Pretoria - The public will finally know tomorrow exactly how they will be able to use ivermectin if they so wish in the treatment of Covid-19.
But Judge Cassim Sardiwalla called the parties to chambers later, as he wanted them to negotiate one consolidated order rather than four different orders on the same subject. It is said that the effect of the registration is that medicines containing ivermectin may be compounded and made accessible in accordance with the provisions of Medicines and Related Substances Act.
A doctor can ask a pharmacist to compound a medicine containing the registered component of ivermectin or issue an Article 21 application to the health watchdog, asking on an individual basis that a patient be allowed to use the drug.“We all know that Covid-19 is a dangerous disease and unfortunately there is no single wonder drug that can defeat the pandemic on its own. The most important factor in the fight against Covid-19 is every person’s immune system.
