Are you aware that the product sold by Virex Health as “Petmectin” is actually Iverhuman 12? At least, that is what they sent me when I ordered from them. I learned only today that Iverhuman 12 tested as not containing the declared amount of ivermectin. I’m not only upset at the waste of money but very worried about the product I’ve been taking. None of us dealing with cancer can afford to take a worthless product that will provide no benefit.

You need to check into this.

This page lists all WHO-GMP compliant manufacturers- they just don’t do it in any way that makes it easy or makes sense. The earlier one I was trying to find at least allowed me to search by the different state names where manufacturers were located. And it wasn’t easy to navigate🙄

If I ever find it again I’ll post it here.

That is disturbing. I thought their products were 3rd party tested. I have bought 2 orders of petmectin . Now I’m afraid to trust it. Can you give a link for that testing?

Just curious. Were the products you received actually “PetMectin” or were they “Iverhuman-12” which is what I received?

I came across 3 different pages posted by TGA (Therapeutic Goods Admin. Of Australia). One is https://www.tga.gov.au/news/media-releases/tga-cautions-consumers-over-counterfeit-ivermectin I can’t find the other two pages at the moment, but had gleaned a list of several products manufactured in India that they claimed tested at less than full strength (Iverhuman-12 was one of those).

I actually emailed my concerns to Dr. Makis who just this AM responded to me that TGA put out fraudulent press releases about this - even said that bribes had been paid to smear Ivermectin. Doesn’t surprise me that this could have happened, but it still leaves an unsettling feeling about ivermectin products made in India (or anywhere for that matter) and whether they contain the amounts they claim to contain. A pharmacist friend confirmed that that can definitely happen. I have read other articles cautioning people to “do their own research” about various products. And even research papers that discussed this happening, though in those cases they didn’t not name the brands tested.

Sadly, whenever there is a demand for something our government refuses to freely make available here, there will always be scammers or those whose manufacturing processes are sub-standard trying to take advantage. Now I’m not sure what to think of some of the named products:(

Frustrating at best!

One thing I found helpful is a listing of WHO-GMP certified manufacturers in India, whose standards have to be up to certification requirements. The list is miles long but with some digging I did locate a few companies I was interested in. I will try to locate the site angain and post it here.

I was sent Ivertul-12. It is stamped “only for export”. Manufactured by tuli enterprise in India. They have a website that I haven’t checked yet. Tulienterprise dot com.
