Hi Lettuce. It was 100% the ivermectin so be careful. She had been on prednisone for years off and off and never had such a terrible reaction.

She had very little response to Fenben.

I lost my little girl on 12/6/23. The lymphoma moved to her pancreas and she went within a couple weeks. I did take her to a Tesla bio healing center and she had great response - Walking and doing better than she had since it metastasized but I got her there too late. I spoke to the owner and learned that it takes about 3 months of bioenergy healing to change the events of cancer and I just got her there to late. I kick myself when I think that I could have taken her 3 years before and I believe I could have saved her. Since then I have done much research into energy healing and even now have a successful youtube channel with lots of alternative healing info that I'm learning. I hope that you will check it out. All my best to you and your beautiful baby.

I shared this with a friend of ours about 8 months ago after he announced a fundraiser for his dog, a 2 y/o German Shepard. He had been diagnosed with lymphoma. They were trying to raise $25,000 for his treatment. They went through with the treatment plan and a bout of sepsis occurred after a few weeks. He recovered temporarily and he just passed away at the end of August. So all that money for nothing. We have a 7 y/o female German Shepard. I recently asked our vet about switching her heartworm prevention meds to ivermectin. They’ve had her on a preventive called Interceptor. It’s a monthly medicine and quite expensive. The vet said it works for other parasites as well. So no to ivermectin. I do believe the vets, like physicians get a a kick back. No money to be made off ivermectin or fendbendazole.

My dog was adopted from a medical foster home who took her out of a kill shelter. She had had a litter of pups, kennel cough and adult heart worms. The medical foster group only treats dogs using the gentle treatment which is ivermectin. She had been treated for 4 months. It wasn’t supposed to kill the heart worms, just knock them back. When I got her I took her to the vet and she was heartworm free. Imagine that! Her weight went from 60lbs to 80, her desired weight. So ivermectin is also a miracle drug for our dogs.

I have a 6 month old puppy who has just been diagnosed with intermediate - high grade lymphoma with masses in his lung and abdomen. We are meeting with an oncologist tomorrow to discuss possible treatment options but I’m really keen to start him on fenben. I’m super unfamiliar with it all so wanted to just ask and see if anyone knows whether giving him fenben alone would be enough? Or if he would also require any additional medicines, e.g. turkey tail, milk thistle, cbd oil as well as what diet would best help to fight the cancer? He has been fed a high quality raw food diet his entire life as well as turkey tail so we are extremely shocked at the diagnosis.

How to get started?

I didn't notice any interaction but the efficacy began to wane and she began having breathing problems so I took her to the vet on July 14 and the lymphoma had moved to her sternum so luckily, our vet said to try l-aspariginase and mustargen which put her into remission again. We are holding everything but the prednisone right now and she's still in remission. Taking it one day at a time.

I am so happy to find out that I can enhance and extend my pets life through your work and diligence. I have been taking FenBen for prophylactic purposes myself to prevent cancer. My husband was diagnosed with Follicular Lymphoma. He will get his last PET Scan report from the doctor tomorrow after a course of Chem (his decision). He had a clear scan after two Chemo treatments. If it is not the same tomorrow I plan to try to encourage him not to take more Chemo and try this. I have had chronic gastric issues all my life, nausea, diarrhea, bloating and discomfort constantly. Since I did Ivermectin cleanse and then started Joe Tippen's Protocol I have had absolutely no gastric issues, had tons of energy, no joint pains, and clear and sharp mind, all at 80 years old. I was on antidepressants off and on for years, but have not needed them at all since self treatments. Thank you for your wonderful site!

It is now the middle of June and our sweet pointer Daisy who was given 2 weeks to live in December is still with us 6 months later. We have had her on goat pancur 4 times a week and ivermectin twice a week. Though subdued she has remained happy and eating well and wagging her tail with no problems. However, in the last 3 weeks she has experienced much weight loss ( skin and bones) and seems to sleep much of the time. Something changed. We aren't quite sure what to do because she is in a different phase now. We stopped the Pancur for a couple of weeks to make sure it wasn't the medicine killing her appetite. She continued not to want to eat. We have now graduated to expensive special food and morsels attempting To get more calories into her. Having owned dogs for almost 70 years I've walked this road before, where you start getting more and more desperate and feeding them tastier and tastier your food from a spoon begging them to eat. So I'm under no illusion that she's going to live forever. She is 14- 15 after all even when she was diagnosed with hemangio ( sp) sarcoma last December 2022. I'm struggling with whether to continue the pancur and ivermectin now. I'm not sure it is going to make much difference and we want her to get maximum calories. From this point on we want her comfortable and loved. She has wildly exceeded her prognosis. I'm still very glad we have done the treatments since December.. Regardless of what the future holds

Our story. Miss Tillie, our chinese crested/yorkie mix was diagnosed with stage 4 lymphoma in April of 2020. She was given 30-90 days without chemo. We started her on traditional CHOP therapy. The lymphoma responded well and they stopped her first course early.

She stayed in remission for 5 months. We continued traditional chemo for 2 more remissions and during her 3rd remission, we believe she was given a rabies shot at a kennel, in spite of a letter from our vet saying that the vax could push her out of remission. In any event, we picked her up and she had lumps again. We took her back to our oncology vet and the only chemo that seemed to be working was the Doxorubicin so they gave it to her. Unfortunately, she had an anaphylactic reaction and it was her 5th dose anyway so she can not have the only chemo that really worked again. That one shot did put her back into remission for another 5 months.

After hurricane Ian destroyed our home, we had to move into a small trailer which I'm sure was stressful for her and she came out of her 5th remission. Since she couldn't have the Doxorubicin anymore, the vet started her on a newly approved drug called Laverdia. It was effective for just a few weeks so I started her on Ivermectin on December 26, 2022 at a very low dose and titrated her up. She was doing very well even when we stopped the Laverdia.

On April 1, 2023, she seemed to hit a plateau so I started her on Fenben 200mg/day (Shes only 8 lbs). I continued just the Fenben for about 2 weeks until April 21st when I switched her back to Ivermectin because the Fenben didn't appear to be as effective.

This time I increased the Ivermectin from 0.25mls to 0.3mls per day. After about 4 doses, she began to have neurological side effects. (shaking, jerky and unsteady). I discontinued the Ivermectin after the 2nd day of jerking and gave her a 3 day cleanout from all meds. The jerking and unsteadiness stopped.

She was acting like a pup this morning chasing the cat and barking like crazy but the lumps had more bruising and had increased a bit in size so this morning I put her back on the Fenben 200mg.

I am sooooo grateful for the 3 years we’ve gotten but I’m not going to give up on her and I am determined to try to cure this monster. My dilemma is whether to continue on the Fenben alone because maybe 2 weeks wasn’t long enough to see a response or to give her the Fenen with intermittent or daily doses of Ivermectin since it seems to work within days. Since they work by two different mechanisms, dual dosing may be the key,

I am a retired pharmacist and would love to review the mechanism of action of both drugs as well as the bioavailability if anyone has links. That’s the story of Miss Tillie’s lymphoma so far. I remember the day she was diagnosed. We were devastated but thanks to the “off label” uses of these drugs, we have had 3 great years with her. Don’t give up. I am confident that I can get her stabilized again. I don’t like giving anything but herbs on a long term basis but if it keeps our girl going and doesn’t severely affect her quality of life, I will continue it forever. Finding the appropriate dose is a challenge. BTW, she is on nutritional supplements as well - Sunrider Nuplus (a combo of herbs that my hubby and I take daily) with a mushroom complex, flax, and astragalus root.

Her diet is home made pescatarian because of the high omega 3’s in certain fish and because the evidence in the China Study (a human study) that cancer cells can literally be turned on and off by the content of animal protein. Since dogs are widely used in human studies, I decided to minimize her animal protein so every other batch I add salmon to her homemade food. Also of note, I have noticed that stress seems to be a factor in pushing her out of remission and daily walks/exercise seems to be beneficial in keeping the lymph system moving. I hope that some can benefit by our 3 year (so far) success fighting lymphoma and any input is greatly appreciated.

You really should follow Joe Tippens protocol and others. I am just guessing basically but somehow she is still here. But i know you want to know. So...Daisy is 40 lb pointer. 4 days a week we put 1 teaspoonful of Safeguard liquid goat dewormer 10% suspension over her food. This = 6 ml of the oral suspension. I think the suggestion is now to do it 7 days a week but we've just stuck with 4 days a week. Then I put a tiny dab of ivermectin horse paste on her food twice a week. The tubes are calibrated to a 250 pound increments usually. So I try to do 1/5 of that which is basically a small dot smaller than a pea. I use the same dose recommended for most mammals. 91 mcg per pound. The papers I've read on both of these substances suggest they work in 2 different ways against cancer. Since I felt like we had nothing to lose, I went ahead and did both. It could be that Fenben by itself is just as good. As far as I can tell she has had 0 negative side effects. I began them a week apart so that if she did have a problem I could perhaps tell which medicine gave her the problem. But she had no problems.I will warn you, even armed with calculators and the instructions right in front of me, it gets very confusing figuring the difference of milligrams mg and micrograms mcg and grams g and milliliters ml and microliters mcl..mind blowing. My husband decided on the teaspoonful instead of syringe. She eats it readily on her food. I was concerned that if I made the dose even larger it might get to the point where she would begin to reject it. At this level she's still alive, she eats her food easily, and that's about the best we can do. Please keep me posted on your little furry creature. I'm so sorry you're having to come to this site. Again I pretty well made up the dosage Daisy is on and please understand that!

My 5-year-old dog was diagnosed with lymphoma last week, with every lymph node extremely swollen. Fortunately, I had been reading about fenben curing cancer in humans elsewhere on the web and researched the dosage info for dogs. Our veterinarian said the prognosis was 3-6 months without chemo (which he does not recommend). I talked to him about fenben and he said he doesn't think it will work, but to try it if I want. I gave our dog doses on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Today is Monday and the lymph nodes on his neck have reduced to about 1/3 of the original size. After each dose, there was significant reduction after only about two hours. I'm going to give him four days off and start another round. Hoping this continues!

Thanks for creating this substack. I'm loving the articles and comments!

Is Fenbendazole by prescription only?

She continues to be just fine. If I did not know she had a tumor around her heart, I actually would not know. I continue to treat her and I really don't have any way of knowing what is working, but something seems to be working. She has exceeded the predictions by several months now. First collapse Nov 22. "Two weeks to live" soon after Christmas. I am also not sure i am dosing her ideally. I am using the goat panacur liquid, 6 ml. I squirt it on her food. She is ~ 45 pounds and a 50 lb dose of ivermectin horse paste ( tiny bit). As long as she continues to have a good appetite, wag her tail, explore outside, act happy, i will continue. I am sorry about your sweet Sheltie. Don't have regrets, i know you did everything and your pup knew too.

I'm sure it is written somewhere but I can't find it and I'm new to this site. For the canine cancer, is the dose the same no matter what size the dog is? I have a 40 lb dog. And do you give that dose every day from then on? Or do you give it for a set amount of time? My dog has Hemangisaroma on her heart. Just since last night I'm afraid she is in quite a bit of pain. I'm actually considering on euthanizing her today. But if this might help I'm willing to try. I just want to get it right. There's nothing to lose. Thank you

The case studies here indicate that fenben alone is all that’s needed. Other substances aka Tippen protocol, are not necessary. Prednisone mediates inflammation so it is most likely irrelevant to the anticancer effects of fenben.

Does anyone have any experience or knowledge regarding the use of fenbendazole alongside prednisone? Wondering what the outcomes have been for dogs using this traditional "treatment" along with the fenbendazole.
