Poison Control Centers Are Fielding A Surge Of Ivermectin Overdose Calls

Poison control centers are seeing a dramatic surge in calls from people who are self-medicating with ivermectin, an anti-parasite drug for animals that some falsely claim treats COVID-19.

According to the National Poison Data System (NPDS), which collects information from the nation's 55 poison control centers, there was a 245% jump in reported exposure cases from July to August — from 133 to 459.

Meanwhile, emergency rooms across the country are treating more patients who have taken the drug, after being persuaded by false and misleading information spread on the internet, by talk show hosts and by political leaders. Most patients are overdosing on a version of the drug that is formulated to treat parasites in cows and horses.

This is from their link to the Mississippi notice:

• At least 70% of the recent calls have been related to ingestion of livestock or animal formulations of ivermectin purchased at livestock supply centers.
• 85% of the callers had mild symptoms, but one individual was instructed to seek further evaluation due to the amount of ivermectin reportedly ingested.
• No hospitalizations due to ivermectin toxicity have been directly reported to the
Mississippi Poison Control Center or the Mississippi State Department of Health.

A grand total of ONE CASE was referred for further evaluation, and ZERO CASES were hospitalized, for an entire state of ‘rednecks’ who are taking the animal form of Ivermectin. Says a lot about how safe the drug is.

As we have seen over the last week, there is a push to highlight ivermectin problems. Let us assume all are true.

Then they are happening because people have to resort to the feed store to get it. If they really wanted to help Ivermectin could be prescribed by a doctor. That way doseage would be controlled and set to human levels.

[fluorescence]

Whatever real calls they even get are probably people with no symptoms, who got spooked by the MSM agitprop.

[UnwashedPeasant]

They double down on these elaborate lies, then they are shocked when people are skeptical about the vaccines.

[metmom]

If the medical community prescribed Ivermectin, this wouldn’t be a problem.

[tired&retired]

There had been one in the previous year, now there are two. An increase of 100%.

[PROCON]

You're absolutely right, if the politicians really cared about our health they would encourage Ivermectin's use and allow Doctors to prescribe it.

But they don't so it's not about our health, it's about getting the jab and complete obedience.

If NPR says it’s true, it must be. /s

> from 133 to 459. Hmmm, how many fentanyl overdoses? More than 36,000 people died from overdoses involving synthetic opioids in 2019.
You are assuming that they didn't lie about the 459 number. They probably did.

None of the above seem to be leading to deaths and very few leading to major cases. Not sure how all the cleaners are connected to covid. Just because we're in the days of covid?

Come on man, just because 3,700,000,000 humans have taken Ivermectin without any dangerous reactions,and Ivermectin won a Nobel prize in science in the year 2015, doesn’t mean humans have taken it. Haven’t you learned anything yet. You can only get your information form ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC,all other sources are misinformation.

[dangus]

So does the 435 cases fielded by poison control mean 435 people were poisoned by Ivermectin? Or that 435 snowflakes and Karens found Ivermectin and felt an uncontrollable urge to contact poison control?

“I I I I found some Ivermectin on my brother-in-law’s ranch, and I I I think he may have taken some because he wasn’t wearing a mask.”

Folks, 435 is one Karen per congressional district.

How much of this apple Ivermectin paste do I put on my sandwich?

How much do you weigh?

Now look at the chart on the box.

It is not exact human to animal but close enough.

I don’t know about the cleaners/disinfectants - it doesn’t appear to be that much off than normal. Here is a 2019 report: https://piper.filecamp.com/uniq/9ZN62pw4DkShNNNS.pdf
