Published human data document a consistent pattern of toxic effects when ivermectin is used at high oral doses or misused (including veterinary formulations), dominated by central‑nervous‑system depre...
Ivermectin adverse effects follow multiple timelines: toxic neurologic or gastrointestinal effects from large or inappropriate doses can appear within hours, while parasite-related reactions and many ...

The clinical literature and poison‑center reporting show a consistent pattern: veterinary ivermectin exposures more often involve large, untested doses and formulations (pastes, solutions) that produc...
Use of veterinary ivermectin formulations in humans has been repeatedly linked to overdoses and a spectrum of adverse events—most commonly gastrointestinal symptoms and neurologic problems—and has pro...
shows repeated anticancer activity in cell culture and some animal models, but translating those effects to humans faces clear and : the concentrations that kill tumor cells in vitro are often in the ...
Reports from poison centers and clinical series show two distinct clinical pictures: acute neurotoxicity after ingestion of veterinary ivermectin products taken in large doses or over short periods, v...

Patients who substitute ivermectin for evidence-based have suffered documented harms including (notably neurological effects at high doses and common gastrointestinal/skin reactions), dangerous drug–d...
is diagnosed primarily by history and clinical features; there is no routinely useful clinical assay for ivermectin concentration, so laboratory and imaging testing mainly serve to rule out metabolic,...
A small body of animal experiments, field trials, and case reports suggest can be associated with prolonged prothrombin time and reduced levels of –dependent clotting factors (II, VII, IX, X), but con...
Clinical reports and poison‑center data link severe human adverse events after off‑label ingestion of -formulations">veterinary ivermectin primarily to excessive ivermectin dosing and non‑oral or inap...
No published case studies in the supplied reporting document a clear, directly attributed adverse event from coadministration of ivermectin specifically with chemotherapy supportive drugs; small clini...
High or “off‑label” ivermectin dosing raises two linked safety questions: are higher exposures intrinsically toxic, and do specific contexts (co‑infections, genetics, formulations, drug interactions) ...
Yes—there are identifiable patient and situational risk factors that raise the likelihood of ivermectin toxicity (pharmacologic overdose or CNS/organ toxicity) beyond an immediate allergic reaction; p...
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) repeatedly warned that ivermectin is not authorized or approved to prevent or treat COVID‑19 in humans and alerted the public that people taking veterinary ...
Published case series and poison‑center reviews show a clear pattern: toxicity linked to veterinary ivermectin is driven by higher ingested doses and unusual routes/formulations and presents with more...
Ivermectin overdose commonly produces gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea), dizziness and other central nervous system effects (drowsiness, headache, tremor), and in more severe case...
