There was a lot of research on the repurposing the drug known as phenytoin( Dilantin) a long time ago. When they find something extra that ivermectin does that is more useful in some medical condition...some pharmaceutical chemist will synthesize a newer agent that is more potent than ivermectin and try and bring it to market....then the politicking and influence peddling, and data manipulation, and lobbying begins...reminiscent about the old observation about not wanting to see how sausage and laws are made...
