My only love is my mom and she is diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer please help me does ivermectin and fenbendazole work doctor are not giving good response
I've used both Ivermectin and fanbendazole on the farm to kill parasites in animals. While ivermectin is licensed for human use, fanbendazole is not and in animals dosage has to be carefully monitored to avoid liver damage you would not wish to add this to your mums current woes. There have been no cancer trials on these drugs. A good balanced diet can improve day to day wellbeing. With advanced cancers like both me and your mum have there is often no cure. We have to live life as comfortably and as healthy as we can. There are many things that can be done to help achieve this. Talking with mums care team is the first step towards this.
Hello Sahil B and welcome to the Cancer Chat community.
I'm very sorry to hear your mom has been diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer. I can't begin to imagine how devastating it must have been to receive this news but I'm glad you've reached out to us as so many of our members will know what you're going through, and I can see you've already received some lovely words of support and advice from Farmer Ed.
I can see you've asked about ivermectin and fenbendazole. Whilst these drugs have been approved for the treatment of infections in dogs caused by some parasitic worms and lice, as well as skin conditions, there is currently no scientific evidence or research to suggest that they can be used in humans for cancer treatment or to cure cancer.
There is also no scientific evidence that alternative diets can treat or cure cancer either. Eating a balanced diet is always recommended but if your mom is considering making any changes to her diet, make sure you speak to her medical team or dietician about this first as they will be able to advise and let you know if it's safe for her to do so as it could have some unwanted side effects and possibly interfere with any conventional treatment your mom may have.
We know how much you love you mom Sahil and that you want to do all you can for her, but many untested drugs or alternative therapies can be very dangerous and can actually do more harm as they are unregulated and haven't been tested in the same way as conventional cancer treatment. You can find out more about alternative therapies and the safety of alternative therapies on our website.
I know this is a lot to take in so if it would help to talk things through with one of our cancer nurses, they're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m. They're very insightful and will do all they can to answer your questions and support you at this very difficult time.
