You cannot get it at TSC. They took it all off their shelves. I kept reading about it on Facebook on some chicken groups I follow. So i was in TSC today getting some soil and i decided to go look. Yep, all gone... i asked the employee back there and he said they got the call from corporate to pull all ivermectin from the shelves.  Since it had been mentioned by the media that ivermectin could possibly slow coronavirus (something along those lines) people are trying to buy it, that have no business buying it trying to dose themselves. The guy told me they actually had people coming in asking for it. My regular feedstore still has it but they are a small family run business and would know if someone was up to utter stupidity. Plus they know their customers. She said she wasnt worried about it at their store. 

You just can't fix stupid.

I would advise against it.  Supposedly it's been shown to kill viruses in test tubes.  On the other hand, there are supposedly studies that claim cow urine and cow manure can kill viruses.  Some people in Asian countries have actually had cow pis$ parties where they sit around and drink cow urine while doing........whatever it is they do for fun.  I know there is a lot of fascination with de-wormers with cancers, etc, but I would not recommend it.  It is given to humans for certain parasites, but for Covid19, I'd try something with a little more promise.

I never buy anything like that at TSC. The date is usually about to run out and it is expensive. The people in there are clueless. I tried to order from Jeffers and they were out which doesn't surprise me because they were out of tetanus vaccine. About two weeks ago. Valley always has everything in stock.  I mentioned that I ordered 12 on Facebook and was immediately accused of hoarding. Funny. When you have a bunch of horses you need a bunch of wormer!

Speaking of clueless, I almost killed my Aussie once because he apparently ate some ivermectin.  Who knew!  After a day or two he regained his sight though.  

Yikes.  Yeah herding breed dogs can't have ivermectin. Scary you had to go through that!

A good friend of mine works for Animal Health International, they put a company wide freeze on the distribution of ivermectin due to a 75% increase in sales in 3 hours. I'm picking up 1 tube of my Equimax tomorrow from my feedstore and that's all I need. I dont purchase much from TSC as far as any feed, supplement or medications for obvious reasons... I just wanted to see it with my own eyes that the shelves were empty. And they were. 

We have 5 tubes to deworm with, but we usually go ahead and buy for the next deworming early.  Now I'm wondering if we can get it. . . 

My suggestion would be to act quickly...if you have a source you can get it from, besides your vet, nows the time to get it. 

I'm gonna try to order more tomorrow to finish out the next several cycles.   Thanks for letting us know.  

I have a tube. I'll sell it for 1.5 million if anyone is interested  " just kidding"  There is no way I would think about taking it. Geez my stomach is in a knot as it is cause I'm stressed like everyone else. Ivomectin would probably blow my stomach up & I'd be in so much pain I'd wish I'd die. 

I remember that! MDR1 gene 

Where is that vomit emoji when you need it... 

You girls should do some research before you get all upset.  Because if Ivermectin would kill you there should be  millions of dead people in third world contries from the last 40 years of useing it there.  Many cattleman have accidently gotten it into themselves and all they have done is wormed themselves.  Even my doctor has told me how they have used it for years in third world countries.  My local vet says he just puts 2.5 cc in orange juice and drinks it.  If you have dogs and cats in your house you have worms.

Only thing that "upsets " me is that it has to be pulled from shelves because of ignorance. I know ivermectin is widely used on humans. It's used to treat scabies in humans or other nasty parasitic infections. What upsets me is that it's even an issue to go grab a tube to deworm my horses and it's not there, even the Equimax, which isnt even pure ivermectin cant be left out on the shelves because some yahoo thinks hes going to cure or prevent himself from getting Coronavirus. Anything that gets put out like that on the media is going to cause this, and then it will be prevented from being purchased. It's a control thing. I say let them buy it, let them take it.... if someone is going to be that ignorant to try to treat themselves, by all means, be my guest, but there had better be a tube or 2 for me to get when I need to deworm my animals. 

Ivermectin can be toxic so proper dosing is critical.   Maybe Dr. Bear can explain that further.  Unlike Fenbendazole which is being used by many for cancer treatment,  ivermectin has a greater risk.  My Mom has been on Fenben for almost a year.   She was given a cancer death sentence a year ago and is still with us.   Is it the Fenben or the prayer?   Probably both.     This is a very interesting topic. :)

I didn't mean anything against you.  I went and got enough wormer for my horses for the summer before it got pulled.  I figured this was going to happen.  Big Pharma doesn't want people to screw them out of their profits so they make it sound like a human is totally different than any other animal.   So they price the wormer for humans at 1,000% higher than the same exact thing you can give  your horse,dog, sheep, pigs or cattle.  We have wealth to the rest of the world on average.

My chihuahua/pomeranian licked a drop off the ground after my husband dewormed a horse. Blind for 3 days, luckily she came out of it. It was so awful. We are very careful now.

The lady at the feedstore told me her friend started taking safeguard when she was diagnosed with cancer.. she did not do traditional chemo and radiation but used safeguard and is in remission and has been for over a year. I'm not sure about all that but I listened to her story. Maybe so.. i agree, big pharma would definitely have an issue with that. I do not trust FDA, big pharma and this Dr. Fauci at all. I'm not a conspirator, I promise, but I've been reading and following along, follow the money trail..... i came across a very interesting man and have listened to a few of his videos and what he has to say makes more sense than what we are being told. If you want to know who it is, pm me and I'll tell you, you can watch or listen or read and decide for yourself if hes full of bologna or possibly on to something. And for the record,  I do not believe anyone on this forum would be stupid enough to actually try to treat themselves for this virus with ivermectin lol! I'm talking about the person who has absolutely no idea what ivermectin is and what it's used for predominantly, running to their nearest farm store and asking for it... most livestock folks know exactly where to go look in the stores for it. TSC is the first place they would go because they are very accessible and probably where those same people went to buy 30 chicks and are wondering why they arent getting any eggs yet 

I was just in our local Tractor Supply and they had a full supply of various kinds of wormer including ivermectrins.

Our store (tsc) pulled a few days ago. I know cattle customers were pretty upset that we had no ivermec for their herds. Unfortunately people are crazy enough to do things. It's why msm and dog dewormer can't be out because people use it to make meth. 

So is it just pulled from the shelves and you have to ask for it?  Or is there none to be purchased?

I normally buy my dewormer from my vet to support them, but with everything going on this year, my plans changed. I just walked into Runnings today and they had plenty of dewormer on the shelves, all kinds including ivermectin. They did, however, have a sign that it is for horses only and NOT for human consumption.

I grabbed 4 boxes for the 4 horses I need it for, and off I went.

As far as I know (I didn't see the memo but someone shared it on fb the other day) its a stop sale. So we will not be selling it, at least for know. Not sure when it'll be back. 

Its back on the shelves at our TSC. With a warning sign saying it's not for human consumption and will not prevent treat or cure covid-19 .
