Just FYI, ivermectin is also a human dewormer, ir is very used in poor countries like here, Brazil
Everytime I hear it introduced as "horse dewormer". The bias is already made clear.
While Mel Gibson is clearly off his rocker in that Ivermectin can't do jack shit against cancer... So is OP for acting like it's not safe for human consumption. It's safe for consumption even at 10x a "normal" dosage (with all the Covid-19 studies showing that while more or less ineffective for COVID, not at all harmful otherwise at up to 3000μg/kg.... or 15x a typical dosage http://ssrn.com/abstract=3714649).
It's 100% safe... and boatloads of it have been given to humans for longer than most people arguing about this shit have been alive.

TL;DR... While probably useless for anything that people recently attribute to it... It's safe for consumption as a general rule.
Bud they're tricking idiots who need actual medicine into taking something that won't help, and that gets people killed.
People who take medical advice from Trump and Mel Gibson would have been eaten by the Lion anyways.
