Some social media users have been saying that Merck’s experimental COVID-19 antiviral product molnupiravir is a rebranded version of the anti-parasitic Ivermectin. Two disease experts have told Reuters that this is not the case and that the chemical make-up of the two drugs is different.
One tweet (here ) reads, “Ivermectin is a safe cure that was removed from CDC treatment protocol. Merck refurbishes it and *poof, it’s a miracle pill. Further proof that Big Pharma is in the business of creating customers.”
Similar posts on Facebook are visible here and here .
One reads, in part, “The pharmaceutical giant Merck just “developed” a pill that does the same thing as Ivermectin.”
The professors
Dr. Stephen Griffin, virologist and associate professor at the University of Leeds ( here ), told Reuters that molnupiravir is not repackaged ivermectin.
The two drugs have “dissimilar chemistry,” he said. “There is no way that Merck is doing this,” he said.
“Molnupiravir is a derivative of a nucleotide that, predictably, interferes with the RNA replication of the virus. While Ivermectin does also have a defined mechanism of action, BUT it’s against ion channels found in parasites,” Griffin said.
Paul Auwaerter, the Clinical Director of the Division of Infectious Diseases ( here ) at Johns Hopkins Medicine told Reuters via email that the only similarity the two drugs have is that they “have been brought to the FDA for market approval by the Merck Company.”
The professor pointed to structural differences between the two drugs, which can be explored in papers here and here and drug class differences. “Ivermectin is classified as a macrocyclic lactone. It is derived from Streptomyces avermitilis which is a bacterium." Molnupiravir, rather, is classified as a nucleoside analog (like some HIV medications) and works as an antiviral.

Ping for your interest
The most striking difference between these two drugs is in the proof the government requires for efficacy and safety. Nothing seems to be enough for Ivermectin.
Pfizer-Merck-tin
👍🏼
It doesn’t matter how related the two drugs are. We are being scammed, and sometimes KILLED, by Communists denying us CHEAP ivermectin.
two scientists
sounds like a consenscus
exactly
Molnupiravir is a ribonucleoside analog which is a building block that gets incorporated during covid-19 RNA replication, but because it has been slightly tweaked, it doesn’t function like the real nucleoside but instead prematurely halts the formation of the newly constructed virus’ RNA and thereby halts the virus replication before it’s completed ...
ivermectin functions by blocking part of the spike protein’s ACE receptor docking mechanism, preventing the covid virus from entering cells that are necessary for its subsequent replication ...

“Fact Check” Liberal propaganda. Always.
Dang.
The idiots just proved it is simply repackaged Ivermectin.
Could be true, but given the source (Reuters), I’ll await some believable journalists before I’d even read.
Fact remains that hundreds of thousands, (maybe even millions), of CCPVirus victims have died because Ivermectin was withheld, pending Merck’s hurried development of some other drug which doesn’t work as well but for which they can charge far more $$$.
How DO they live with themselves?
Too bad it is not Ivermectin. Then I would know it is safe and effective.
“Two disease experts have told Reuters that this is not the case and that the chemical make-up of the two drugs is different.”
This kills me. Of course it is different because it contains more than just Ivermectin, molnupiravir is a compound med with elemental zinc and a few other supplements (similar to part of the I-MASK protocol in a single pill).
They think we are stupid.
Very well. Very well, indeed. In mansions, with mistresses, driving fancy cars, vacations to the French Riviera. They live with themselves very well indeed. That is how.

Here are some link to some studies. Many are from back in the good old days when they were not trying to murder us....
Ivermectin fights RNA viruses (from 2016)
One just focusing on RNA virus Dengue (from 2018)
Another with the same premise but including Covid
Another prospective mechanism by which IVM blocks replication
They simply believe the modern “scientific” dogma that people are merely animals. Then you can do anything. Same thing goes for the globalists. Once you believe that people are no more than dogs there is no limit to the evils you can justify. Even Islam is preferable to this current “scientific” religion.
It is the most evil philosophy in history. You need only see the corpses strewn worldwide over the last century and a half to see its results.
Too bad. Maybe if it was it would work
