Put it all his bottles over the weekend and on his sores topically just once. It’s Monday morning and it’s like he never had it. Usually takes 10 days and it’s a nightmare.
Thanks, horse paste! ;)

From 2018 Tarrascon Pocket Pharmacopoeia's section on Antiparasitics: Ivermectin (Stromectol) Scabies: 200mcg/kg PO (orally) on day 1 (3mg for 15-24kg, 6mg for 25 to 35kg, 9mg for 36 to 50kg, 12mg for 51 to 65kg, and 15mg for 66 to 79kg) repeat dose in 7 to 14 days. Peds head lice: 200 or 400 mcg/kg PO on days 1 & 8. Single PO dose of 200mcg/kg for strongyloidiasis, 150mcg/kg for onchocerciasis. Not for children less than 15kg (side note from me--hah, tell that to all the malnourished children in India and Africa who take ivermectin like candy). Take on empty stomach with water."
Dr. Ardis talks about the safety profile of ivermectin all the time... there really is no OD effects except that you get sick from the rapid release of toxins when your body's parasites, etc. die off too effectively for the rest of your body to keep up. They did a study on this (I don't have the time to look for it, do your own research on PubMed, etc. try looking on luxxle.com for it).
If you're going to do a good parasite cleanse, be sure to support your liver and kidneys, stay hydrated, and support your gut at the same time. Also a side note, while ivermectin is pretty much the only treatment for river water blindness, it can also cause a rare side effect in some people that causes temporary eye changes. Of all the hundreds of people I know popping horse paste tubes and ivermectin pills, only one person had eye issues. It resolved after a few months. Try a small dose and see if you have a reaction, just like anything else. Do your research. Also, cool plus to taking ivermectin--it only kills the bad stuff, and it encourages your good gut microbiome to thrive.
