The United States issued a strict warning against the use of Ivermectin to treat patients with coronavirus disease. In a statement, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said it has not approved Ivermectin for use in treating or preventing Covid-19 in humans as it is not a drug for treating viruses. 'You are not a horse. You are not a cow. Seriously, y'all. Stop it,' the FDA was quoted on Saturday.

The complete FDA body feeling towards the use of Ivermectin in Mississippi, the state worst hit by the Covid-19 pandemic across the United States. Several people were found using the drug to cure the viral disease. Mississippi's health department issued a warning that over 70 percent of the recent calls to the poison department were from people who took Ivermectin bought at livestock supply centres, Bloomberg further reported.

According to the US FDA's website, Ivermectin tablets are approved to treat people who are suffering from intestinal strongyloidiasis and onchocerciasis, two conditions caused by parasitic worms. Additionally, 'some topical (on the skin) forms of ivermectin are approved to treat external parasites like head lice and for skin conditions such as rosacea,' the website said.
