Hey buddy, There are lots of anecdotal stories on the net about Ivermectin but so far they’re just stories.
I totally get where you’re coming from - try anything at this point, right? But this is probably not the answer. I don’t know what treatments you’ve had but some guys on this forum have had “triplet therapy” using chemo in combination with specific hormone drugs or Pluvicto.
Just to respectfully ask, were you treated at a center of excellence - like a Mayo, Sloan, Andersen type center- or by your local doc/urologist? Going to one of these hospitals can make a much greater impact on your longevity than some unproven dewormer. Best

@topsz, I moved your question to this existing discussion so you can read comments from fellow members:

The short answer is 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.
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.
