Introduction: During the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, there was a widespread public misconception regarding ivermectin use in managing the
Finally, the many examples of ivermectin distribution campaigns leading to rapid population-wide decreases in morbidity and mortality indicate that an oral agent effective

Aims: This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to investigate the effect of ivermectin on mortality in patients with COVID-19
Ivermectin is a drug of a wide range of bioactivity and has been in use for more than 30 years for treatment of parasitic infections in humans [ 1 ]
The available body of evidence may have changed over the last months, as studies have been retracted and “standards of care” (SOC) used in control groups have changed
Seven studies showed a lower mortality rate in the ivermectin group than
Within the first week of patients’ symptom onset, the study
As such, since the beginning of the pandemic, repurposed FDA-approved drugs have been sought as potential therapeutic options for COVID-19 due to their known safety profiles and potential anti-viral effects
Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of ivermectin at a maximum targeted dose of 600 μg/kg daily for 6 days, compared with placebo, for the
The results show that ivermectin (0
The safety and efficacy of ivermectin for the prevention and treatment of COVID-19 have been evaluated in clinical trials and observational cohorts
