Doctors with real names and credentials or internet doctors?

Pay no attention to the Vietnam era Freeper veterans who tell stories about the bowls of HCQ tablets sitting on the mess hall tables like candy.

Or the Lupus patients who call it their "daily candy."

Studies have shown that drug (HCQ) causes serious heart rhythm problems and other safety issues when using when used to treat the virus

Those studies administered massive overdoses of HCQ.

Off label use of medications to treat illnesses outside of what those medications were originally designed for is nothing new and has been around forever.

With covid all of the sudden off label use is being treated as the equivalent of leaching. Something is very wrong I don’t know if it’s stupidity, conspiracy or both. Most likely it’s both.

“Ivermectin is a medication only approved by the FDA to treat certain parasitic infections, head lice or skin conditions such as rosacea.”

It is SOOOOOOO dangerous that they prescribe it for “HEAD LICE”.

This might kill you, but at least you won’t have LICE.

How STUPID do they think we are?

Okay some, even here on FR (provaxers) actually are that STUPID.

From the article:Doctors to the left of me, doctors to the right of me. Each an "expert." I'm to the point where I don't trust any doctors or the FDA or the CDC. Too many people have weaponized the CCP virus, the variants, etc. I trust my common sense backed up by my own research.

“there is no well-designed scientific study that shows ivermectin effectively prevents or treats COVID-19 at any stage of the illness”

“well-designed scientific study”

He can REJECT any study that HE thinks isn’t “well-designed”.

LIES!, LIES, and more LIES!

My read on ivermectin is that non-medical people who give it to themselves are taking too much of it in my non-medical opinion.

Less problems with using it under a qualified doctor’s supervision in my non-medical opinion.

Corrections, insights welcome.

Actually, in Vietnam we Marines took Chloroquine and Primaquine Phosphate, “Big Orange Malaria Pills”.

When I got medevaced, the kid on the hospital cot next to mine was told, “Son, you are allergic to your malaria pill. We are sending you home.”

“Yippee!” I thought, “I’m next!” No such luck. 13 days later they sent me back to my unit.

https://www.rxlist.com/aralen_vs_plaquenil/drugs-condition.htm

“Are Chloroquine (Aralen) vs. Hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil) the Same Thing?

Aralen (chloroquine phosphate) and Plaquenil (hydroxychloroquine) are antimalarial drugs used to treat and to prevent malaria, a disease caused by parasites, which enter the body through the bite of a mosquito.

Both chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine are under investigation for treatment of the COVID-19 coronavirus disease. Study results on their effectiveness have been mixed.

Aralen is also used to treat infections caused by amoebae.

Plaquenil is also used to treat symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis and discoid or systemic lupus erythematosus.

Aralen and Plaquenil are available as generics.”

“In one recent case, an adult became disoriented”

ONE CASE? Anecdotal, maskhole.

“Disoriented” ? Pull this drug off the market NOW! /s
