Short Piece on Ivermectin

 Every week, I read around twenty-odd medical studies.  So this week, I came to the topic of Ivermectin (you know.....the horse-dewormer or miracle drug for Covid).

So back in 2014, the US government went to study the idea of Ivermectin for another purpose. The idea?  Using it for alcohol addiction.  Logically, at least in the studies.....if you used the stuff for seriously addicted folks....it lessened your 'need'.  

It was apparently a successful study....but went nowhere.  Why?  No explanation, but the fact that its so cheap.....it's not a money-maker for the drug-industry.
