So I work at a MDs office and we have been legitimately seeing more scabies lately. The standard of care for treatment of crusted scabies is ivermectin. We are not able to get it for this. Upon digging in it seems the big box pharmacies (I hope this is all it is limited to ) are being told by the FDA to send all ivermectin to them (FDA)!!!! Where does this stop?

As someone who works Intimately with pharmacies this is not true. I’ve seen it on the shelf, seen it dispensed as recently as yesterday. It sure who’s telling you this but something as simple as calling some pharmacies and asking them if they have it in stock would be a start for verification.
So maybe it isn't the case where you work/have been. Locally it is the case around here (we have called many of them locally). Take the truth or leave it
