I asked a gentleman if he had been vaccinated for Covid-19. He told me no, he didn't want to grow another eyeball and furthermore, he and his whole family were protected by Covid-19 because they take Ivomex. In case you don't know, that's cattle wormer. I didn't ask him if he uses the 12 inch applicator or an oral formulation--I was simply done with that conversation.

(16,903 posts)In humans, overdoses of the drug can cause nausea, vomiting, low blood pressure, allergic reactions, seizures, coma and even death, the FDA says. And even smaller doses of the veterinary drug can pose risks. That's because many inactive ingredients in animal medications haven't been studied for use in people, and these inactive ingredients could pose risks and affect how the drug is metabolized in humans, the FDA says.

(93 posts)Humor that points to the absurdity of non-critical thinking appeals to all people and helps them find common groundhelps free them from thinking dualistically. i.e. everything isnt all bad or all good; just maybe, some of it is nuts.

Still, if used with zinc or certain other combinations can cause a near complete eradication of intestinal flora.
This can or will lead to digestion issues, malabsorption of food nutrients and leaky gut.
They'd better not fuck up those dosing requirements, as they are based on weight and strength.
