One thing I noted on this graphic was where it talked about taking Ivermectin with grapefruit juice or even on empty stomach....and to avoid fatty foods.

Somewhere I read or saw that you should take Ivermectin with food...good fats not a problem...Why? It helps the Ivermectin to permeate the blood barrier...Otherwise if you take on empty stomach, it’s function is to work on parasites.

Dunno if that is accurate...

Curious, why grapefruit juice?

For Ivermectin to be allowed for treatment in U.S. hospitals, the FDA has to clear it for approval. That approval requires a multi-million dollar process of clinical trials. The money for such trials has to come from someone with the money to finance them. It could come from the U.S. government if the pharmaceuticals are unwilling to finance them. Dropping a huge amount of money for Ivermectin has lost its support when U.S. drug companies have learned the following:

“New Delhi: The Directorate General of Health Services (DGHS) under the Union Health Ministry has revised the COVID-19 management guidelines and decided against the usage of certain strong medicines for mild or asymptomatic cases of coronavirus. According to the new guidelines issued on May 27, the health ministry has written to the doctors’ community to drop drugs like hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, doxycycline, zinc, multivitamins etc from prescription.”

Ten Common Questions (and Their Answers) About Off-label Drug Use

This is about the PREP Act. Liability protection is provided only to covered countermeasures. Ivermectin is not a covered countermeasure.

Using Ivermectin to treat Covid would be an “off label” use, but doctors in hospital settings use drugs off label all the time. It’s a common and accepted practice. So I’m not buying the argument that hospitals are forced into denying patients Ivermectin because it would be an off label use. They could give it if they wanted to...they just don’t want to.

I thought India was big on Ivermectin.

“Ivermectin can really be the game-changer against COVID-19.” He reported seeing cancer patients “radically improve their shortness of breath and oxygenation” within 24 to 48 hours of their first dose.

There are many studies that show that Ivermectin also works to quell some cancers. So does HCQ...and they know it. Can't have that getting out. If you think that none of this has made sense...just consider that. If thousands of cancer patients suddenly showed improvement after using those cheap, widely available drugs, the game would be up.

Grapefruit juice speeds up absorption. It can be dangerous when taken with some drugs as they can be absorbed too rapidly.

Interesting. Do you have a list of the drugs with which grapefruit juice-enhanced absorption would be dangerous?

I am asking because it seems to me that if a person was experiencing symptoms from COVID, they would want the grapefruit juice. However, they might be on other medications—symptoms relieving drugs, or the other drugs on FLCCC protocols which might not react well to grapefruit juice.

With preventative protocols, maybe not as important.

Again, I read/watched that need to take with food—and fats OK—like Vit D3 where fats actually enhance absorption.

Some states in India adopted Ivermectin and others didn’t.

Why are hospitals denying known life saving drugs? It’s simple.

They are murdering people for their communist political agenda. This is not hyperbole, it’s fact. Arguing otherwise is madness. What in the name of the lord is wrong with our country that we are putting up with this?

In times past those in healthcare committing these crimes would have been arrested or worse as no sane community would put up with this for one second.

Thanks for the link. In your link, if I read it right, this paragraph explains the case against Ivermectin:

“Obtaining a new FDA approval for a medication can be costly and time-consuming. To add additional indications for an already approved medication requires the proprietor to file a supplemental drug application, and, even if eventually approved, revenues for the new indication may not offset the expense and effort of obtaining approval.8 Finally, generic medications may not have the requisite funding foundations needed to pursue FDA-approval studies.8 For these financial reasons, drug proprietors may never seek FDA approval for a new drug indication.”

The linked article makes it clear that using drugs off label is a common practice.

What you've written is not true. Ivermectin is FDA approved and has an excellent safety record. Physicians have been writing off label prescriptions routinely until Covid came along and then it became political. 'Special rules' were created to BLOCK PATIENTS from obtaining treatment at the same time we were told that Covid had a monstrous death rate and DOOM! DOOM! DOOM!

So Fauci took a failed drug from an African drug trial. Remdesivir was withdrawn from it's drug trial in Africa with the statement 'risks outweigh the benefits' and 53% of trial participants receiving it had already died. It shuts down organs, including heart, kidneys etc. SO THAT is the drug that Fauci chose to supplant Ivermectin. Fauci and co ran Ivermectin through some stupidly designed, limited, small trials and by ending the trials quickly and overlooking miserable results, declared it THE DRUG for Covid.

I've heard people say you can't repurpose Ivermectin for something never trialed. Those same people are fine with a failed Ebola drug repurposed without adequate testing, in the face of ghastly side effects (organ failure).

Portions of India were rescued by Ivermectin. This part you quote is simply India's traitors deciding to kill people: "According to the new guidelines issued on May 27, the health ministry has written to the doctors’ community to drop drugs like hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, doxycycline, zinc, multivitamins etc from prescription.”

The words, “ To add additional indications for an already approved medication requires the proprietor to file a supplemental drug application.” has the words, “additional indications.” I interpret that as meaning, different remedies than the one already established. In other words, the different treatment for another illness, still has to be proven that it works. This is why India has dropped Ivermectin from its treatment for COVID.

I discussed the matter of using Ivermectin with my doctor. You should too. I was told that Kaiser Permanente does not allow its physicians to prescribe Ivermectin for the treatment of COVID because it has not been cleared by the FDA. I got the same words from their pharmacist. The subject of horse paste came up and it brought lots of laughter.

Doctors who are treating their patients with Ivermectin are treading in dangerous waters. I can imagine that if it fails to keep a patient from death, there would be a career killing lawsuit and loss of license. I can imagine the dollars Kaiser would lose.
