I know what the FDA is, what they do, and I agree it is necessary.
The FDA has approved the use of Ivermectin in humans. We're not talking about like, heroin, or some toxic chemical that isn't even a drug.
1 in 5 prescriptions are off-label.
Meaning, to treat conditions that the FDA has not approved the drugs for. This idea that doctors are only allowed to prescribe drugs for FDA-approved use is just like, incorrect.
