It’s a good question. What little I found is not promising for use as a cancer treatment and I still can’t see it as an effective treatment for PV or any MPN. I’m thinking of what an MPN is (uncontrolled blood cell production in the bone marrow due to a random genetic mutation) and what Ivermectin is used for (anti-parasitic).
I know people who are using it for parasite-cleansing but overall they are pretty healthy people already. I’m rather skeptical for myself but maybe it is helping people.
That’s why I put this question out there😊
What would Ivermectin do for PV? What is the benefit specifically for PV and what risks are there. If there was some relief for side effects, I’d want to see that info too.
Has anyone ever taken ivermectin for polycythemia vera?
There's no information available about ivermectin being used to treat PV. The search results don't mention ivermectin as a treatment option for this condition.
The FDA-approved treatments for PV include
- Phlebotomy (regular blood withdrawals)
- Low-dose aspirin
