dose for a horse is a bit more than what is suitable for a person.

Sometimes a drug developed to cure one problem works with other issues, or sometimes people just believe it may help. But Ivermectin was never developed to treat Covid and its manufacturer has not claimed it will do so. There has been some studies on how effective it is in treating Covid, the Internet will provide you with evidence for any opinion you want to hold.
