Ivermectin has New Application in Inhibiting Colorectal Cancer Cell Growth

Quote:
Overall, ivermectin suppressed cell proliferation by promoting ROS-mediated mitochondrial apoptosis pathway and inducing S phase arrest in CRC cells, suggesting that ivermectin might be a new potential anticancer drug therapy for human colorectal cancer and other cancers.
Science!

It's no different than the medication Gabapentin, which is also used on humans and animals. The problems came when people who didn't know what they were doing took doses that were meant for a horse.

I am being sarcastic... those who glibly want to pretend that the Ivermectin is "not a real drug" should imho agree not to use it when they get cancer.

The vet prescribed Gabapentin for my cat because he turns into a demon every time I take him in for a checkup or shots. He made me promise to give it to the cat before bringing him in again.

It is all a political agenda.

The mainstream propaganda media had called this a wonder drug and it won a Nobel Prize for applications in humans. That is until the pandemic hit and the side that claims to be all about "science" needed to attack the drug for political reasons.

Horse dewormer also has applications in horses. I'm trying really hard to be politically correct here, but I am NOT a horse. However, if you are of the equine persuasion, knock yourself out.

Anyone still referring to it as "horse dewormer" should not be engaged. Like a child, you need to let them know that their behavior isn't acceptable in a way they'll understand.

Arguing with them feeds the narcissism which is the root cause of their belief that they're smarter than you, so don't do it. Just ignore them. Shut them off, don't try to shut them down. There's no argument you can make, at this point, which is going to convince them. They're living outside the bounds of reality and reality can't persuade them. Just ignore them.

How much of an idiot do you have to be to take a dose that was meant for a horse? No matter what the drug may be.

But there are plenty of these idiots out there. And pretty much they are all in lockstep with you regarding their positions.

Any commie lib human who takes a horse dose of any medication should be kicked out of the commie lib party and sent over to the libertarians.

Bruh, the only ivermectin that is available to buy without a prescription IS a horse dewormer.

You make an excellent point. It's all about disgusting, brazen party-level politics. Not one iota of the "debate or discussion" holds the American people's best interest in mind, only the Democrat Party's.
