    Dude, go into your local Tractor Supply, they have the stuff that is literally horse dewormer locked up. Give you two guesses as to why.

        Because people are literally taking horse dewormer. A compound meant specifically for horses.

          No, they’re not. They’re taking an FDA APPROVED Human drug that’s ALSO used in Veterinary medicine. Anybody that calls it “horse dewormer” is showing in incredible level of ignorance, and that all their info is coming from political stupidity. Wake up.

            Not FDA approved to treat Covid.

            this is what people are stealing

            That’s literally made to administer to a horse.

            Ibuprofen is approved for infants, but that doesn’t mean you can give an infant the same ibuprofen you take.

            Lol “wake up”. Okay, you gonna call me “sheeple” next?

              Not FDA approved to treat Covid.

              Doesn’t have to be, that’s what off label use is, and there was no such thing as FDA approved meds to treat COVID then, nice try LOL.

              Showing a picture of one that’s sold at Tractor Supply FOR horses, in no way changes the FACT that Ivermectin is an FDA Approved Human use drug.

              Ibuprofen is approved for infants, but that doesn’t mean you can give an infant the same ibuprofen you take.

              Actually you can, if you’re capable of adjusting the dosage correctly, as it’s the exact same drug.

                Same drug, different concentrations. I can do math, but the types to steal horse dewormer tend to have trouble with things like fractions. Also, human ivermectin isn’t generally administered in a paste via syringe.

                Listen, you can argue this point until you’re blue in the face. It won’t change the fact that people are stealing a compound specifically manufactured for use in treating horses for worms.

                  Nobody’s arguing but you, nobody is talking about or caring about its veteinary use than you, nobody’s talking about people “stealing it” other than you, nobodys talking about pills vs paste other than you. Thats all your rants that are complely irrelevant to the conversation at hand. Nice try.

                    Lol, you seriously came back to a nine day old thread to rant about how no one cares about my rants.

                    Simmer down, Francis.
