I have had similar thoughts - how am I meant to know that it is legitimate Ivermectin? I’ve noticed that the ones I have at present taste sweet when I put them in my mouth to swallow them and I have no idea if they should or not.
emma421, I tried to private message you with that information, but IMA would not let me do that without first friending you, and you did not acknowledge my request to do that. Because I can relate to your situation, I felt empathy, and I wanted to help, I was willing to share what I know. If you don’t want it, that’s totally up to you. But, before you throw it out, you should at least get right what I said to you.
Jeerima does NOT manufacture ivermectin. It markets Ivervid, manufactured by Fortune Healthcare Product Pvt Ltd. FHPPL private label manufactures for many marketers. Many ivermectin manufacturers – even big ones like A. Menarini – will contract with independent manufacturers to make their own Ivercop. Although I don’t know for sure, I suspect that India’s largest generic pharmaceutical manufacturer, Sun Pharmaceutical Industries, Ltd., does the same with its in-house brand Ivermectol. Because of its name and added trust, Sun Pharma commands a price for Ivermectol that is eight to ten times the price of Ivervid in India – though still only 1/2 to 1/4 of the price in the U.S. or Canada. (Just as there still are people who pay more for Bayer Aspirin than they will for NoName aspirin.)
I buy nothing without a COA. The COAs you get in Canada or the US are likely the same you would get in India. If you did not get a COA with your Iverheal, you don’t have even that level of comfort about what you were receiving. But, even then, you may recall my telling you that then you have to wonder whether the COA is counterfeit. Unless you want to pay the $2000 to a lab to do your own COA, you will not get the level of certainty that you want. What can we do about it? Ask God.
Where would I find the COA of a drug? Would it be on the insert that comes with the drug?
Thanks.
PFVF, I did accept your friend request a few days ago. I’m not certain why it wasn’t processed, unless it takes time.
Thank you for the additional information on ivermectin from India. The Jeerima Ivervid did not include a COA. There was no package insert whatsoever. I searched online to see if there was any COA information on this brand of ivermectin, and could not find anything. Why wouldn’t COA information be available if the Ivervid was analyzed and legitimate?
You mentioned that Fortune Healthcare and Sun Pharma manufacture much of the ivermectin in India, but this doesn’t guarantee that others aren’t making counterfeit ivermectin. People are still claiming to have bad reactions to some of the Indian ivermectin, and some are questioning the ingredients because the pills they receive taste like sugar.
I will try to friend you or accept your friend request again. Are you a doctor or do you have inner circle knowledge of pharmaceutical manufacturers in India? If not, I would hesitate suggesting people trust anyone’s personal instincts or gut feelings about the legitimacy of a product that could be detrimental to their health.
Please know that I deeply appreciate your information in response to my query about safe ivermectin. However, following incredulous deceitful and manipulative communications from one India Mart vendor (Bless International), it is difficult to know who to trust.
Hi @emma421 , should be immediate. There’s nothing from our admin side that needs authorization etc. Just fyi.
I ask for it. When I have ordered direct from manufacturer, I have had no problem getting it, except from very large Cipla who, I was told, only supplies the COA to bulk purchasers of its Doxicip doxycycline. Cipla is so prominent as to be like the Mayo Clinic, saying, “Just take our word for it.”
To me, exporters are suspect if they can’t provide a COA. But, legitimate distributors just may not want to go to the added trouble for small orders, or they may have difficulty matching up the COA with the batch they are sending you. I have found trivial differences in the COAs between batches from the same manufacturer, but I order the batch for the COA that the vendor provides, assuming it’s not stale.
emma321, REPEAT: “October 12, 2025 at 3:34 pm EDT – 'Sorry to hear of your bad experience with IndiaMart, which marketing site I think is highly disreputable; but that does not mean every vendor you might encounter on the site is equally dishonest. For what it’s worth from a LAY PERSON, I will tell you what I have learned that may be helpful.”
I have no credentials; those are with MD Anderson, Sloan Kettering, Mayo Clinic. The fact that you are taking ivermectin tells me that you already have discounted their credentials, which credentials tell us that we are nutcases who have been duped into thinking that a worm medicine can help us treat cancer. They place us among the suckers whom the charlatans in Mexico bilk after we decide that Mayo Clinic no longer is helping us. We are in a difficult situation, surrounded by people who only care – if we are not the sultan of Dubai – whether our insurance is up to date.
I cannot confirm whether Blessing International is a charlatan (though an unconfirmable physical address and young business age might not bode well), or whether the Ivervid you got was fresh and was stored below 30 degrees C; or that in the United States, you might buy counterfeit Levis, Nikes, or Rolexes. I can only tell what I know, and what I do to lower risk.
I would add that if you search Indian manufacturers of ivermectin, you will find that there are scores of them. When the Indian government dispensed ivermectin free to its citizens during covid, the cost was reported to be about 2 cents per dose. Ivermectin is so cheap, it hardly seems worth risking prison to counterfeit it.
We’re happy to share another update following our announcement earlier.
We have now received and reviewed the Certificate of Analysis (COA) for our Fenbendazole products from Astonea Labs — the same certified manufacturer we recently partnered with.
Both strengths — 222 mg and 444 mg — passed all quality checks, including identity, uniformity of weight, friability, disintegration time, and assay.
For example:
- Fenbendazole 222 mg (Batch ADT252099A) shows an assay result of 104.63%, friability 0.14%, and disintegration in 9 minutes — all fully compliant.
- Fenbendazole 444 mg (Batch ADT251435B) shows an assay result of 99.69%, friability 0.14%, and disintegration time of 6 minutes, also fully compliant.
We are attaching both COAs here for your reference.
If you’d like to purchase Fenbendazole, you can find it on our official website:

If you have any questions about purity, dosing forms, or batch details, feel free to ask — we’re here to help.
Just looking up the Certifiers https://www.astonealabsprivatelimited.com/, I asked them if they offer certifying as a service, their contact page forwarded me to Indiamart. They also don’t have Ivermectin or Fenbendazole as a product. So as always due diligence please with all providers.
Thanks for checking that, Greg.
We also noticed that the Indiamart listing comes up in Google results, but we can’t confirm that the page you found is actually connected to the manufacturer that issued our COAs. It may simply be a reseller profile using a similar name — we have no way to verify its authenticity.
The official international website of the manufacturer that provided our certificates is:
That’s the only site we reference when verifying batch information and documentation.
Greg, I don’t see how Astonea Lab’s referring you to their Indiamart web site answers your question; but, I suspect that they do contract COAs, as do a lot of other manufacturers with labs – even if they don’t make the product being tested.. Some manufacturers do the COAs for their own products. In an apparent move to add credibility of third-party testing, sometimes they will get someone else to do the COAs. But, I have found that some of these “third-party” testers have related investors, or past close relationships, including contract manufacturing relationships. The whole process is pretty loose, and requires a lot of faith in Indian oversight authorities, market forces, integrity of the people involved in the process.
The subject COAs here are for FBD brand fenbendazole, which reportedly is manufactured by Healing Pharma. I have asked Healing Pharma where their contract manufacturing plant is located, but I have not yet received an answer. Maybe it is near Astonea Lab’s plant, which is the same shown in Astonea Lab’s corporate web site and their Indiamart web site. I think its main claim to fame should be that it is right next door to Damaira Pharmaceuticals!

@PFVF Thank you. All points made fair.
Comment posted 29 Nov 2025. Until 2 Dec. there is a Black Friday sale for Ivermectin and Mebendazole at a site found on Dr. Makis’ website. Ivermectin Starting at $3 per Capsule - All Family Pharmacy
If you want US compounded products, this deal is the cheapest I found (India sources are still much cheaper). I bought, but have not received thus can not test: Mebendazole in unique 200mg pills which is about 1/4 the price of the compounding pharmacy I have used when you the buy 1 get 1 free Black Friday deal. Includes a doctors script for $20.
Thanks @Hayden1
Thank you for sharing the interesting breakdown. The entire COA trail appears to be somewhat convoluted. If Healing Pharma responds, I’m interested to hear their thoughts as well. It would undoubtedly help dispel some of the ambiguity around these vendors.
Thanks everyone for the thoughtful breakdown — it really highlights why due diligence is so important in cases like this. We never rely on a single document or source either. At minimum, we cross-check the manufacturer’s official site, verify batch data, compare the COA structure against previous batches, and follow up with direct inquiries when something isn’t fully clear.
Given how common contract manufacturing and outsourced testing are in India, it’s not surprising that the COA trail sometimes looks convoluted. That’s exactly why multiple points of verification matter.
We’ve also sent a follow-up request to our supplier and are currently waiting for Healing Pharma’s response regarding this specific batch and their contract manufacturing setup. Once they clarify those details, a lot of the ambiguity should clear up.
@jessica6601 — you made a good point about how the COA chain appears. If Healing Pharma does reply, I agree it would go a long way toward settling the remaining questions. We’ll share any updates here as soon as we receive them.
Is there American-sourced Ivermectin online yet? Now that Texas and three other states are allowing OTC?
There are tons of US sources if you are willing to pay the outrageous prices they are asking for. I’m waiting for MFN and TrumpRx to kick in to see if we actually get the price of IVM down to 10 cents per pill instead of $1 per pill.
Lets hope for the best! What are we seeing for prices where it is going OTC? I will be in Arkansas for a visit soon, would like to snag some while we are there.
