Conclusions
Ivermectin demonstrates protective effects in the STZ-induced Alzheimer’s model by reducing pathological changes and Aβ plaques, acetylcholinesterase activity, as well as improving memory and learning.
Plain Language Summary
Alzheimer’s disease is a neurological disease and the most common cause of dementia in the elderly. Despite progress in Alzheimer’s research, there is no definitive cure for this disease, and therefore, more research is needed to find new drugs to treat this disease. Our previous study showed the neuroprotective effects of ivermectin in ischemic stroke. Hence, our aim in the present study was to investigate the possible beneficial and therapeutic effects of ivermectin in Alzheimer’s disease. For this purpose, we first induced Alzheimer’s in rats and then treated them with ivermectin at a dose of 2 mg/kg for three days. The results we obtained showed that administration of ivermectin can reduce brain tissue damage and improve memory and learning. Ivermectin also caused a decrease in the activity of the acetylcholinesterase enzyme. This enzyme breaks down acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that plays a crucial role in memory and learning. Therefore, a decrease in the activity of this enzyme reduces the loss of acetylcholine. This study concludes that ivermectin could be considered as a potential treatment for Alzheimer’s disease. It should be noted that this study was conducted on laboratory animals and further studies are needed to confirm its use in humans.
What if everyone with Alzheimer's started taking ivermectin? With a super cheap price and no serious side effects, it could be treatment of first choice.
What if it works? Big win for everyone, except Big Pharma and Big Cabal, which desperately need humans to be miserable and on expensive drugs at all times.
What if it doesn't? No harm done.
Here in California, there's an urgent care center on practically every street corner.
Before awareness, you could buy a bottle of Ivermectin---outside of the USA---for about 3 US dollars for a bottle of 60 pills and it was so cheap to make---pennies per tablet---it was given away in Africa and South America for the prevention of parasites. It was available without a prescription EVERYWHERE except the USA and a few other 1st world nations. After awareness, the pills are 3 to 5 dollars each. Is the Capitalism or just pure GREED? Jus askin for a friend!
...question of the day ( QOTD ) - still trust the medical establishment
I stopped trusting the medical establishment decades ago, although I have encountered several individual docs who have proven trustworthy.
I was at Ace Hardware the other day and they asked me if I wanted to donate a portion of my change to blood cancer research.
This seems like an illness they want to become more often, likely an incentive for people to ask the state to kill them sooner.
On a side note, I have felt more and more like the government’s odd fixation on attacking tobacco and nicotine while shrugging off alcohol and countless poisons in our foods and “medicine” (I see cannabis as somewhere between the two in it’s risk/benefit potential) is also due to the potential to reduce Alzheimer’s and other benefits.
It’s a wealth depleting disease big pharma and health care wants to vacuum retirement accounts from everybody.
I'm sorry to hear that.
Nothing works all the time or on everything; biology is insanely complex and variable.
