Kroger in GA filled my IVM script but charged me $4 per 3mg pill. $125 for just a months supply. I called other independent pharmacies. They can't even get it. Its in short supply.
Personally I believe someone in the gov or supply chain has it all stacked in a warehouse somewhere to stop us from getting it.
I know! My local feedstore usually stocked the coveted apple flavored gel. They tell me they will get some in December. They've been unable to get any for 4 months!
I know someone who works at Tractor supply. We've been working on stockpiling a small stash of the paste stuff but that's partly because our farm has goats and horses that actually need the dam stuff.
Except for the 88% of the ingredients that are completely unknown, and have all sorts of nasty MSDS safety precautions regarding human contact, let alone human consumption. People have stated they have taken it without problems, so if someone wants to risk it, that's up to them.
It is all a scare tactic to prevent people from taking it and getting it CHEAP compared to the usual jack-the-price-up for human use. It is completely safe as I have taken it myself several times.
The ingredients "completely unknown" is a load of horseshit. Don't fall for the lies.
I called the company that sells the 1.87% (I realize it's 98% unknown, not 88%) IV paste. They don't know what comprises the 98%. They are under no obligation to find out, since they sell it for use on horses. The long list of MSDS precautions is for the 98%, not the IV. I just don't trust consuming something I have no idea what is in it, even if others report they had no problem. I just recovered from over 2 weeks of covid, so I'll wait and obtain some real, human, IV for a next time, if it happens. I bought two tubes of the IV paste before learning more about it, so now I have two tubes, for possible horse use :)
Whatever, read the ingredients before you buy. Don't get the ones with other active antiparasitics. Get the IVM only ones. Also: IVM Drenches are a possibility, if the paste is sold out. Apply these to the skin, not by mouth, just as if you were an animal. Peeps are worried about the isopropanol that is the carrier for drenches. The toxicology warnings for iso are real, but from what I have read it is people presenting to emergency wards because they were drinking hand sanitiser to get drunk: they usually recovered. They have drunk an entire bottle. One teaspoon of standard drench, applied to the skin, as is the case for an IVM drench, is not gonna get you drunk, let alone poison you. It is as toxic as hand sanitiser which people frequently use these days.
American Frontline Doctors took 2 full months since my telemedicine session to wrote the script and it was $90 for that and $150 for a 1 week treatment course.
In that time I got a full order of like 5x the amount in a month with no script for like $130 from reliablerxpharmacy.com

Ivermectin as horse gel/paste is $8.99 a tube for six 200 lb doses. Same stuff.
IF you can find it! Tractor Supply and Rural King (around here) always seem to be "out". They even have a sign saying "NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION"!
broski. :D I like that.
no wonder people can't buy it. you people are fucking hoarding them

Theyβre far less likely to poison expensive horses than they are humans. Think.
Phizermectin, modernamectin?
The pharmacy bottle says mfr: Edenbridge round white 806.
The actual blister-pack says
"IVERMECTIN TABLET USP 3mg"
"Edenbridge Pharmaceuticals, LLC"
I think itβs big farm (Pfizer and Moderna) that are stacking it in warehouses.
That was actually cheap. I paid 150 to get a single treatment course for my wife.
