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.

CindyAZ, what dosage are you taking? How many Milligrams per dose.

Expand full comment

For my weight the prophylactic dose is 15mg. Since I only have 6mg and 12mg tablets I have been taking 18mg.

How do you get it, where do you get it?

Interesting site. Reviews are very good. However, you’re required to upload a valid prescription. Where do I find a doctor who will prescribe Ivermectin?

Expand full comment

No, just skip that part. They don’t require a script.

Petmectin - no rx needed at virex.health

Little confused about Virex Health. When you search it, it talks about it being a biotech diagnostics company - any thoughts on this? Does its Petmectin seem to work like IVM?

Expand full comment

The PetMectin is Ivermectin. You can get it without a prescription for “pets”.

Yeah, but it is kind of strange to have no info on a website when there is a company with that name that doesn't do that. I don't mind vet preps - that's all there was to use at the beginning. My concern is are the potencies what they say - I got mine from India and had that concern.

Check out the Substack:

Second Smartest Guy in the World

He writes a lot about IVM and Fenbendazole. As well as links to Virex. I purchase mine from India.

There was a study done, don’t recall where I read it and they tested several different brands of IVM for potency. I stick to one of those they said tested correctly for the amount specified.

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.

You can refrigerate and I've done it for years. Exclude moisture and all chemicals last longer at lower temps

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.

Expand full comment

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!

Shingles, cancer, MS, head aches.... Heck there was even a study years ago how they autopsied ten MS patients and all ten had parasites in them. ALL TEN.

Once you get rid of parasites your body is free to fight off other health issues and a lot of times just recovers. Nice to see the rest of the world waking up to this. But Big Pharma ain't gonna like this.

There is a substack devoted to discussion of the anti-parasitic AND anti-cancer drug fenbendazole, links below, which has uses both for humans and animals:

https://fenbendazole.substack.com/

https://fenbendazole.substack.com/p/cancer-deworming-and-fenbendazole/comments

The use of anti-parasitics, besides being able to get rid of worms, apparently may have the added benefit of activating one's "cell mediated immunity" (which fights cancer cells and "virus" infected cells). If true, this is HUGE.

Ivermectin, like fenbendazole, is an antiparasitic for treating cattle. While I myself have not taken ivermectin or fenbendazole or the similar mebendazole, interestingly, there are numerous studies demonstrating that IVM works well as an antiviral against the bioweapon.

Hydroxychloroquine, like fenbendazole/mebendazole and ivermectin, is also an antiparasitic treatment used safely for decades against the parasite malaria. HCQ, interestingly, if used as an early treatment with some zinc, also works well against the bioweapon.

So here we have here 3 antiparasitic drugs -- Fenben, IVM, and HCQ -- which (1) fight parasites/worms/malaria, and (2) may also be effective against "viruses" and cancer ... This would be GREAT news for people ... because these are old, off-patent, inexpensive generic drugs ... and this is TERRIBLE news for Big Harma for the same reason: these are old, off-patent, cheap generic drugs ... bad for the bottom line ... and means fewer customers for pricier treatments at places like Sloan Kettering.

It seems then that these antiparasitic drugs may somehow (a) upregulate the arm of the immune system known as "TH1" (cell mediated immunity that fights cancer cells and "virus" infected cells), and/or (b) downregulate the arm of the immune system known as "TH2" (humoral immunity). So they may act as immuno-modulators to optimize or improve immune function. (Many people have an overactive TH2 "humoral immunity" and an underactive TH1 "cell mediated immunity.")

The immuno-modulating benefit of anti-parasitic drugs may occur even if one does not have actual parasites.

The wormwood is another one worth investigating.

https://www.eistria.com/en/wormwood-a-super-plant-that-kills-parasites-and-fights-cancer Like hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), wormwood is anti-malarial and also may be anti-cancer, and was for some period of time banned in the U.S.A.

Safe ... minimal side effects versus horrible side effects for chemo/radiation, often causing more pain and suffering.

May not work for everyone ... but sure is worth looking into.

I’ve been taking Fenbendozole for about 6 mos per the Joe Tippens Protocol to hopefully keep my cancer in remission. So far so good. And no side effects. I just had a liver function test and AST/ALT are great at around 20.

A family member was given a script for the shingles drug you've discussed. He usually doesn't have to pay for Rx's but had to pay for this one. I asked what the cost would have been without insurance and it would have been about $900.

Expand full comment

$900 for generic acyclovir (brand name: Zovirax)? That is quite high imho. Or might it have been for valacyclovir (brand name: Valtrex)?

Also, in which country was your family member charged such a price, just curious? I'm located in the United States (near New York).

In my opinion, health insurance in the U.S. is much like a criminal racket. The high prices charged to those WITHOUT insurance, as compared to the much lower prices for those WITH insurance, is like the criminal who forces a shop owner to pay for "protection" or else the mafia goons will come back at night and smash the shop's windows.

IMO, the prices charged to the uninsured should be no higher than the prices paid out under an insurance policy. Unfortunately, that is not how the health insurance scam operates. 😔

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.

Where would someone get BHT from?

Jan 20·edited Jan 20

It's commercially available as a food additive. Companies selling chemicals will have it. Salve making stores might also have it. The cosmetics industry uses it a lot. You can also find it in vitamin stores. They package it in small capsules but they do dilute it with rice flower so you have always this "sand like" rice flower in there. It's very cheap as a raw chemical and 30g will be more than you ever need. Toxicity is low but you should stay below 3g per day. With the coconut BHT salve suggested above you will typically apply 0.1g when using normal amounts even over a large skin area. It's plenty safe and I don't know anybody who saw any side-effects at all. It's a strong antiviral for any lipid coated virus.

Thank you! I'll probably get some to have on hand.

Expand full comment

yes, have it at home and apply it on the first onset of symptoms. You can use it even if you are not sure what that rash is. I saw some BHT on ebay.

I take Lysine daily as it has stopped the canker sores (inside the mouth sores, not to be confused with cold sores, but i think all, including shingles have a similar immune system deficiency origin) that had plagued me for 45+ years.

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.

Try Dr. Lee Merritt to get rid of parasites, or even get your hands on ivermetin as sometimes I see people advertising on the comment section of Rumble to sell an anti-parasitic med. I also think there is a state in America that it is over the counter. I can't remember what state it was, but you may be able to contact a pharmacy in the state and have it mailed to you. https://rumble.com/v1pd6x9-dr-lee-merritt-parasite-protocol-the-new-parasite-paradigm-october-20th-202.html?mref=6zof&mrefc=2

Then you could try the Front Line doctors at FLCC protocol https://covid19criticalcare.com/treatment-protocols/i-recover/

Also Dr. Robert Morse at drmorsetv.com You have to sign in his site. He is more of a holistic doctor and sells and anti-parasitic herbal formula. r . https://drmorse.tv/video/are-you-vaccinated/comment-page-1/#comment-2584

Hi Richard, I get mine from Virex.health in the US. I've used them a few times and they ship to me here in London. They also do Fenbendazole and Doxycycline although they can't send the latter to the UK because our ever so caring Govt have a ban on imports of antibiotics. But I've had no issues getting the Ivermectin and Fenbendazole. By the way they call them Petmectin and Petdazole. But don't be fooled, these are human grade drugs. It's just to get around the US regulators.
