I’ve used it for nora virus. Others in the family had the virus and when I felt some early symptoms, I took ivermectin. I felt much better about 6 hours later.

I’ve also tried using it as a prophiylactic for things like hand foot and mouth disease. We watch our grandchildren 2 days per week and sometimes they have an illness. My question is how long is ivermectin effective as a prophylactic? How often do I need to take a pill?

Thanks @oakhilltop … I empathize with the bugs from grandchildren, it’s about the only time I get ill :). Great question, will pass it on to the team.

Hi @oakhilltop your questioned was covered in the show this week … did you manage to catch it? Here’s a link in case you need it https://imahealth.org/ivermectin-the-good-the-bad-and-the-emerging-science/

After reading about all the different MOA’s associated with IVM and watching a lot of Dr. Been videos way back in 2021 I decided that IVM was a better prophylactic measure than taking experimental mRNA vaccines. I secured a large supply of IVM from India in both 6mg and 12mg dosage for myself and friends and have been using it ever since. I take a 6mg tablet every other day, alternating with quercetin, as a general prophy for anything viral or potentially cancer related. I call it my trickle charge therapy. For my weight, a therapeutic dose would be 12mg, which is what I start taking whenever I start to feel like I might be coming down with something viral; sore throat, fatigue, achy joints, etc. Otherwise, the 6mg dose leaves me with about a 1.5mg residual dose on a constant basis based on a speculative half life of 24 hours. I am a walking experiment and hope that my judgment is accurate over the coming years. Being a vegan I am naturally pretty healthy so I have no way of determining whether taking IVM as a preventative measure is actually helping or hurting. I rarely take any form of medicine but have a regular daily regimen of supplements that I hope will continue to support my healthy lifestyle. I have been taking IVM for 5 years at this point and haven’t experienced any adverse effects. Based on my research, if I should ever get a cancer diagnosis, my first inclination would be to immediately start a protocol using IVM, FenBen and MoBen to mitigate the growth factors associated with the disease. I already take 10,000 IU daily of Vit D3 along with 125 micrograms of K2 which should help as well. I consider IVM to be a wonder drug with a ton of undiscovered potential for human health. In this particular case, I am literally betting my life on it.

Thanks for this very comprehensive breakdown @vegandan …

Dr. Joseph Varon joined The National News Desk for a quick primer on ivermectin — where it comes from, what it treats, and what its decades-long track record actually looks like. https://imahealth.org/what-is-ivermectin-a-quick-primer-with-dr-varon/

This week’s broadcast on ivermectin was communication genius. Thank you Dr Cole and Dr Varon. Thank you so much for “not hawking a product”. Hawking turns people off – you do not Hawk.

You use measured presentation with discernment – in doing so you evolve into whole body health with TRUST & ADVOCACY. Inspiring hope to patients & practitioners.

Again, with that good communication’s objectivity and truth, which I can somewhat attest to (my anecdotal use of ivermectin & other meds & products as a geek that I am – and very passionate person who wants to see my fellow man healed and not dying – weary of death all around me before folks natural time to die, also I am prolific listener to your weekly broadcasts & reader of your published info & info from medical outsiders (non IMA) for 5 or so years, personal observer of many in my community who use quality ivermectin & adhere to your protocols themselves- I have seen VAST success through most illnesses & that complex disease of cancer, among other complex illness & disease).

If I am not a medical person & can see & hear successes, imagine the successes of doctors. I do have great concern, as doctors have in Brazil. Any doctor or medical person “down there” are afraid of technology threads of text, emails, discussion if a doctor speaks of ivermectin and other meds which are possibly against government protocol. They feel the government will “come after them” when certain powers rotate back in political office. In Brazil 2 years ago (on IMA broadcast) the starting penalties were $10,000 if such “a thread” was discovered on a doctor by the government.
