New Hampshire residents may soon be able to receive Ivermectin from pharmacies without first getting a prescription or approval from a doctor.
Proposed legislation titled House Bill 1022 would allow pharmacists to dispense the drug, which some believe can treat COVID-19 even though it lacks approval for such use from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), by means of standing orders.
Under the law, pharmacists would be able to "dispense ivermectin under the delegated prescriptive authority of the physician or APRN (Advanced Practice Registered Nurses), specify a mechanism to document screening performed and the prescription in the patient's medical record, and include a plan for evaluating and treating adverse events," according to the bill.
"Any such prescription shall be regarded as being issued for a legitimate medical purpose in the usual course of professional practice."
The pharmacist would also be required to provide any patients who receive ivermectin with a "standardized information sheet written in plain language" that provides health care referral information and notes the importance of follow-up care.

According to the legislation, the measure would take effect 60 days after it was passed.
The FDA has not approved ivermectin for the treatment or prevention of COVID-19 in both humans and animals, according to its website. It is, however, "approved for human use to treat infections caused by some parasitic worms and head lice and skin conditions like rosacea."

Even before it was legalized for recreational use in Arizona billboards advertised Canabis gummis, pizza, burgers, you name it. No other “medicine” gets that treatment other than what fruit flavor gets added to the yucky spoonful.
but i need it for an ingrown hair- j/k- hate the stuff myself-
Why go to a pharmacist when you can buy it at Tractor Supply?

Exactly right. Any feed store will sell you a tube of Ivermectin. Yup, it has a picture of horse on the box, but it is the same drug made in the same factory as the human version. The tube is graduated in pounds. Dial in your weight and take that much.
Correct. Easier to get high or get opiods off the street, than to get easy aids that have been legally used for decades and even issued by the government.
PING
YEA! for the Live Free or Die state.
Not as dangerous as Remdesivir, the medical community approved and mandated treatment for Covid.
As my yankee nephew says wicked and bitching.
Make it true. Kill the VID.

A doctor’s approval!?
It’s not Tge do toes.
Pharmacies have been following orders to disregard doctors’ orders for ivermectin. Practicing medicine without a license
“ It’s not Tge do toes”
It’s not the doctors.
'some' being at least the entire nation of Japan...
It’s on our license plates.
Thanks.
I can usually figure out the typing glitches, but that one had me stumped.
