Mebendazole and ivermectin combined to 275mg? The typical ivermectin dose alone is .2mg/kg, so a 180lb/81.5kg person would only take 16-ish mg. So this person took way more ivermectin than needed for a parasitic infection (and stupid for taking it without one). Mebebdazole is 100mg/x2 a day, so this is more than double the dose for a single recommended pill.
Just in case anyone wants to know how much not to take.
In India, you’re supposed to take albendazole 500mg/mebendazole 400mg every year to handle any parasites you may have picked up. I’m 99% sure the issue is with his ivermectin, not his mebendazole.

But what if they had 17 parasitic infections to remove?
i think ever since covid ivermectin has become a magical cureall for idiots, and the more the betterer as far as the dosage goes.
Pity it isn’t curing us of idiots.
This dude knows his horse dewormer…
Almost as if it were designed for the weight of a small horse…
