Fenbendazole (brand names Panacur C ®, Safe-Guard ®) is a veterinary medication introduced in 1974.
Worldwide, veterinarians commonly use fenbendazole, FBZ, to treat a variety of parasites in animals, such as tapeworms, hookworms, roundworms, lungworms, and whipworms.
Fenbendazole has been known to have a high safety margin for animal use as it is tolerated well, has low side effects, and has a low degree of toxicity.
Following anecdotal fenbendazole cancer success stories, researchers have been experimenting with the “repurposed” use of Fenbendazole for cancer – for animals and humans.
Drug “repurposing” is a new use for a medicine that is different from the original medical indication. Though the Fenbendazole studies are limited, what researchers have found so far is promising for patients with cancer.
Fenbendazole for Pancreatic Cancer
Despite the initial effectiveness of certain chemotherapies, pancreatic tumors frequently develop resistance to these treatments. Moreover, newer methods like immunotherapy have struggled to address this challenging disease effectively. All of which has led researchers to turn their attention to Fenbendazole as a possible treatment. And while there is a great need for further studies, early evidence is showing great promise.
The cancer cells in pancreatic cancer behave in a very specific way when it comes to getting energy and nutrients for their growth. They use special ways to process glucose, amino acids, and lipids, which helps them grow and spread quickly. Scientists believe that the key to using fenbendazole effectively in treating pancreatic cancer lies in figuring out how the drug targets the behavior of these cancer cells.
Fenbendazole for Breast Cancer
One study published in March 2023 investigated Fenbendazole’s ability to treat Breast Cancer while preserving healthy breast cells. This research tested the drug on three cell types: normal, low metastatic cancer, and highly metastatic cancer cells. The findings revealed that Fenbendazole induced significant stress in the highly metastatic cancer cells compared to the others. This suggests Fenbendazole could offer a new, targeted treatment for advanced breast cancer
Fenbendazole for Colorectal Cancer
Colorectal cancer occurs when cells in the colon or rectum grow out of control. Treatment typically involves a combination of surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. There have been a few very promising studies that looked at how these cells responded to fenbendazole.
Tests showed that fenbendazole not only caused cell death in the cancer cells but also stopped them from growing by blocking a specific stage of their growth cycle.
They also found that the resistant cancer cells behaved differently compared to normal cancer cells. They didn’t respond as much to a natural process called autophagy, but they were more sensitive to another process called ferroptosis, which involves cell death due to iron overload.
This suggests that fenbendazole could be a promising treatment for cancers that are resistant to 5-fluorouracil, a type of chemotherapy medicine that is often used to treat colorectal cancer
Fenbendazole for Lung Cancer
Perhaps the most well-known case of someone treating their cancer with Fenbendazole is a man named Joe Tippens was diagnosed with lung cancer in 2017 and given only a few months to live.
Tippens developed a protocol combining Fenbendazole with CBD oil, curcumin, and Vitamin E which proved successful for his case. He remains cancer-free today and his story has sparked interest in pursuing more in-depth trials of Fenben as a repurposed drug.
In principle, a molecule can act as an antiviral drug if it “inhibits some stage of the virus replication cycle, without being too toxic to the body’s cells.” [20]
The possible modes of action of antiviral agents would include the following:
(1)
Inactivate extracellular virus particles.
(2)
Prevent viral attachment and/or entry.
(3)
Prevent replication of the viral genome.
(4)
Prevent synthesis of specific viral protein(s).
(5)
Prevent assembly or release of new infectious virions.
The role of ivermectin against the SARS-CoV-2 virus
The targets of activity of ivermectin can be divided into the following four groups:
A. Direct action on SARS-CoV-2
Level 1: Action on SARS-CoV-2 cell entry.
Level 2: Action on importin (IMP) superfamily.
Level 3: Action as an ionophore.
B. Action on host targets important for viral replication
Level 4: Action as an antiviral.
Level 5: Action on viral replication and assembly.
Level 6: Action on posttranslational processing of viral polyproteins.
Level 7: Action on karyopherin (KPNA/KPNB) receptors.
C. Action on host targets important for inflammation
Level 8: Action on interferon (INF) levels.
Level 9: Action on Toll-like receptors (TLRs).
Level 10: Action on nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) pathway.
Level 11: Action on the JAK-STAT pathway, PAI-1, that could be involved with COVID-19 sequalae.
Level 12: Action on P21 activated kinase 1 (PAK1).
Level 13: Action on interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels.
Level 14: Action on allosteric modulation of P2X4 receptor.
Level 15: Action on high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1).
Level 16: Action as an immunomodulator on lung tissue and olfaction.
Level 17: Action as an anti-inflammatory.
D. Action on other host targets
Level 18: Action on plasmin and annexin A2.
Level 19: Action on CD 147 on the red blood cell (RBC).
Level 20: Action on mitochondrial ATP under hypoxia on cardiac function.
The direct “antiviral targets” may be useful in the early stages while the anti-inflammatory targets might be addressed in the later stages of the disease.
Abstract
Considering the urgency of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, detection of new mutant strains and potential re-emergence of novel coronaviruses, repurposing of drugs such as ivermectin could be worthy of attention. This review article aims to discuss the probable mechanisms of action of ivermectin against SARS-CoV-2 by summarizing the available literature over the years. A schematic of the key cellular and biomolecular interactions between ivermectin, host cell, and SARS-CoV-2 in COVID-19 pathogenesis and prevention of complications has been proposed.
Introduction
A relatively recent surge in zoonotic diseases has been noted over the past few decades. Several reasons could be responsible for this “spill-over” of disease-causing agents from animals to humans. These include an exponential rise in the global population causing man to encroach new ecological habitats in search of space, food, and resources as well as improved opportunities for rampant wildlife trade causing interspecies pathogen jumps. The 1980s was known for HIV/AIDS crisis that originated from the great apes, while the avian flu pandemic in 2004–07 came from the birds. The pigs led to the swine flu pandemic in 2009 and bats were the original hosts of Ebola, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), Middle Eastern respiratory syndrome, and probably SARS coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) outbreak as well.
COVID-19 has already caused millions of deaths worldwide and has paralyzed not only the world’s healthcare system but also the political and economic relations between countries [1]. The fact that the SARS-CoV-2 virus has been thought to have originated from wildlife and may have “jumped” into humans, not only highlights future risks from animal-borne diseases but also provides an important clue to its resolution. In such a scenario, where this “jump” has been made from animal to human, it seems only logical to review a drug that has worked efficiently against a disease-causing agent and is available in a form that is safe for human consumption since the early 1980s.
Ivermectin belongs to a group of avermectins, which is a group of 16 membered macrocyclic lactone compounds discovered at the Japanese Kitasato Institute in 1967 during actinomycetes cultures with Streptomyces avermitilis [2]. This drug radically lowered the incidence of river blindness and lymphatic filariasis and was discovered and developed by William C. Campbell and Satoshi Ōmura for which they received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2015 [3, 4]. Ivermectin is enlisted in the World Health Organization’s Model List of Essential Medicines [5].
Drug repurposing, drug redirecting, or drug reprofiling is defined as the identification of novel uses for existing drugs. The development risks, costs as well as safety-related failure, are reduced with this approach since these drugs have a well-established formulation development, in vitro and in vivo screening, as well as pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles. Moreover, the first clinical trial phases of many such drugs have been completed and can be bypassed to reduce several years of development. Therefore, drug repurposing has the potential to reduce the time frame for the whole process by up to 3–12 years and carries great potential [6].
Although several drugs received emergency use authorization for COVID-19 treatment with unsatisfactory supportive data, ivermectin, on the other hand, has been sidelined. Nevertheless, many countries adopted ivermectin as one of the first-line treatment options for COVID-19.
With the ongoing vaccine roll-out programs in full swing across the globe, the longevity of the immunity offered by these vaccines or their role in offering protection against new mutant strains is still a matter of debate. Thus, the search for new, effective antivirals continues.
Several doctor-initiated clinical trial protocols that aimed to evaluate outcomes, such as reduction in mortality figures, shortened length of intensive care unit stay and/or hospital stay, and elimination of the virus with ivermectin use have been registered at the US ClinicalTrials.gov [7]. Controlled clinical trials using ivermectin are underway, including one being conducted by the National Institutes of Health (ACTIV-6) [ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04885530] in the USA and a second in the UK (PRINCIPLE) [ISRCTN registry: ISRCTN86534580] [8, 9].
Ivermectin has rapid oral absorption, high liposolubility, is widely distributed in the body, metabolized in the liver (cytochrome P450 system), and excreted almost exclusively in feces [4]. Following a standard oral dose in healthy humans, it reaches peak plasma levels at 3.4–5 h, and plasma half-life has been reported to be 12–66 h [10]. Despite its widespread use, there are relatively few studies on the pharmacokinetics of ivermectin in humans [11]. Ivermectin binds strongly to plasma proteins in healthy subjects (93.2%) [12]. Such an “avid binding” can be beneficial when administered in countries where malnutrition and hypoalbuminemia are common, leading to increased availability of “free fraction” of ivermectin [4]. Hypoalbuminemia is a frequent finding in patients with COVID‐19 and it also appears to be linked to the severity of lung injury [13]. Therefore, ivermectin could have sufficient bioavailability when used in such a setting.
This article aims to discuss the probable mechanisms of action by summarizing the in vitro and in vivo evidence demonstrating the role of ivermectin in COVID-19 based on the available literature over the years (Table 1). A schematic of the key cellular and biomolecular interactions between ivermectin, host cell, and SARS-CoV-2 in COVID-19 pathogenesis and prevention of complications has been proposed (Fig. 1).
In this candid video, I share my personal journey exploring an unconventional cancer treatment - Joe Tippens' fenbendazole protocol. During the process of being diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer but before formal diagnosis, I uncovered Joe's remarkable story of putting his late-stage small cell lung cancer into remission using fenbendazole, a common deworming medication for animals.
Inspired by his case, I decided to try incorporating fenbendazole into my treatment plan alongside other supplements like curcumin and CBD oil, just as Joe had done according to the protocol he published in 2022. However, my results were mixed - while what were potentially lung tumors seemed to respond, I soon developed aggressive new liver metastases.
In this first video of a series, I provide all the details on Joe's original protocol components, how I implemented it personally, the positives and negatives I experienced, and my overall thoughts on fenbendazole's potential role in a comprehensive metabolic approach.
Whether you're exploring all options as a cancer patient/caregiver or just interested in Joe's viral story, this video is my transparent first-hand account. The next video will dive deeper into the Science behind fenbendazole, exploring the potential anti-cancer mechanisms and research behind this dewormer drug.

but the cancer had only spread further

incredible post on an Oklahoma State
1:10
message board from a veterinarian

alumnist call me if you've got cancer
1:15
the vet told Joe how his research
1:18
scientist friend at MK had inadvertently
1:21
cured mice of cancer after worming them
1:23
with fendol a common deworming compound
1:26
the scientist herself then used fendol

and was cleared of her stage four G gleo

this was my kind of story like Joe I'd

with my stage 4 pancreatic cancer my

Research into antiparasitic drugs agreed
2:32
Fen bendol showed potential for

pancreatic cancer though par bendol
2:37
actually seem more effective for

pancreatic cancer specifically I tried
2:41
unsuccessfully to obtain parb benzol
2:44
before settling on the more accessible
2:46
fend Bend resol combined with other
2:48
supplements and off labels that I was
2:49
taking at that time Joe's protocol was
2:52
originally fenben every 3 days on four
2:55
off with thumin vitamin E and CBD oil
2:59
later adding fermented wheat germ and
3:01
berberine he credited positive thinking
3:04
as key I took fendol with avocados for

3:10
curcumin and lowd dose CBD alongside
3:13
other off labels this was when doctors
3:15
suspected stage 4 pancreatic cancer

potential benefits really required 500
3:53
milligrams I only took the 222 milligram
3:56
dose 3 to 7 days per week until August
4:00
when low blood pressure after chemo
4:02
forced me to stop all off labels and
4:04
reset my mixed feelings stem from my
4:06
cancer aggressively metastasizing to my
4:09
liver soon after starting F bendil in
4:13
hindsight I didn't have all metabolic
4:15
pathways blocked nor was I protecting my
4:18
liver with milk thistle so when the lung
4:21
tumors may have initially responded I
4:23
think Fen Bend resol potentially allowed
4:26
the cancer to spread to my unprotected
4:28
liver however overhauling my protocol
4:31
which still included Fen Bend resol led
4:34
to significant tumor reductions on my
4:36
next scan overall I've stepped away from
4:38
most off labels for now and I've had my

best results without them but I'm open
4:42
to revisiting fenol as part of a

appreciate the messages of support

I came across your video--was not looking but it "stands" out and have seen the affects of pancreatic cancer, parasites etc.
1. The average pancreatic duct is a "protected" hotel for Liver Flukes, where they lay thousands of eggs, endlessly your entire lifetime....protected because of no blood flow in the duct and the duct is almost always "blocked" with mineral "stones" that act like a door protecting the Liver Flukes.
When Russia was building the first zappers so humans could stay in space with out "swelling-up", one of the first side affects was curing diabetes. I discovered that when taking the internal zappers properly 3x, on the second pass, often people expel a fist size amount of Liver Flukes following a flow of rock hard stones that flushed out of the pancreatic duct and pictured the stones and worms for Dr. Hulda Clark long ago...
2. Clark proved gold fillings affect the pancreas health badly leading to cancer---she was 100% correct.
3. A full mouth full of crowns and metal fillings is certainly asking for cancers.
4.If you have cancer anywhere, you had it first in the liver...when they tell you liver cancer "after" years of treating cancers elsewhere, they often say your hopeless once they do tell you your liver is full of it.
5. PARASITES---you surely have 3# of Lyme and never know it, all the endless other parasites will die easily in comparison to Lyme; Lyme has been the last great plague for the past 300 years and entered into just about everything with blood above and below the water.
6. Animal / Drug / Heavy Metals to kill worms----does not cure cancers and diseases, they are just "toxic" substances....professional / gimmick websites can not change cancers--- WHEN they are n ot addressing the endless reasons for cancers and "IF" parasites cause cancers and poisons that kill parasites is the cure for 1 of the deadliest cancers known---WOW, the cancer industry would crumble and all the hospitals would empty as everyone went on chemicals--- no one can take a poison and expect better health, what they can expect is that the poisoned blood cells defend themself and they kill/dissolve/expel parasites.
7. Not that long ago, every house had a very toxic parasite killer--- farmers used it to treat their horses, dogs, cats, kids.....vets still today use it for dog heart worm---injecting it in the front legs for 3 days-----it is always used by drops going up daily and then coming back down--because it is extremely toxic, but not long ago, every house had it in their bathroom---but after bad people used it to kill people they did not like---it became outlawed and only the vets use it....
8. Back in the days every family had the most powerful parasite killer known--- they also were plagued with cancers.
9. Cancers and Parasites: The parasites feast on the rot. They thrive on slow / low oxygen death.
10. 4th stage pancreatic cancer is no small deal and for anyone to survive after they did chemo-----is rare. Great M.D. always said no one do chemo after age 50, just for the fact it is too toxic for old people. Poisons can never cure anything, they just "force" a response.
11. The best cancer M.D. 15 years ago, said if you want to survive pancreatic cancer in America, you must leave America and got to China. Others will say Russia--both use a completely different approach. He said "if" your in america and want to try--1 M.D. in Texas doing extreme Pancreatic Hormone therapy has some success, but ignoring all the foundational problems and supplying hormones is insuring the pancreas will close down and become dependent on the synthetics..
12. Pancreatic Cancer ends up with orange colored eyes, degradation of the face and body and requires "STINTS" in the pancreas to allow the worms and fluids to flow out and down into the intestines and instantly their eyes lighten up as it drains down and out...and during that time period, is when people discover thy may need to pull every toxic tooth in their mouth. Stop all the toxic foods/drinks/drugs...stop everything bad....
13. the idea a person can continue what caused their cancer and just take some de-wormer----would be in the "Miracle" Class and YES, that happens;
"IF" a person believes--------their subconscious will CURE any disease, all cancers......you will become what your truly believed in..... long ago called POW WOW or just faith healing. The brain can make you or break you; we are what we believe.
SO YES, some scary cat, dog, horse de-wormer powders can indeed aid you to cure yourself; medical proved that over 100 years ago; Jesus proved it over 2,000 years ago, Elijah, Enoch etc. long long ago understood The Miracle Cure.
BEWARE animal products, the commercial types often ad poisons as a method to stop human consumption. EXAMPLE, Lugol'sIodine often used for animals, but they ad chemicals so no human can use it and actually, Lugol'sIodine since Dr. Lugol Synthetically made it in the 1800's was/is toxic and no human should ever touch it.
BE GLAD your miraculously self-cured; but something seems very fishy when you have the ability to make fancy websites.....
The Curezone foundation was all about Dr. Hulda Clark , I knew her well (enough) and her dental info surely saved allot of lives......I do not care how much magic powders a human consumes---if their dental disaster is the root cause for their cancers..that cancer is never staying away until all that rot is out and even then---the accumulated dental poisons in the cells takes years to cleanse...
Dental Disaster takes 100% of your immunity 100% of your day, every day until you die---by design. YOUR BLOOD will never stop dissolving your dental poisoned teeth and that fact, allows cancers to develop....it takes a professional dentist/dr that can cut all your rotted teeth out in 1 day...and those rotted teeth will be so dissolved they will break into pieces and take a full day for just 1 person...as cancerous puss oozes out of the jaw..
Then BEWARE! When the surgeons discover you learned how to cure pancreatic cancer and they replace your pancreatic stint with a permanent stint and say your next check up with be 1 year....do not be surprised that you never ever eat again--due to an aggressive Thrush that resulted from "dirty" instruments and they say--whoops, our bad. Go to your local hospital and get a thrush shot and if you make it past 3 days after your last ever stint--that would be a true miracle... "they" don't those that learn how to beat their system.
If your lucky enough to stop a cancer with a simple poison--use that time to CLEAN UP the dirty body....
The Hormones must be helped with true hormones---not synthetic /animal hormones...true hormones make old people act like they are young.
Case Studies of Fenbendazole and its Effects on Cancers
Case Report: Squamous Cell Carcinoma, age 80, Female
Surgical biopsy, oral fenbendazole then topical fenbendazole eradicates squamous cell carcinoma
'Fen Ben' - a substack publication Sep 28
Fenbendazole Can Cure Cancer presents Case Reports of people who have treated their own cancers along with other articles to help understand how fenbendazole works to treat cancer.
Previous articles covering other cancers are in the Archives link.
According to the Mayo Clinic, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin is a type of cancer that starts as a growth of cells on the skin, originating in cells called squamous cells. Squamous cell carcinoma is a common type of skin cancer. Squamous cell carcinoma of the skin is usually not life-threatening. But if it's not treated, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin can grow large or spread to other parts of the body.
Squamous cell carcinomas can appear anywhere on the skin. In people who sunburn easily, the cancer is usually found on areas of skin that have had a lot of sun. In people with black and brown skin, squamous cell carcinomas are more likely to be on skin that isn't exposed to sun, such as the genitals - which conflicts with the notion that topical UV radiation is the primary cause.
The following Case Report is submitted by the daughter of an 80-year-old woman who had a persistent lesion on one of her fingers. Initially diagnosed as a basal cell skin cancer that diagnosis was revised to squamous cell skin cancer after biopsy results. After about a 3 month course of systemic (oral) fenbendazole treatment, with a topical component added about one month into the treatment, the lesion is completely healed.
Hi Ben,I've followed the Substack for a while and was curious enough to buy FenBen powder from the LITHUANIAN supplier. No one had cancer but I thought it would be good to at least use it as a dewormer and do a 3 day clean out of any parasites every few months. Hopefully, this would also provide some protective benefits from any cancers. As "luck" would have it, my 80 year old mom was diagnosed with a basal cell carcinoma (later revised to squamous cell) of the finger. For several years (she says about 4) the finger has bothered her.
(my comment- could this Lithuanian supplier be the Fe Ben Lab product that has been so brutally discredited by Happy Healing?)
She thought it was an injury that wasn't healing well because it was in her knuckle. Combine that with thin ageing skin and she would regularly knock the sore open just as it seemed to be healing. Over the past year it had been getting infected on a regular basis. It would scab over, heal slightly but still be stiff and painful. A slight bump and it would burst open oozing yellow pus. She saw her GP as no amount of bandaging and antiseptic lotion seemed to effect any healing. Travacort and an oral fungicide were prescribed. No improvement.
They then dipped a swab and off the back of finding bacterial growth she was given a course of Antibiotics . It almost seemed to worsen with a nasty open wound causing her tremendous pain in the finger joint. She saw a nurse at the local hospital wound clinic who scraped it all clean, bandaged it up and strongly suggested she request her GP do a biopsy as “sores which don't heal over several years are suspicious”. This was duly done and it proved to be a basal cell carcinoma (later revised to squamous cell).
The problem now was how to excise it. On a joint. No skin left to suture and she's 80 years old. He said to leave it a couple of weeks as he was going to be away and he would give it some thought as to how to proceed but it would likely require in hospital treatment and anaesthesia to be able to do a skin graft. This worried me greatly as mum is 80.So I went over to her with the FenBen powder and told her she was going to be the family Guinea pig. At worse she'd be thoroughly dewormed and there might be some benefit. I have attached 3 photos. The first is the sore on the day the biopsy was done. Call it Day 1 and you'll see the pus and raw nature of the sore.
Day 7. Looking vastly improved and she had no pain for the first time in over a year.
Day 21. The last photo is taken 3 weeks after the initial oral dose of powder. 222mg as dosed by the little spoon in the tub. Taken daily with cheese or something fatty.
As you can see, the skin has healed over. She has free use of the finger and there is no pain.
She's had no obvious side effects from taking the Fenben.
She's seeing her GP on Tuesday next week and I'm keen to hear what he says. Hopefully he won't mess with it and we can go back in a few months once the new skin has matured and do a follow up biopsy.
Hope this is interesting to you! She's not the best of photographers but there's clearly been a massive improvement. We are so grateful to you for posting these self studies!
Follow-up 5 weeks later
My mother saw her GP not long after I last emailed you and he seemed quite surprised to see how well the finger was doing and ascribed it to the fact that when he'd previously seen her, that he had cut some of it out when he sampled for the biopsy and put the stitches in. She mentioned the FenBen and said he was reluctant to believe that it had anything to do with it but he had to concede that it was looking very good and all plans to surgically remove the carcinoma and do a skin graft under general anaesthesia could be shelved. For now.... I suspect he thinks it will be back.
Since the wound had closed completely she has been applying FenBen paste topically every day (Panacur “horse dewormer”). She leaves her finger exposed to the sun and fresh air as much as possible, putting a plaster over when she goes out as she’s worried about knocking the new skin open after years of pain.
It continues to look good with no external signs of infection, no pain in the affected area or joint and the skin has healed beautifully. Really quite astonishing given how many years this carcinoma has had to eat away at the skin and being 80 it’s quite thin without any extra stresses on it.
Mom says she sometimes imagines there might be a small amount of the cancer left as she sometimes “feels” like there's “something” moving around under the skin but this is as likely to be residual deep tissue damage resolving itself as it is any cancer. She says it tingles sometimes but this really does seem more likely to be healing than cancer. The sutures she had a few months ago have also left a bit of lumpy skin. There’s no way she will biopsy the area to confirm if the cancer has gone, as there's just no obvious reason to traumatise healthy looking skin.
I've attached photos of the finger as of today. I'm not sure of where you are in the world but it's midwinter here so her skin does look a bit dry but that's the weather.
As far as we can see, there's no cancer left. She has had no obvious side effects from taking the FenBen and will continue with it both orally and with the topical cream. I bought her a milk thistle supplement but only because I read there could be effects on her liver and if she's been clearing the cancer it might be a good thing. Just me fussing there was no obvious reason to do so!

Mom went to see her GP today. He says he's not convinced the cancer is gone and wants to carry on with an excision off the back of the pathology report, which I have attached. Since he excised some of the carcinoma when he took the biopsy sample, he feels this is the reason for the improved appearance. I'm not so sure .... cancer sores don't get better as far as I'm aware!!
In any event, the full diagnosis is attached. Seems it’s a squamous cell carcinoma and there's also some signs of Bowen’s disease and solar elastosis.
We're about 2 months down the road treating a 4 year old tumour. At the age of 80, I honestly believe my mom should leave it alone and continue with the Fenben and just see where it goes. I find it hard to believe there's a festering tumor underneath all that healthy new skin as she has full use of the finger and has no pain at all. At any other point in time she would not be seeing a GP......

It's been 3 months now and my mom's finger seems to have healed completely since we last corresponded. In her words "If you didn’t know history you’d never guess".
NEW ARTICLE: MEBENDAZOLE and Thyroid Cancer - Inhibits tumor growth and prevents lung metastasis - shocking new Johns Hopkins research on Fenbendazole's sister drug
In a 2020 paper by Johns Hopkins researchers led by Tara Williamson, Mebendazole halted Anaplastic Thyroid Cancer and shrunk Papillary thyroid tumors.
For those of you who know, Anaplastic Thyroid Cancer is one of the most aggressive cancers that exist.
"The purpose of this study was to determine if mebendazole could be repurposed to effectively treat thyroid cancer, in particular before metastasis."
"In vitro, mebendazole potently inhibited the growth of a panel of human papillary and anaplastic thyroid cancer cells"
"In aggressive anaplastic thyroid cancer cells, mebendazole significantly repressed migratory and invasive potential"
"In vivo, mebendazole treatment resulted in significant papillary thyroid tumor regression and growth arrest of anaplastic tumors, with treated tumors displaying reduced expression of the proliferation marker Ki67 and less vascular epithelium"
"Most importantly, daily oral mebendazole prevented established thyroid tumors from metastasizing to the lung"
"Given the low toxicity, this novel preclinical study of mebendazole has promising therapeutic implications for patients with treatment refractory papillary or anaplastic thyroid cancer."
As I continue to do Cancer Consultations, I've been approached by a number of Thyroid Cancer patients who have run out of options.
Seeing the tumors shrink in mice like this is something you don't see everyday and is shocking and impressive.
While Fenbendazole and Ivermectin get all the glory for being the top repurposed drugs for Cancer today (including COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine Induced Turbo Cancers)
it's important to remember that Fenbendazole's sister drug Mebendazole also has a vast body of preclinical research that is, in many cases (including this one), absolutely stunning.
I had a lot of anal itching in 2015. Unfortunately, in 2020 pinworms get into the nose and lungs. I often feel tightness in my chest. I've tried albendazole, bendazole, praziquantel, ivermectin (but not with food). Who knows of any other drugs that can kill bugs outside the gut? Thank you very much!
I believe my children have Tapeworm infection. I have a bad infection myself and believe I passed it to them in utero or through breastfeeding. Both my 4 year old and 2 year old can eat like I’ve never seen children eat. They lick their plates and eat crumbs off the ground. I can eat LOT as well. What concerns me is that my 4 year old (who cannot speak well due to apraxia) has these subcutaneous nodules on her stomach and legs that look just like the picture I’m attaching of scattered cysticercosis. She has already been on niclosamide a year ago and became extremely constipated and then passed something nasty. Since then she’s also been on alinia several times for cryptosporidium. She’s done Humaworm and herbs, but the extreme hunger remains and she’s getting more nodules. So my question is - can other parasites cause subcutaneous nodules? And does a Tapeworm infection in a child need to be treated as extensively as in an adult?
So I am having difficulty getting rid of a parasitic infection I have a so called non cancerous tumor in my rectal area paranemium has holes in it and underneath is prolapse. It starts out with yeast like growth on hand and feet so I get cream well and take a regime of supplements. The holes are seriously bothering me I am almost convinced some kind of silk worm that turns into a type of winged parasites moth like that but I don’t know for sure have picture
Can I use fenben for my children? My 4 and 2 year old have several parasites. We live in mold. I’m so stressed about how to treat them as they cannot tolerate herbs due to MCAS. They are chronically starving all the time, have major stomach issues, etc. A biofeedback machine shows they have schistosomiasis, hookworm and Giardia. I don’t want to creat resistance but also don’t want to hurt them with harsh medications. I don’t know what to do! Any advice appreciated.
What is under my skin? These bifurcated black suckers appeared 2 weeks after I saw white worms/larvae around the edges of deep oval wounds on my arms and lower legs. This is a screenshot of a video where I couldn't remove the blood fast enough to show all of them. There are more pairs under the blood drops.
