“ The Aug. 23 decision requires the hospital to allow Dr. Fred Wagshul to administer 30mg of Ivermectin daily for three weeks to Smith.” - article
Seems the judge merely told the hospital to allow the doctor to administer the drug that the doctor wanted to administer, ivermectin.
Perfectly fine ruling, and the judge is not practicing medicine. He is allowing doctors to practice medicine with interference from hospital administrators.

I have the cow paste, in case of need. Dose by weight.

“The point to my post (which is not clear on details) is that sometimes the Hospital not the Doctor rules on what you can get.”
The thing is, I suspect most people here don’t mind an extra set of eyes on a prescription, as prescriptions can be lethal, just by the inclusion of an extra zero in the dosage, for example.
Even so, when it’s obviously a widely used treatment for the condition, although maybe not as much in the US, then maybe asking the doctor if he’s sure is fine, going beyond that, to prohibit its use is NOT fine.
Highest dosage protocol I have seen is .8mg/Kg where disease has progressed to critical. This would equate to .36mg/pound, thus, 30mg/day would not be excessive (we don't know the patient's weight).
In any event, ivermectin efficacy in late stage Covid 19 infections is a "Hail Mary Pass" at best, I wish him well...
Exactly!
“ It is my understanding that the FDA warned against using the ivermectin “cow paste”. The human usage of ivermectin is not the same and it has been used in humans for decades! Wth!”
Your understanding is incomplete.
The reason people are taking the horse paste (exact same medicine BTW) is because there is an illogical and unconscionable pushback against getting the pill form prescription. They (the swamp) is throwing everything they have at Ivermectin. Thinking people are asking why.
The horse paste is the same medicine and it works. More importantly, you can get it even in the face of an FDA/CDC moratorium. I suppose some would prefer to let people die, but I’m not of that persuasion.
I take the horse paste kind as a prophylactic. It’s easy to do, and with the vast history of how safe Ivermectin is, it should cause no alarm to anyone. Unless of course you are a big Pharma company with billions riding on selling your jabs.
I’ve had two incidents of being in close proximity to covid positive people and it appears my regimen is working as I’ve not caught the virus to this point. YMMV
Hospital: “Crank up that ventilator, we’ll show ‘em Ivermectin doesn’t work”.
The FDA is intentionally killing people. As crazy as it sounds, it is true.
Your doctor has has four years of medical college and usually at least another four years of postdoctoral specialty training, you have a Goggle search.
I think they are being stupid, but I’m not upset by people being allowed to be stupid once they have been told they are stupid. I also don’t want to have crossing gates at every intersection to make sure people don’t step out in front of cars.
The guy’s wife AND doctor made the treatment decision. The judge simply performed a ministerial decision to force the hospital to comply with the wife and doctor’s treatment decision.

This may be less about Right to Try than the PREP Act.
Health professionals are granted liability protection only if “approved countermeasures” are prescribed.
Three guesses, when faced with protecting their own hides or their patients, which choice most of our de facto NHS is making.
In this patients condition a dose 2-3 times the normal dose kick-starts the recovery process.
The judge didn’t get involved in deciding medical care. His doctor and wife did.
As opposed to insane governors telling them. Got it.
