BBC investigation reveals unproven cancer treatments being sold online
A BBC investigation has uncovered that animal dewormer fenbendazole and scabies treatment ivermectin are being marketed as unproven cancer therapies. Undercover journalists purchased these drugs from a stairlift salesman in Wales and found them for sale on Amazon. Medical experts warn that such treatments lack clinical evidence and could endanger patients by delaying conventional care. The MHRA and Veterinary Medicines Directorate have clarified these drugs are not licensed for human use. Personal stories highlight the dangers, including a woman who died after rejecting standard treatment in favor of these medications. Authorities have seized thousands of doses since 2024, emphasizing the risks of self-medication with prescription-only drugs. Experts stress the importance of consulting healthcare professionals rather than relying on anecdotal claims or online misinformation.
