I stumbled upon a corner of the internet where people were talking about taking Ivermectin to get rid of parasites. Specifically for parasites that don’t show symptoms whatsoever, or the symptoms are so mild that it’s hard to get a medical professional to prescribe an anti parasite treatment.
Is there any truth to this? I know in areas where parasites are more common, people regularly take anti parasite meds to poop out a lot of worms every so often. Would there be an under diagnosis problem in richer countries?
in richer countries sanitary conditions of food and water means there’s less risk of parasitic infection
if there’s no symptom, you probablu don’t have a parasitic infection. Remember that billions of bacteria and other microorganisms live in your body in a symbiotic relationship, that’s totally normal and without the you would die
For the love of God, please don’t take any medicine without your doctor telling you to do so. Esoecially any “purification”, " cleansing" or “detox” substance some randos on the internet tell you it’s good for you. Those are people with no medicanl knowledge at best or scammers at worst
