It’s not just body weight, either. Horses have completely different metabolisms because they digest different types of food and are designed to burn way more energy than a human. And the delivery system (the paste itself) has stuff in it that’s great for horses, and was never tested for humans.
Not to mention that it can react dangerously with common medications like blood thinners.
The active ingredient is the same for humans and horses, but it’s way more complicated to figure out the balance between safe and effective than some basic math on the back of a napkin. There is a reason that pharmacists have years of graduate-level chemistry education in order to figure this stuff out.
Nobody is saying they prefer to take horse ivermectin over people ivermectin. The problem is all these assholes with years of graduate level education dont give a fuck about actually helping people and will thus not prescribe the proper treatment. Regular folks then have no choice but to do what they feel they must. Also $200 for Dr. visit and prescription VS $5.00 at tractor supply.
Regardless of the difference in digestive systems. The paste has a certain concentration per lb. Which is 200 mcg per lb. Frontline says if you actively have covid that you need 400 to 600 mcg per kg. So it is a simple math problem to convert it from lb to kg. I am 200 lb and have been taking 500lb worth of past the last 3 days to go in the middle of the recommended dose. I feel 100 times better, my cough is going away which felt like bricks on my chest and couldn't stop deep coughing. If you don't want to waste time with a Skype doc appointment or can't afford the prices it cost me $26 at tractor supply. Which will leave me with excess even at my higher dose.
Are you taking into account the inactive ingredients that are usually found in animal medicine versus human medicine that can react with things (like other medicines) in humans?
That paste itself is designed for horses. It’s designed to interact with their specific body chemistry. They put the medicine in the paste as a delivery mechanism. It’s not just a different way of taking medicine, it has a bunch of stuff in it that was never intended to interact with human biochemistry.
Look, I know I can’t and have no real interest in stopping people from taking horse medicine. It’s a free country. I just don’t think a lot of people here understand biochemistry well enough to even know all the things they need to be accounting for. You don’t know what you don’t know, and the only difference between a medicine and a poison is expertise.
I don’t like the idea of online prescriptions, but at least meds from Frontline are designed for humans and sent by doctors who (I hope) are asking about other meds you’re taking and considering the numerous factors that go into determining a safe dosage.
The ability to do these types of calculations confidently goes way beyond college chemistry, and I say that as someone with a healthy background in college chemistry. I would not trust myself to figure out the safe conversion of horse meds into human meds, because the stuff in horse meds isn’t tested in humans and I have no data to account for those factors whatsoever. I don’t like making up numbers for calculations of things I’m putting into my body.
You are right as far as inactive ingredients go and not being able to account for them. It is still absolutely a risk. For me it was one I was willing take take. I will update how I feel as the week and weeks progress with potential side effects
I have taken it in the past with no ill effect. Also found this…
“ As a prophylactic, the convention is now pretty much to take it monthly. If a person is already feeling sick, the treatment dose is THREE doses, but spaced 48 hours apart. So one dose on Monday, the next on Wednesday, the next on Friday, for example. The 48 hour spacing has to do with the liver’s speed at metabolizing Ivermectin. The 48 hour spacing MAXIMIZES the efficacy of the drug in the body.”
You can avoid the horse paste if you'd like. It's a free country. Quercetin & zinc also work too and thats what we use. There is so many ways to beat this now that the FDA is probably up into the wee hours of the morning trying to keep up with all of this. I say that alone is a good thing. But yea, seeing the inactive ingredients say "hydrogenated castor bean oil" made me not take it and I handed it to the lady down the road who owns horses.
I have heard/read/seen so much anecdotal testimonies all saying "it works", "No problems". If I or someone I know needed it I would not hesitate to take it. I have some paste just in case as well as other cures...just in case.
I don’t know what I should be worried about in horse paste, because the stuff in horse paste was added and mixed with absolutely no thought whatsoever as to how it would affect a person.
That’s my point. I have no data about that paste, because nobody ever predicted that humans would try eating the stuff. Because it was made for horses.
I have no research to look at. No data. Just the knowledge that the paste is full of stuff that was never intended for human consumption.
We know WAY more about what’s in the vaccine than horse paste. I can figure out how the doseage of the ingredients in a vaccine should affect a person. I know how those ingredients will interact with existing meds.
I know stuff about the vaccine because it was mixed and tested for human consumption.
None of that is true of horse paste. And yet, people are comfortable taking a risk with horse paste, and shunning the vaccine.
Shun the vaccine if you want, but eating horse paste to avoid it is sort of like jumping out of a bus on the interstate because you aren’t sure you’ll like the destination. Good luck, but it’s not exactly a choice I understand yet if we’re trying to be scientific about it.
No, it really is that fucking simple. Horse paste isn’t magical or indigestible. The injectable formulation can be used orally, just like medications for humans sometimes are. This is mostly about palatability.
Just don’t be an idiot and drink an entire bottle or eat the entire tube.
I mean, if you’re going to go at this on your own, taking the version of the medication that was actually designed for human digestive systems is much safer.

We didn’t create 🤡 🌎
We’re just living in it.
I stay away from ALL doctors. If I should ever really need one, I might see one.
Yes. Close to $300 vs $8.50

Glad you posted this. I've no idea why your post would be down voted. I thought we were truth seekers here, and want the truth, warts and all.
Which inactive ingredients are you concerned about? Your statements are passionate yet vague on actual concerns.
Respectfully, this question misses the point.
I don’t know what I should be worried about in horse paste, because the stuff in horse paste was added and mixed with absolutely no thought whatsoever as to how it would affect a person.
That’s my point. I have no data about that paste, because nobody ever predicted that humans would try eating the stuff. Because it was made for horses.

Weird that you are getting downvoted. You bring up some sound points
No, it really is that fucking simple. Horse paste isn’t magical or indigestible. The injectable formulation can be used orally, just like medications for humans sometimes are. This is mostly about palatability.
Just don’t be an idiot and drink an entire bottle or eat the entire tube.
You can get a prescription for (human) pills from a lot of doctors, including Americasfrontlinedoctors.com.
Mine was around $150 just for 3 days of treatment.
$60 consult and $98 for the pills. I skipped the consultation, but I wish I didn’t because I was hoping for a few months of prophylactics.
Knowing these pills cost pennies each, the markup is astounding.
If horse paste works, I prefer that. I could get years of treatment for the same price.
I mean, if you’re going to go at this on your own, taking the version of the medication that was actually designed for human digestive systems is much safer.
And people already have determined a safe effective dosage. There's a lot of 200 lb. horses out there now.
