Ivermectin is one of the safest medications on the planet and has been used safely for over 30 years. It has a wide therapeutic range and is not toxic. Over 700 million cases of river blindness have been successfully treated with 80-90 million treated every year in 33 countries. Over 300 million cases of lymphatic filiariasis have been successfully treated with about 90 million cases being treated yearly in 15 countries. Ivermectin is so safe and has such minimal side effects that it is administered by non-medical and even illiterate staff in remote rural areas.
