Ivermectin was approved by the FDA in 1996. https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/nda/96/050742ap.pdf Doctors may prescribe drugs for unapproved uses. https://www.fda.gov/patients/learn-about-expanded-access-and-other-treatment-options/understanding-unapproved-use-approved-drugs-label The FDA settled due to the court ruling they can only inform, announce, and apprise. Not endorse, denounce or advise. Any medical advice by the FDA is beyond its authority. https://www.courthousenews.com/fifth-circuit-sides-with-ivermectin-prescribing-doctors-in-their-quarrel-with-the-fda/
