“Horse Dewormer” to Cancer Research

“Horse Dewormer” to Cancer Research
My personal thoughts about today’s headline from the NIH.
I can never look back over the past five years without remembering how some doctors pleaded with authorities to allow early treatment for COVID. They weren’t just ignored; they were smeared, attacked, and in some cases, stripped of their medical licenses.
They lost income.
Some lost colleagues.
Some even lost family relationships.
And some lost their lives…
All because they believed early treatment, including the use of repurposed drugs like ivermectin, could save lives.
Instead, ivermectin was dismissed as a “horse dewormer” by institutions, government officials, and the traditional media. Far too many people were convinced the only option was hospital care and new jabs that did not have the long safety history of drugs like ivermectin.
Medicine lost something in that moment.
We lost doctors who were willing to challenge administrative narratives. Doctors who believed in treating the patient in front of them, not applying a one-size-fits-all protocol. The kind of doctors you want in your corner. The kind who stand up for you when others won’t.
Trust in medicine has not recovered.
So it’s hard not to notice this headline:
“National Cancer Institute Launches Preclinical Study on Ivermectin as Potential Cancer Treatment.”
Interesting.
Dr. Marik and our wonderful IMA fellows were speaking about repurposed drugs long before it was acceptable to do so, and at great cost.
Now we’re seeing research streams open up.
Human trials using repurposed drugs are beginning in Florida for cancer.
Not COVID.
Cancer.
So I have a few questions:
-
Will we see apologies (and action) to reinstate the doctors who were punished?
-
Will the research now be conducted with full transparency and intellectual honesty?
-
What does this shift say about how medical dissent is handled?
I am genuinely glad to see research moving forward. Repurposed drugs deserve study.
But we also deserve accountability, in my view this will help to build trust and drive “Honest Medicine”

Last time formal research was conducted on ivermectin for Covid, it was not for the purpose of confirming efficacy, but rather for debunking it through poor research. I don’t trust the NIH’ motives in conducting ivermectin research on cancer..
-
I think we will have to watch with interest, but with human trials taking place in Florida with cancer patients … that may influence them to do some honest research. Let’s watch carefully.

And I might be dying of urinary bladder cancer that has not responded to traditional treatments (now looking at intensive radiation and chemo and bladder removal if that is unsuccessful) because I cannot afford the alternative medicine regimen recommended. The last batch I bought came from India and had no apparent effect. For all I know the Ivermectin and Fenbendazole I got were placebos.
-
Those medical professionals are certainly deserving of an apology but I am not optimistic about that prospect. I have managed to regain trust in individual practitioners, but not in the institutions themselves. I am uncertain if that trust can ever be fully restored.
-
I suppose trust is always restored one person at a time. So many institutions will take years to gut and restart.

Back in 2024 (Nov) I was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer and placed on AS (Active Surveillance). Instead of “waiting”, of which I am __not a fan__ in any situation, I began to dig into specific steps I could take — take informed action to initiate an offense instead of waiting and losing ground.
As an aside, I have been tracking my PSA since way before it was ever de rigueur — starting in 2011 — where I have been above 4.0 since 2015. My reasoning is the failure of my “civilian” medical support being totally unaware of my exposure(s) relative to my service in the US Air Force working on the flightline supporting multiple TS/SCI aircraft. Anyway…
I discovered the ISOM Protocol. After several other deep dives into both the specifics of the protocol and other ancillary or complementary protocols, approaches, or supplements, I spoke with my wife and we both agreed I’d use the “Low-grade” approach; I also chose to select elements I had access to without difficulty (e.g. cannot get IV Vitamin C, do not have access to a Hyperbaric Oxygen therapy (HBOT)). I completed the protocol in early 2025 and waited for my Comparative MRI and Biopsy at the end of last year.
And, to my surprise — and the lack of curiosity by my medical team — with the results of my Comparative MRI and Biopsy, I experienced some astonishing results! Ok, for me, it’s not a “high-5” moment, but, I can see an improvement I will take as a win. As follows:
– One of the lesions (Lesion #1: PI-RADS 3, measuring 0.6cm) disappeared and is determined to be “Benign with acute inflammation”
– The other lesion (Lesion #2: Gleason 6 (3+3), measuring 1.1cm) is now determined to be “Focal high-grade PIN (HGPIN)”Like I’ve said above, I’ll take informed action, review results, and improve. I see a positive change / result, and I have initiated (more than 2/3 the way through to date) my second round of the ISOM Protocol — with some additional elements I believe may help take aim at Lesion #2.
I’ve taken the time to document my experience so far. I also shared with Dr. Makis, who was kind enough to post my document on his Substack. I am happy to share with anyone — especially those who are involved in research — involving Ivermectin, Bendazoles (I used Mebendazole), and especially the ISOM Protocol. Just thought I’d share…

Every new study using repurposed drugs must be scrupulously assessed for accuracy and honesty through objective peer review. I won’t trust any pronouncement that have not had a fair analysis by the professionals in the field who can ask the right questions. I remember all the fake IVM studies that used the wrong timing, the wrong dosing, and the wrong ingredients to disprove the hypothesis that it was both safe and effective in treating Covid. That kind of trickery should not be tolerated and must be removed from any consideration for truth. Let the honest research begin and see where it leads. Breakthroughs in science are happening daily and the future of medicine is promising for the ultimate defeat of most common diseases.

That’s a good point. We should find a way to reallocate funding authority from institutions directly to the populace. These funds originate from taxpayers, and as such, the public should have a direct influence on their allocation.

If anyone is interested in “reading up” on a paper published in NIH PubMed Central, the following has a nice, easy to read, description of the “roots” related to what Ivermectin may be capable of doing with respect to cancer(s). This was probably one of my first papers, of many, I read through back in 2024… this was published in 2020:
Ivermectin, a potential anticancer drug derived from an antiparasitic drug
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7505114/
Read for yourself… I’m not placing any weight, or attempting to force anything, just providing a source I enjoyed reading while learning more about the whole “hub-bub”… 🙂

Ivermectin, a potential anticancer drug derived from an antiparasitic drug - PMC
Ivermectin has powerful antitumor effects, including the inhibition of proliferation, metastasis, and angiogenic activity, in a variety of cancer cells. This may be related to the regulation of multiple signaling pathways by ivermectin through PAK1 ...

Thank you!

@Snowlark Great reference, and of course, it’s reference 734 of 1457 references in Dr. Marik’s Cancer Care Monograph.

Helen, you asked:
-
“Will we see apologies (and action) to reinstate the doctors who were punished?
-
Will the research now be conducted with full transparency and intellectual honesty? “
-
There is one answer to both questions, and that is: Emphatically, that answer is in the NEGATIVE , until that is, the malfeasants in our society face the law, the consequences of their actions, and are removed from our midst . We all, by now, have seen the latest Epstein files dump pinpointing the pivotal role of Dr Bill Gates ( remember, the STD-positive guy) in the last plandemic. Dr Gates and Bourla (Pfizer CEO) are now facing the courts in the Netherlands because of a case initiated by the family of six ‘vaccine’-injured plaintiffs ( one of the six plaintiffs already died from the jab), the Netherlands, not America! Let us start a petition

I trust Dr. Google a whole lot more than I ever would Dr. Gates.

I’d be very surprised if there is more than limited accountability. Maybe a few small fish get fried to attempt to placate the public. Until we’re able to get rid of judges who block lawsuits for damages I’m not betting on it. Too many Republicrats are beholden to the pharmaceutical industry to expect any legislative changes like making drug manufacturers liable for damages again. Acceptance of drugs like ivermectin by the mainstream is still grudging at best. I don’t honestly know how we get back to giving MDs the a autonomy to diagnose and treat patients as they see fit; I doubt very much I’ll see it in what remains of my lifetime. I’m sorry to be such pessimist, but RFK, Jr. is one guy, and we’re talking about a deeply entrenched, corrupt machinery he’s working against. (Here’s a humorous aside: I’ve been seeing an integrative practitioner for IV high-dose C/DMSO infusions. I was talking with the technician recently, telling her about purchasing repurposed drugs from India, and she said she was still using the “horse paste.” I’ll take accurately dosed pills intended for human consumption, thank you!)

I understand your pessimism, @flatulus maximus but I am heartened by the wins that have been made to date. You will be glad about the latest Bill being proposed by Senator Rand Paul to End Federal Liability Shield for Vaccine Manufacturers… I have a discussion started on this; please join in :
