“Is there any interaction between hip cortisone shots and ivermectin?”
I’m getting steroid injections in my bursa on July 12 and I’m wondering if there’s any kind of drug interaction with ivermectin.

Not that I'm aware of. Cortisone is a steroid anti inflammatory. Although applied locally, it may exert systemic effects. Ivermectin is an anti parasitic drug with efficacy against the Covid 19 virus. Often used as a preventative and treatment for infested symptomatic patients. The combination of Ivermectin 0.1mg/lb. Single dose initially repeated at 72 hours with Zithromax Z-pack and steroids (decadron, prednisone, solumedrol). Have been documented to reduce morbidity and mortality by greater than 50% in Covid cases. Ivermectin 20 mg once a month has been claimed to prevent Covid infection.
