So unimpressive was its performance that it's been dumped from the trialEven worse, the dose tested was very high, 400mg per kilogram, that is 2x to 3x the usual dose of that drug and repeated daily for three days, a very short interval. The usual dose is 150mg per kilogram repeated at a 30 day interval, so really the 400mg daily over a 72hr period is almost 10x the normal dose, and statistically it still did feck all versus Sars-CoV-2!)
But the idea it did nothing isn't quite right.
At that dose some portion of the test group are possibly going to have serious side-effects from Ivermectin. The study of course is investigating Ivermectin vs Sars-CoV-2, not Ivermectin vs Personal Health.
