https://www.timeslive.co.za/sunday-times/lifestyle/health-and-sex/2021-06-23-oxford-university-trial-tests-use-of-ivermectin-as-covid-19-treatment/The University of Oxford said on Wednesday it was testing the anti-parasitic drug ivermectin as a possible treatment for Covid-19 as part of a British government-backed study that aims to aid recoveries in non-hospital settings.
Ivermectin resulted in a reduction of virus replication in laboratory studies, the university said, adding that a small pilot showed giving the drug early could reduce viral load and the duration of symptoms in some patients with mild Covid-19.

Ivermectin is often one of many drugs prescribed by a physician for a number of conditions it is known to be effective for, but might not have gone through FDA approval.

Conclusions:
Moderate-certainty evidence finds that large reductions in COVID-19 deaths are possible using ivermectin. Using ivermectin early in the clinical course may
reduce numbers progressing to severe disease. The apparent safety and low cost suggest that ivermectin is likely to have a significant impact on the
SARS-CoV-2 pandemic globally.
