@tvz, Researchers are studying Ivermectin to see if it may be used as an anti-cancer drug and early studies show promise. Please note that this research is in the early stages (mice studies) and has not yet been tested in human trials. Ivermectin is not a proven standard treatment for prostate cancer.

Ivermectin combined with other chemotherapy drugs or targeted drugs is being studied in early clinical trials and shows promise in patients for whom conventional chemotherapy has not worked in some cancer types. It may be effective against drug-resistant cancer cells.

Important
It is NOT safe to take ivermectin used in veterinary medicine. Please talk to your doctor before taking any over-the-counter medications or supplements that claim to fight or cure cancer.

@tvz, have you been asked to participate in a clinical trial for prostate cancer? Where did you hear about ivermectin for cancer?

Glasgow University has added mebendazole to docetaxel for PC, City of Hope has added Ivermectin to TNBC treatment.

Researching is how I had learned ivermectin has been used to treat early stage gleason 6, gleason 7 (3+4) prostate cancer. I also have read men who had taken ivermectin for prostate cancer were healed without chemo or radiation. Now, I'm trying to learn more information on ivermectin treatment and correct dosage. Also, on how to approach PCP for ivermectin prescription.
