Ivermectin is a well-known FDA-approved pan antiparasitic drug with high safety profile and potential therapeutic effects against COVID 19.

It has been previously investigated as an antiviral agent. It showed 5000 fold reduction of SARS COV 2 viral RNA in-vitro studies.

However, some researchers questioned its efficacy in the oral form as very high doses will be required to achieve a proper tissue concentration and viricidal effect in the respiratory system.

Our hypothesis is that, since COVID-19 has shown to be particularly damaging to the respiratory system, using inhaled forms of Ivermectin will deliver the drug directly to the infection site and make it a treatment option.
