How do I get a doctor invite for Push Health? I don't have a PCP, live in Houston. Was there a doctor on the boards who can assist?
Yes, everytime you ask for a refill or a prescription, its considered a "doctors visit" and will charge $65.SanDiegoAG said:
I just recently used Push Health and got a prescription filled. I didn't know how many to ask for and only put in for a quantity 50 pills. Do you have to pay another 65 bucks to get another prescription filled? Or is there a different place to do a bulk order?

I did mine through a CVS out here. The doctor that prescribed it set it up as 25 pills with a one time refill. I was hoping to do mine as a preventative for right now but seems like it's hard to get that many prescribed especially when I have to take 5-6 per dose. Thanks for the replies. Always appreciate it. And hope you've been feeling better.
I'm assuming Push Health gives you the proper dosage for human consumption. Realizing you could do your own math if you bought OTC at feed store but I would actuallly prefer to have a doctor do the math for me.AggieUSMC said:
can't you buy ivermectin at feed stores?

for those who have taken it, does Invermectin help speed up the process of getting taste/smell back?

Maybe ea1060 can confirm my assumption on if proper dosage provided by PushHealth. Can't imagine it wouldn't be, obviously.

Very low chance your Doctor will not prescribe it to you. Most doctors do not think its a suitable covid treament.mrmill3218 said:

Wont you still have to pay a co-pay regardless if you visit a local doctor in Houston? Thats basically what the $65 Push Health fee is.Skillet Shot said:
Can anyone let me know the doctor that prescribed ivermectin in Houston? That way I can avoid the $65 middle man fee. I'm looking to get some as a prophylactic and to have some on hand in case myself or a family member is exposed.
Basically, there aren't any clinical trials that support it.Quote:
This is the current guidance for ivermectin and covid19:
Most recent update(s): The Infectious Diseases Society of America's COVID-19 guidelines suggest against ivermectin use outside of the context of a clinical trial in outpatients or hospitalized patients with COVID-19. The guideline panel states that additional, sufficiently designed clinical trials are needed to inform decisions.
The National Institutes of Health's COVID-19 guidelines panel indicates that there are insufficient data to recommend for or against the use of ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19 and that results from adequately powered, well-designed, and well-conducted clinical trials are needed to provide more specific, evidence-based guidance.
As part of our response to the evolving COVID-19 pandemic, published literature and guidelines from major health organizations are continuously monitored for potential content updates. At this time, only investigational medications with data determined to be of relatively high quality and/or consistently showing positive clinical outcomes to support dosing recommendations will be included in the monograph, outside of this Special Alert field.
