Ivermectin is an FDA approved drug for humans and is on the World Health Organization's (WHO) list of essential medicines. Did you know the creators of this drug won a Nobel Prize for their work?
Ivermectin first appeared in the late 1970's and was initially introduced as a commercial product for animal health in 1981. Eventually, it was used on humans to treat Onchocerciasis in 1988 and proved to be safe, well tolerated, easily administered, and highly effective against a broad-spectrum of things on humans (for the last 33 years).

But ivermectin can also be considered alongside those worthy contenders, based on its versatility, safety and the beneficial impact that it has had, and continues to have, worldwide.
