For ....... I'm going to guess parasites?
Ivermectin is an FDA-approved broad-spectrum antiparasitic agent with demonstrated antiviral activity against a number of DNA and RNA viruses, including severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).
Take it up with the National Library of Medicine.

Ehh. Looks like the jury is still out on Ivermectin and covid treatment.
Why You Should Not Use Ivermectin to Treat or Prevent COVID-19
Using the Drug ivermectin to treat COVID-19 can be dangerous and even lethal. The FDA has not approved the drug for that purpose.www.fda.gov
At a Higher Dose and Longer Duration, Ivermectin Still Not Effective Against COVID-19
A Cochrane meta-analysis of 11 eligible trials examining the efficacy of ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19 published through April 2022 concluded that ivermectin has no beneficial effect for people with COVID-19.1 Since May 2022, an additional 3 large randomized clinical trials including...jamanetwork.com

Stay away from the right wing blogs, they are misleading you into thinking that articles say things they do not. That article simply does not say what you have been misled into thinking it does.
Fact check: NIH continues to recommend against using ivermectin as a COVID-19 treatment
The National Institutes of Health has not added ivermectin to its list of COVID-19 treatments. Claims that it has are false.www.usatoday.com

Did FDA Recently 'Admit' That Doctors Can Prescribe Ivermectin For COVID-19?
The FDA does not, and has not, prohibited doctors from prescribing any drugs for off-label uses.www.snopes.com
Sadly, this is the state of affairs in our world today. Poor reading comprehension. Laziness. Too much faith in bloggers and in particularly right wing social media that lies to you.
We weren't discussing covid you rube. And my links 1 was from the National Library of Medicine, part of the National Institute of Health, you know the same .gov organization Fauci was apart of. I don't think that is some right wing blog.
You called it an "animal parasite" medication, typical for a rube and I corrected you. It is a widely prescribed medication for humans that does have anti-viral uses. Never did I bring up covid.
The right wing blogs CLAIM that the NIH endorses it for Covid. That is simply not true.
You are the one who asserted the NIH had done so, why can't you admit that the article you linked does not say that and that you were misled on that?
