I know this is off topic, but we need some help. Our dog was just diagnosed with a cancerous tumor on his heart.
🧐 Research Wanted 🤔
We have fenben 222mg tabs. He is going to he 13 years old bit cancer should not be his demise. Should we just follow the Tippens protocol or would it be different for a dog? Prayers please. We already lost 2 dogs in two weeks a last year.🥺
How about ivermectin? It has 16 different ways of combatting cancer. It has less side affects than fenben.
I took fenben daily for a year. Taking a break now but had zero side effects. I wish Ivm was easier to find in US in "human" pills without getting from India. I'm fine with using the cattle IVM but hubby is iffy using animal meds for people even though his dad (a small animal vet) gave him animal meds as a kid because they were cheaper.
You can get them in the U.S., you just have to find a good doctor that will prescribe them to you and a pharmacy that won't overstep and actually fill it.
I read on Pet Med MD that Ivermectin is 3 times more effective than Fenben.
Collies & aussies have a hard time with ivermectin. I think it passes the blood brain barrier and collects in their brain & causes neurological problems. I've been reading a little bit about it this week. Because I just got a new puppy and he came with worms. And he's 1/2 australian shepherd.
Is this true for border collies too?
Fenben was taken by a man w stage 4 cancer and hes clear of it. He takes it once a month to maintain. Fenben is as good as ivermectin. And fir some easier to obtain.
Pet Med MD didn't mention use in people, but it did discuss the effectiveness in animals.
Ivermectin is what is in the Heartworm prevention for dogs. They may already be using it.
Some heartworm prevention, anyway. Not all use the same drugs.
Both together are said to have a greater-than-the-sum -of-their-parts synergistic effect.
