For a moment I thought it was a joke. Such are the times.

Ivermectin is an amazing drug all around. Very safe and useful in so many circumstances.

Very sad.

Definitely not a joke. I use Ivermectin cream to control Rosacea and it works well. The goal isn’t to eliminate them but to prevent overgrowth which is likely what causes most Rosacea.
