Executive Summary

• It’s always good to understand the actual side effects of all drugs.
• Recently we received a question regarding the potential liver toxicity of Ivermectin.

Introduction

The liver is the primary organ that removes drugs from the bloodstream. The most toxic drugs are the most harmful to the liver, and the worst drugs put the most “miles” on the liver. This is why so many pharmaceutical advertisements warn against drug use for those with liver disease. Every drug must have its benefits traded versus its costs. This is how this website analyzes any drug — however, it is not how the FDA evaluates drugs. No cost-benefit analysis is performed when evaluating a drug for approval.

In this article, I will answer the question of Ivermectin’s toxicity to the liver.

Ivermectin and the Liver

This is a question we received on the topic of Ivermectin and liver toxicity.

My husband started taking Ivermectin to treat metastatic melanoma. When we went to talk to a Dr. about immunotherapy we revealed that he was taking Ivermectin.

She said he needed to stop so that she would know if any side effects on his liver were caused by Ivermectin, or by the 2 immunotherapies. (She said that Ivermectin can adversely affect the liver)
Wayne had cancer detected in lymph nodes under his left arm, which had spread to his brain, liver and rib cage.

We wonder if you have heard of Ivermectin adversely affecting the liver, or interfering with immunotherapy. He had gamma knife radiation on his brain and first 2 types of immunotherapy this week. We want to continue Ivermectin if it is deemed safe!

Important Point #1: Ivermectin as a Threat to Other Drugs

We are often asked if we can recommend MDs that will work with cancer patients on Ivermectin. We do not have a list of MDs who do this, and many are restricted. I quote from a recent message I received on this exact topic.

The doctor was wonderful and confirmed my research about ivermectin as a new therapy for cancer despite the oncologists here in BC Canada saying they can not advise to that or they will be basically put on a list and be terminated.

MDs are significantly controlled in what they can recommend — and it has nothing to do with the evidence that supports Ivermectin. Ivermectin is Public Enemy number one for pharmaceutical companies due to the combination of the following factors.

• It is generic.
• It is a competitor and, in fact, more effective than much more expensive treatments.
• It is extremely popular; many people suspect or know that the medical establishment provides false information. This dramatically increases the threat to the credibility of MDs and the overall medical establishment.
• It has a multi-decade history of safety and effectiveness, with billions of dosages taken.
• The number of things it is helpful for keeps growing — which means that it is one of the most multidimensional drugs we have.

Important Point #2: The Safety of Ivermectin

Ivermectin is known as one of the safest drugs that exist. In the article Studying the Safety of Ivermectin, I cover that the toxicity level of Ivermectin is very high. This means a person must take the recommended dosage of Ivermectin many times before reaching toxicity thresholds.

Important Point #3: Ivermectin is Distributed Without Prescription by Governments

Something that the medical establishment in most Western countries mainly does not like discussing is how in many countries, Ivermectin does not require a prescription — and the safety profile of Ivermectin is a reason for this.

During the covid pandemic/plandemic, Indonesia moved away from vaccines and began distributing Ivermectin without prescription to its population. The Western establishment media pilloried Indonesia for being very ignorant — which I covered in the article How the Media Chose to Smear Indonesia for Using Ivermectin for Covid until Indonesia began to do well against Covid. At that point, the establishment media — burdened with enormous amounts of advertising from Prizer– stopped covering the story. Several countries did the same, had their stories, and were blackballed in the Western establishment media. 

Conclusion

MDs are providing false information on Ivermectin’s safety. One can say, “It’s not their fault,” because they are told what today by the medical establishment, and in the US, every year, MDs face more restrictions in what they can say as the medical authorities become more overbearing. See the articles in the Medical Authorities category of this website to see the mountain of evidence we provide.

Our Recommended Source of Supply

• Our approved source for Ivermectin is Summit Products.
• They carry the Ivermectin we tested for bioequivalence 
• (you can read about our testing here) for the active ingredient with the original Merck version but at a much lower price than the Merck version. 
• This source makes Ivermectin much more accessible and has passed our testing.
