He takes a seizure medication and is afraid to mix the two, plus he doesn't take a lot of meds because his stomach doesn't react well. Can he rub his paste on and it still be effective? Edit: Sorry I forgot to post he was diagnosed with "coof" last night.

He only needs to take it if he is sick. I see other people taking it prophylactically which I see as a waste. You may never get covid. Save it till you need it, it may not be on the market much longer.
According to this data, Ivermectin is effective as a prophylactic:

I didn't say it wasn't effective, most likely it is very effective. However, if you eat all your horse paste prophylactically, one day soon you will be looking for more. What if its not available in the future? Chances are when you need it you will not have it. All I am saying is save till you need to fight a active infection.
Correct! It is becoming very difficult to aquire...and medicine should not be used if not sick. Do the daily vitamins as directed add some burdock root, but save the meds for sickness...your life may depend on it....
I have prescription ivermectin not horse paste.
I was trying to be helpful with the link, no need to be defensive
Very one should be taking D, C, Zinc. Elderberry and Quercetin are good too
If you want to take something prophylactically, Vitamin D3, Zinc and vitamin C. Elderberry and Astralagus are also good for building the immune system.
Consider DMSO - It seeps right into the body, carrying virtually anything it's mixed with. Will the horse paste + DMSO get it into his body? Definitely. Is it safe? Iouno and I wouldn't test it myself unless I were desperate.
The problem with dmso is just what you said. It takes everything into the body. You can ingest a lot of things that you wouldn't necessarily want reaching the blood stream though the skin. The digestive system is used to handling things the skin does not. You would be breaking the natural role of the skin keeping foreign material out.
Yes. I rubbed it on my son's thighs, when he had strange symptoms of flu (in the middle of summer?) a few weeks ago. I adjusted the paste to his weight, rubbed on one dose, the second one 48h later, one day after the second rub he was completely fine.
My sister knows a guy who rubbed the horse paste on his hands daily. She said it took him 3 weeks to get rid of the rona, and she thinks it's because he rubbed it on his hands instead of ingesting it. Not sure if that's true because there are some things that are only supposed to be rubbed on (not ingested) and they do whatever it is they're supposed to do. Agree with the other poster (demonite10) that adding DMSO might help it absorb better. I've used DMSO on myself and my horses for years with no ill effects. That said, sometimes mixing things is contraindicated, either because that causes a new problem or because they cancel each other out, and I have no idea about DMSO + ivermectin. I have mixed DMSO with Absorbine horse liniment to good effect, so I know it can be mixed with some things.
Hands, especially a man's, tend to be calloused. Certainly thicker than other skin areas. Plus they get washed. Most of his medicine went into dead skin cells and was wasted. Better place is armpit, skin on chest under armpit, skin on inner arm above armpit, under boobs but not on nipples, inner thighs.
Good to know.

Maybe try rectal
Call a pharmacist

I didn’t see any indications of causing seizures and I am Not a doc.
Nope
