For COVID-19 "I tried it and had terrible, just terrible neurological side effects. I even took a pretty low dose, 9 mg. If you have any CNS issues whatsoever or have had tinnitus, peripheral nerve issues, DO NOT TAKE THIS. I am suffering big time with shaking, internal vibrations, and nerve issues and crossing my fingers this goes away."

"I was prescribed to take ivermectin for head lice for 3 consecutive days and 4 times a day at 3 mg each. The first day was very mild dizziness, no problem. The second day was fine. I only started getting side effects the night on Day 2, and they were horrific. Muscle tremors, shaking, rashes, loss of appetite, heart palpitations. I was trying to sleep, and I kept being woken up from dozing because of the palpitations. Well, I tried continuing its usage up until midday Day 3, when I was so beyond the point of shaking that my teeth were chattering, and I had to stop taking them out of fear of something happening to me. Fast forward a few days later off of them, still experiencing side effects. Skin is peeling, skin is red, moderate shaking. I gave a few stars because I do feel like it was helping for my condition, but it did not outweigh the side effects. Contacted my doctor for something else."
