So again, it's a little early to be commenting on this seeing as I just took my first dose of Ivermectin like 20 minutes ago, but I just thought of a great analogy to help "Horse Paste Hesitant" people work up the guts to take it:
So it's marketed to horse owners for their horses, so what? It has the same active ingredients as the stuff they've given to humans billions of times for a million different illnesses. It's not like it's going to turn you into a horse. Horses eat apples too, do eating apples make you more horse-like?
Take Excedrin and Midol as an example. Until very, very recently, they had the EXACT same ingredients: aspirin, acetaminophen, and caffeine IN THE EXACT SAME AMOUNTS (there was a small change to Midol recently--I think people started figuring it out so they replaced the aspirin with an antihistamine).
The only difference for the longest time was that one had a gender neutral green bottle and was marketed to people with headaches, and the other came in an effeminate bottle and was marketed to women with cramping.
Same exact drug, same exact ingredients, same exact dosage of each ingredient. But have you ever tried to convince a guy to take a Midol for a headache? Or a woman to take Excedrin for cramping? I have. Both. And it's a nightmare trying to get them to wrap their heads around what I'm saying.
"I don't have a headache" (girl) and "I don't have a uterus" (guy) are things I literally heard.
This guy actually said to me "Will it like...give me like...girl problems?" I shit you not. I had to show both these people (separate occasions, years apart) the bottles with their ingredients listed side by side in order to convince them...and they were STILL hesitant!
This is what we're up against. People are stupid. They need a little help sometimes. Maybe my story will help you save a life haha.
