Stromectol (ivermectin) "I have recently taken my third round of Stromectol for a skin condition that I describe as 'worms beneath the skin'. My dermatologist prefers to call my condition, 'V's rash'. I am using Stromectol with a daily dose of 200mg doxycycline. Yes, it does make me nauseous, but worth it. Stromectol has worked the best this third time. I begin my second phase today, as I began the third course two weeks ago. I've had no 'activity' in the skin since the third round began. Hope this last dose helps these. "

"After seeing about 8 different doctors. two of the doctors somewhat believed me when I relayed my symptoms to them because they are so unbelievable and insane. I’ve since diagnosed myself with what is a terribly extreme parasitic infection for which ivermectin is used as treatment. I took 12mg on day one. I see a mass exodus of parasites from my body. Unfortunately, I’m unsure if this is the norm for this affliction or if the ivermectin is working. I took a second dosage of 12 mg on day 6. Same outcome. Mass exodus, nothing new, nastiness abounds. I’ve become skeletal from not eating for 6 weeks- living on ensure and Pedialyte due to my refusal to eat after witnessing the constant disgust emanating from my tongue and behind my teeth (a wad of paper towels in my mouth is commonplace for 5 weeks now). I cannot afford to lose any more weight so I’m taking the third dose of 12mg on day 12 in hopes that it works and I’m cured as the other review authors here. I’m getting desperate."
