Merck, a company that manufacturers Ivermectin have also advised against its use in Covid-19 situations.
“Company scientists continue to carefully examine the findings of all available and emerging studies of Ivermectin for the treatment of Covid-19 for evidence of efficacy and safety. It is important to note that, to-date, our analysis has identified: No scientific basis for a potential therapeutic effect against Covid-19 from pre-clinical studies; No meaningful evidence for clinical activity or clinical efficacy in patients with Covid-19 disease, and; A concerning lack of safety data in the majority of studies,” the company said in a statement earlier this year.
RE: Merck, a company that manufacturers Ivermectin have also advised against its use in Covid-19 situations.
Of course, Merck is developing a similar ( and better, they claim ) drug called MOLNUPIRAVIR. Now in Phase III trials.
Merck’s hold on Ivermectin expired a long time ago and there are many generic manufacturers now.
That is true, Merck did issue that statement.
It’s also irrelevant.
At this point, ignoring the unambiguous and overwhelming evidence for the efficacy of ivermectin is as irrational as the worst of the anti-vax fearmongering.
