Ivermectin Dosage Guidelines

The trick with ivermectin, unlike so many other medications,

almost all other

medications, is it's weight-based.

Um, so you wanna take a patient's weight.

In America, I don't know why we do pounds, but we do, and that's where our

brain goes, so you wanna convert it to kilograms.

I get somebody, "How do you do that?" Just do the math for

me.

You guys take your weight,

divide it by 2.2, there's your kilogram.

So weight divided by 2.2 is your kilogram.

I'm not telling you my weight, otherwise...

So let's say 130 pound person, okay?

You're gonna divide it by 2.2. You're gonna get a little bit less than,

uh, or a

little bit less than half of that weight, and then you multiply it by whatever the

dose is. So if it's prevention, it's .2

milligrams of ivermectin per kilogram of body weight twice a week.

If you're doing parasite cleanse, I bump up a little bit.

I do .3 milligrams per kilogram, um, and

then I follow the protocol of my parasite cleanse.

If I have an actively sick COVID patient or flu

patient or RSV patient, 'cause I don't actually want you guys

testing, please don't test, um, then I bump you up .4 to

.6 milligrams per kilogram, and I'll take that number,

and then I'll probably round

up a little bit just to put it in even at the five milligram mark.

So if someone's 32 milligrams, I'll write a script for 35 milligrams

just to be- give you a little bump. Um, and then my cancer patients,

it really just

depends on what type of cancer they have, the stage that they

have, um, the progression. Are we going super aggressive?

And I might go all the way up to one milligram per kilogram or

higher. Um, so it just depends on what you're doing it

for, but the lowest I would

ever say on anything is .2 milligrams per kilogram
