Original Note:
No proof that the dog deworming drug fenbendazole can cure human cancer. While some studies using cancer cells in petri dishes and mice suggest fenbendazole could be effective against cancer, there’s a lack of evidence that it’s effective in people. https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2023/feb/20/facebook-posts/no-proof-dog-deworming-drug-fenbendazole-can-cure/ https://healthfeedback.org/claimreview/lack-clinical-evidence-dog-dewormer-fenbendazole-cures-cancer/
