There has been a lot of controversy surrounding the off-label use of the anti-parasitic drug ivermectin as a treatment for COVID-19. There have been reports of calls to poison control after some Americans used a variation of over-the-counter horse de-wormer to treat themselves. Others have gotten a prescription of the drug for humans through their doctor.
But that appears to be on hold in Louisiana. The Louisiana Department of Health is ordering pharmacies not to fill those prescriptions unless there is a confirmed diagnosis of parasites, according to one source who spoke to me on condition of anonymity.
Some health professionals have taken note of anecdotal evidence that suggests the medication helps with inflammatory issues caused by COVID-19, but no official study has linked the treatment to success in fighting the novel coronavirus. Most public health officials are trying to dissuade the use of the drug in lieu of actual vaccination and other approved treatments.
Ivermectin has become a lightning rod in the COVID-19 political battle, as skepticism about the vaccine is convincing some Americans to seek alternative treatments. It has also led to multiple false reports of high overdose rates.
The Louisiana Department of Health getting involved is a surprise move, but it may be part of a growing trend as health officials worry that ivermectin use is taking the place of proven vaccines and treatments. There has been no official announcement of the state health department’s policy (yet), but that may change in the coming days if word begins spreading among doctors and patients.
Ping for your interest
Just tell them you are going to Ethiopia and you’re taking it to prevent Onchocerciasis.
Worked for me.
“Proven” treatments?!
If there were “proven” treatments (let alone vaccines) they’d be in actual use by doctors who would be happy to guide patients to working therapies.
That there’s a large push BY DOCTORS to prescribe them would suggest something else.
That the state DOH says they’re blocking dispensary BECAUSE they want to force a certain treatment (as unavailable as it is) is criminal, let alone inhumane.
My governor and others are parasites. Does that count?
Ok, Doctor writes a Rx and you get it shipped from an online pharmacy.
And since when do pharmacists get to overrule a doctor or force him to justify his diagnosis?
So in one day’s news:
1. Biden may limit Monoclonal Antibodies in GOP states.
2. PFE wants to vax 2-5 year-olds???
3. Louisiana State Dept of Health wants to cut supply of Ivermectin thru pharmacists?
Insane!
“And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him.”
Their days are numbered and they know it...
Chicago hospitals, doctors fight growing demand for ivermectin for COVID
Insane, is right.
They know it works and is destroying the ill effects of their PlanDEMIc and shots.
Can’t have that. 😡
[[There have been reports of calls to poison control after some Americans used a variation of over-the-counter horse de-wormer]]
“Some” very likely - 2-3 who bought the wrong over-the-counter ivermectin, with the two ingredients instead of straight ivemerctin
Exactly.
Probably one report, too.
Evil liars.
I tried to get an IVM prescription renewal for COVID from Push Health, but the doctor refused. He cited the retracted Egyptian study as proof of bad data. I pointed out the scores of other credible studies that show it is effective (and sent him a link to the meta analysis), but he didn’t respond. He said that Walgreens is no longer filling the prescription for IVM.
I was VERY disappointed that they got through to him and that Walgreens wouldn’t fill it (his claim).
Ivermectin disappears from pharmacies amid health warnings, but it's due to demand-based shortage
Unless the patient is a Musloid...
Chain pharmacies are Big Pharma owned, just like docs, nowadays.
Mail delivery pharmacies still have supply but are about 2 - 3 x pricier.
But, if it’s your only source (for tablets, rather than taking the paste) may be worth it.

Since we became a sick Communist state which devalues all human life-—except their own.
This qualifies as a civil war crime and should be treated as such.
It’s not like the scrip says what the meds are for. It just says “Give this guy 60 25mg tabs and write the following dose instructions on the bottle”
