WE WERE LIED TO, BY TN GOVERNOR BILL LEE (R) AND OUR LEGISLATURE, THE MAJORITY (R).

TENNESSEANS WERE LIED TO, WE WERE PROMISED IVERMECTIN OTC, ITS NOT WHAT WE GOT.

WE WERE LIED TO, BY TENNESSEE GOVERNOR BILL LEE (R) AND OUR LEGISLATURE, THE MAJORITY (R). WHAT DO YOU DO? YOU GET MAD, YOU START SPREADING THE LIE THEY TOLD, AND YOU GET RELENTLESS. YOU REVOLT! AGE MAKES NO DIFFERENCE IF YOU CAN EMAIL, MAKE A PHONE CALL OR SEND A TEXT.

STROMECTOL OR IVERMECTIN WAS SUPPOSED TO GO OTC, JUST LIKE HUNDREDS OF FORMER PRESCRIPTION MEDICINES.

Tennessee law would allow over-the-counter sale of ivermectin
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/tennessee-law-would-allow-over-the-counter-sale-of-ivermectin

These once prescription medicines are sold on the shelves of many, many stores including grocery stores. I should know as I take Nexium, 40 mg per day.

Tricare Life removed it from their Formulary. I react to Prilosec and the other two left on the list. Encase you are not familiar with what Tricare Life coverage is, it is the Retired Military over 65 part B of Medicare. My husband spent 20 years in the USN, 1958-1978. Aboard Carriers, Flight Decks as his MOS was Avionics or Electronics repair. He retired with the Rank of SCPO or Senior Chief Petty Officer.

THIS DOES NOT FIT THE DEFINITION OF OTC, OTC MEANS ALL YOU NEED DO IS WALK IN AND PURCHASE LIKE YOU DO NEXIUM, CLARITIN, MUCINEX, BENADRYL, PRIOSLEC, ADVIL, TYLENOL, OR ANY OTHER OTC MED. IF BEING 18 NEEDS PROVEN, ASK FOR THEIR DRIVER’S LICENSE AS YOU DO TO PURCHASE ALCOHOL. THE ABOVE MEDICINES CAN BE DANGEROUS.

The new law states, “a pharmacist, in good faith, may provide Ivermectin to a patient who is eighteen (18) years of age or older pursuant to a valid collaborative pharmacy practice agreement containing a non-patient-specific prescriptive order and standardized procedures developed and executed by one (1) or more authorized prescribers. CHAIN STORES ARE REFUSING.

When I get home today I’m going to call an independent pharmacy in Lenoir City. When I contacted them in June they were ready, willing, and able to sell it. A few days later they started tap-dancing and promised return phone calls which never happened.

According to this, it should have been available without a prescription from a pharmacist as of April 22, 2022:


Drugs, Prescription - As enacted, authorizes a pharmacist to provide ivermectin to a patient, who is 18 years of age or older, pursuant to a valid collaborative pharmacy practice agreement containing a non-patient-specific prescriptive order and standardized procedures developed and executed by one or more authorized prescribers; enacts other related provisions. - Amends TCA Title 4; Title 14; Title 47; Title 53; Title 63; Title 68 and Title 71.

You may have to go to the pharmacy counter and ask the pharmacist for it. If you want it for an “off label use” such as Covid prevention, it may make matters easier to just tell the pharmacist you need it for roundworms or scabies.

Personally, I have seen no convincing evidence it helps much, if any, with Covid (unless one has worms, in which case it really dies help), but I know many here swear by it.

Aha. This may the sticky wicket:


“A new Tennessee law signed by Gov. Bill Lee during the recent legislative session created a pathway for pharmacists to dispense ivermectin directly to patients who would like to use the treatment for COVID-19.

The law authorizes pharmacists to provide ivermectin to patients 18 years of age or older through a “collaborative pharmacy practice agreement,” which is an agreement under which a pharmacist and a prescriber — such as a physician — establish procedures for the pharmacist to diagnose certain conditions and dispense related medications on their own. It does not require the prescriber ever to see the patient.

The law also directs the state pharmacy board to adopt rules to establish standard procedures for pharmacists providing ivermectin through a collaborative practice agreement, including rules to provide the patient with a standardized fact sheet regarding ivermectin — though such agreements can already be struck without the board’s rules.”

It looks like a doctor willing to prescribe Ivermectin to unseen patients must have an agreement with the pharmacy?

“It’s not right but if you really need it: Tractor Supply”

There is a new Fed.law going into affect next year that takes veterinary medicine (anti-biotics in particular) away from farmers and they will have to go through a veterinarian to get them.

Not sure if that will include such things as ivermectin.

Exactly...didn’t vote for Lee the first time, and won’t be voting for Lee the next time.

You may not have seen it but it does work.

A group of doctors is petitioning FDA to allow ivermectin as treatment for Covid.

Until I can walk into a Walgreen’s or grocery chain, pick up a bottle of Ivermectin off the shelf, and make my purchase thru self-checkout; it is NOT ‘OTC’.

Just order it from a pharmacy in India and have it on hand, I ordered it and have had it for 18 months in my medicine cabinet just in case!! I have been on D3, C, Quercetin, Zinc, and NAC, since this damn thing started NEVER miss a day and have not become sick!! We just had a bad break out where I work and I have been fine!! While you are ordering your ivermectin you might as well order some Zpack too!!! Takes a couple of weeks to get it but you need to have it on hand BEFORE you get sick!!

Nope, haven’t seen it. I have seen a lot of dubious claims. Yes, Frontline Doctors, etc., are making a mint off this.

It’s a cheap, safe drug. Why not let people use it? It probably doesn’t do much for Covid, but why not let people who believe in it have it?

The ‘Tennessee Stands’ and ‘Tennessee Conservative’ organizations will NOT care for this one bit.

Oh, yeah. I have a stack of that legal verbiage I got in an email from TPTB in Nashville. All that razzle-dazzle which says nothing. It’s disgusting.

Once again, they claim to make something easier but by the time they’ve added roll after roll of red tape (and added more government bureaucrats to the taxpayers’ payroll) they actually make it more difficult and confusing.

Maybe they can fool the people who don’t actually try to get ivermectin with this stunt, but there’s no fooling those who do. But they obviously don’t care a fig for them. Stinkers.

I’ve sen that report, and it also has some dubious claims, like the bogus, people suffering from veterinary ivermectin.

Health experts at CDC, NIH, FDA resigning in protest over those agencies following political science in their decrees.
