I’ve just been exposed. But I’m taking amoxicillin for strep. Taking this with amoxicillin okay?

Like the title says. Been exposed to covid tonight. Want to go secure some ivermectin tomorrow but obviously trying to not do that if it’s dangerous

I would not go by one study, but this one says it's not ok

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31152944/

If it were me id take iver and not amox

Iver is all stage covid killer

Amox is not

Argh. Bummer. See I have to keep taking amox because I was diagnosed with strep a few days ago

I'm not sure. Did you ask a pharmacist?

btw I saw good studies with doxicylin so maybe amoxicillin is parallel.

Isn't this paper about genotoxicity in insects and parasites?

Yes

Forgive me if I’m misreading it but it doesn’t look like the paper says anything about taking the two simultaneously?

Maybe I read it too quickly. I just posted the FLCCC.net take on safety, it's not contraindicated with antibiotics :)

Appreciate your attention to this issue my friend. What do you think about this study https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0003267000011545 I found

So Ivermectin potentiates Amox in the blood? Did you read it that way too?

Yeah I just am not very well versed in chemistry so i don’t know if that could be a bad thing somehow. Mostly worried it will reduce the efficacy of the amoxicillin somehow in treating my strep throat

I don't think so but that's just a quasi educated guess. Doxycillin and ivermectin tested together many times, and also azithromycin which they call zpak was used with hydroxy chloroquine.

I would do both speaking for myself.

Of course I'm the idiot who took an antibiotic and a probiotic in the same swallow.😎

I'm not seeing Amoxicillin on this list of interactions. https://www.drugs.com/drug-interactions/ivermectin-index.html

The discovery of Ivermectin in 1975 was awarded the 2015 Nobel Prize in Medicine given its global impact in reducing onchocerciasis (river blindness), lymphatic filiariasis, and scabies in endemic areas of central Africa, Latin America, India and Southeast Asia. It has since been included on the WHO’s “List of Essential Medicines with now over 4 billion doses administered. Numerous studies report low rates of adverse events, with the majority mild, transient, and largely attributed to the body’s inflammatory response to the death of parasites and include itching, rash, swollen lymph nodes, joint paints, fever and headache. In a study which combined results from trials including over 50,000 patients, serious events occurred in less than 1% and largely associated with administration in Loa Loa infected patients. Further, according to the pharmaceutical reference standard Lexicomp, the only medications contra­indicated for use with ivermectin are the concurrent administration of anti-tuberculosis and cholera vaccines while the anticoagulant warfarin would require dose monitoring. Another special caution is that immunosuppressed or organ transplant patients who are on calcineurin inhibitors such as tacro­limus or cyclosporine or the immunosuppressant sirolimus should have close monitoring of drug levels when on ivermectin given that interactions exist which can affect these levels. A longer list of drug interactions can be found on the database of www.drugs.com/ivermectin.html, with nearly all interactions leading to a possibility of either increased or decreased blood levels of ivermectin. Given studies showing tolerance and lack of adverse effects in human subjects given even escalating, high doses of ivermectin, toxicity is unlikely although a reduced efficacy due to decreased levels may be a concern. Finally, ivermectin has been used safely in pregnant women, children, and infants.
