I have been taking Ivermectin twice weekly for three years because I am in large crowds and around a lot of people all the time. I felt that using it prophylactically would be of benefit. The biggest benefit I’ve seen, aside from not having cold or flu for three years, is that I have not had one cold sore since about three months after I began taking it! I used to get 2-3 cold sores a year. I’ll continue taking it simply for that reason alone.

EXCELLENT news! Ivermectin is the little engine that could.

I suggest we all stock up!

Even if expired, if not exposed to moisture, its potency remains. Do not refrigerate.

I have a friend who has used ivermectin with considerable success to treat the consequences of the shingles vaccine she was given to treat shingles - a vaccine which almost killed her.

My girlfriend developed shingles INSIDE HER THROAT. The doctors were shocked and treated it with all sorts of things. IVM was banned here (France) and I had still not sourced my own (I have since).

Of course, her condition had absolutely nothing to do whatsoever with her having been bullied into taking three of "those injections" just before. It was pure coincidence. Just want to make that clear.

I do absolutely believe ivermectin may work well against what we call "shingles."

My story (from the United States) is somewhat similar:

WHAT I DID: I personally treated myself early for shingles with the generic version of the brand name drug Zovirax (generic name is acyclovir) 14 years ago ... i was showing the symptoms of what we call "shingles" ... i admit i was a bit scared of course ... but i didn't panic and run off to my doctor (although i did speak to a close friend of mine who is an M.D.) ... Before the newer drug Valtrex (valacyclovir) came to the market, there was a closely-related off-patent generic drug called acyclovir (brand Zovirax). ... ***Notice the similarity of the generic names "valacyclovir" and "acyclovir"*** ...

Well, i happen to have on hand a supply of acyclovir past its expiry date ... but i rarely throw old drugs in the trash ... so i started taking a very heavy dose of acyclovir .. IIRC the dosage was something like 800mg of acyclovir 2 or 3 times per day ... I EXPERIENCED AN IMMEDIATE IMPROVEMENT ... the affected band of my chest stopped spreading to new areas ... the little water-filled blister-like sores on my chest began to dry up on the 1st day of the drug, healed IIRC in approx 4 days, and were COMPLETELY GONE in about a week.

I was never keen on the shingles jabs. and now i rest easy knowing that i have natural immunity against what we call "shingles" hopefully for some number of years into my future. So i am a firm believer in early treatment whether with ivermectin or acyclovir.

MOTIVE: Also, one of the main motives for Big Pharma's introduction of Valtrex (valacyclovir) was the fact that the patent on the older pill Zovirax (acyclovir) had expired in the U.S. So while they had been able to charge very high prices for Zovirax for 7 years (or is it 14 years, i can't remember if it's 7 or 14 years), once the patent on Zovirax expirede, pharma could only charge PENNIES per pill. So then they tweaked the formulations just a wee bit to become "Valtrex" (valacyclovir) so it became eligible for a NEW PATENT for more years, so then Pharma could again charge HUGE prices for the very similar drug Valtrex (generic valacyclovir). Then pharma encourages the doctors to write prescriptions for the newer patent-protected (expensive) drug, and the cheap though effective drug acyclovir is intentionally de-emphasized and even denigrated. That is their business model!

DISCLAIMER: Not saying this would work for everyone. I'm only saying that acyclovir this worked very well for me. Nipped my early shingles in the bud. And I treated it EARLY.

Was similar to how HCQ nipped my "Covid" in the bud in about one day back in November of 2020 before the milder omicron strain predominated. Early treatment with cheap old generic drugs in both instances!

Yes, Ivermectin is just amazing. There is another one that has been under the radar of the medical people: BHT. It can end shingles within days if made into a balm. Discovered in 1975 ( https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC429451/ ) and purposely forgotten since. To make a shingles balm you mix a teaspoon of BHT powder with two teaspoons of coconut oil and warm it up until it dissolves.

A while back my skin started to burn and my wife who has had shingles said it sounded like shingles which I’ve never had. I know how bad shingles can be I’ve seen it in others. I took a dose of ivermectin horse paste and went to bed waking up next morning with zero symptoms. Ivermectin is antiviral. Shingles is a virus. At this point I see no convincing proof that viruses cause illness. Viruses may be orthogonal to illness. I don’t know and won’t say. But taking ivermectin and the disappearing of my ominous skin condition coincided.

Yep if people routinely got rid of their parasites they would rid their body of so many illnesses as the body would be free to fight off many, many things even cancer. But goodness this is a BIG secret. Please don't let anyone know. Big Pharma will lose so much money and we don't want them to go broke. Better for people to get sick and die than Big Pharma lose money.

Where is everyone sourcing their ivm from at the moment? I've used allday pharmacy in India in the past but last two tries have been over-complicated and it's made me hesitant to use them again. There seem to be a lot of links posted on X but it's hard to know if they're for genuine ivm. TIA!

I would add that if your vitamin D level is 50 ng/mL or higher, you most likely will never get shingles.

This is really good news. Thank you for sharing this. I haven't taken the shingles vaccine, but I've been wondering if I should. I'd much rather take Ivermectin.

Seems to be sudden ads for shingles after the clot shot. Industry knew.

Some rashes can be a Vitamin D deficiency on my experience arriving in winter.

Ivermectin has many benefits to help the body detox, as these bumps are the body trying to eliminate something.
