Should Ivermectin Be Over-the-Counter? What a New Study on Heart Risk Reveals
A new animal study asked a bold question:
What happens when you give ivermectin before inducing a heart attack?
• 🧪 Mice were given ivermectin and then subjected to a myocardial infarction (heart attack)
• ❤️ Researchers observed the effects on ischemic heart tissue
• 🧠 The goal? Understand if pre-treatment with ivermectin increases cardiac risk
This brings us to an urgent public health debate:
Should ivermectin be available OTC—or should physicians guide its use to prevent potential harm, especially in patients with existing heart issues?
