Ivermectin and Lyme Disease - Testimonial and Research (2025)

Some people are curing debilitating Chronic Lyme Disease symptoms with Ivermectin. In 2013 the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced that Lyme disease is much more common than previously thought, with over 300,000 new cases diagnosed each year in the United States.

That makes Lyme disease six times more common than HIV/AIDS, 20 times more common than hepatitis C virus infection and 30 times more common than tuberculosis in the United States.

A study by an international team of researchers has found persistent infection despite antibiotic therapy in patients with ongoing symptoms of Lyme disease. “Our findings address a major controversy over persistent symptoms in Lyme disease,” said Marianne Middelveen, lead author of the published study. “The results suggest that infection with the Lyme spirochete may persist in some patients despite supposedly adequate antibiotic therapy.” The study was published in the open access journal Healthcare (2018).

How does Ivermectin factor into Lyme disease and why are some having success with it?

A new study sheds more light on Ivermectin's anti-inflammatory properties in Rheumatoid Arthritis.

In a 2023 study by Khan et al called: "Evaluation of therapeutic potential of Ivermectin against complete Freund's adjuvant-induced arthritis in rats: Involvement of inflammatory mediators".

32 rats with Rheumatoid Arthritis were tested and ivermectin was put up against dexamethasone (a strong steroid):

Treatment with ivermectin showed a significant reduction in inflammatory cells levels, body weight, and visual arthritic score, indicating an improvement in the degree of inflammation as compared with the diseased group.

Ivermectin treatment also showed a significant reduction in the severity of inflammation and destruction of joints and showed comparable effects to dexamethasone, a corticosteroid used for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis

Conclusion: “Ivermectin has significant anti-arthritic properties and can be a novel treatment agent for the management of rheumatoid arthritis patients”.

Ivermectin for Lyme Disease Case Testimonials

Case No. 2: New York patient living in Taiwan, suffering from LYME DISEASE

Dr William Makis shared on X.com in February 2025:

IVERMECTIN Testimonial - New York patient living in Taiwan, suffering from LYME DISEASE becomes completely symptom free after 2 months of Ivermectin! 

Once again, changing MEDICINE, one testimonial at a time! Who else is going to? Ivermectin and LYME Disease. 

"I was diagnosed with Lyme a few years ago when I was in New York. I have visited eastern and western medicine practitioners, nothing helps."

My recommendation: 
"Ivermectin - Start with 0.5mg/kg/day of body weight...do it for 2-3 weeks and then let me know. I would then increase the dose". 

RESULTS: 
"I've successfully done 2 months of Ivermectin 36mg daily. I feel I am free from all "lyme" symptoms. I am now actively looking for a job, for I feel I am fit to work again. Huge relief. I used to be exhausted 24/7. I used to have constant joint pain in all my joins that restricted my movement for past few years, so much so that I had to ask my wife to help me put on my socks and button up my top button. But now I'm doing light exercises...I got proper mobility back" 

MY FAVORITE PART: 
"I wish to thank you Dr.Makis for guiding me through this, I really appreciate you. I hope you get recognized for all the work you've been doing out of the kindness of your heart for people around the world".

"I was waking up every 2 hours with numb limbs" "I had such bad joint pain that I could hardly move"

Then she started taking Ivermectin. (By this point, those of you who know me know where this story is going) 

"Within 7 days the numbness was down to only my fingers"
"Within 3 weeks it was almost completely gone"
"After 3 months of Ivermectin, I felt better than I had in years"
"I know that it saved my life"

What did Justin Timberlake say about Lyme disease?


“If you’ve experienced this disease or know someone who has — then you’re aware: living with this can be relentlessly debilitating, both mentally and physically,” Timberlake wrote on Instagram in July 2025.

“When I first got the diagnosis I was shocked for sure,” he continued. “But, at least I could understand why I would be onstage and in a massive amount of nerve pain or, just feeling crazy fatigue or sickness.”

The Grammy-winning singer said the diagnosis forced him to consider stopping touring but added: “I decided the joy that performing brings me far outweighs the fleeting stress my body was feeling. I’m so glad I kept going.”

During the tour, Timberlake rescheduled a number of shows due to health issues.

Other celebrities have also spoken about their experience with Lyme disease, including pop star Justin Bieber and rock singer Avril Lavigne

What is Lyme disease and what is it caused by?

Lyme disease is spread by bacteria from the bites of infected black-legged ticks. It’s named after Lyme, Connecticut, where the disease was first identified in the United States in 1975.

In the United States, around 476,000 people across the nation are diagnosed and treated for the disease every year, according to recent estimates from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

While ticks that carry the bacteria most common in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, and upper-Midwest, those who work or spend time in grassy areas where ticks live are more likely to be at risk, as well as those who have pets such as dogs that can bring them home.

The disease is also common in Europe and in south-central and southeastern Canada.

What are the signs and symptoms of Lyme disease?Return to menu

For many people with Lyme disease, a common early sign is a rash, which may look like a bull’s eye and can itch or feel warm to the touch.

Other symptoms include fever, headache, fatigue and joint stiffness.

If it’s not treated, Lyme disease can cause more serious conditions including joint infection, nervous system diseases and inflammation of the heart.

Some people may also suffer from post-Lyme disease syndrome, which can cause ongoing nerve pain, fatigue and memory problems.

Lyme disease can be confused for other health conditions, and vice versa, so it’s important those who have symptoms speak to a health care provider.

Is there a cure for Lyme disease?

Most people who get Lyme disease make a full recovery after a few weeks of antibiotics. But there are no vaccines against Lyme disease — one shot approved in the United States was discontinued in 2002, with the producer blaming low demand.

But Pfizer and French pharmaceutical company Valneva are carrying out human trials for a new vaccine that could protect against North American and European strains of Lyme disease; Pfizer said last year that participants had received three doses and would be monitored until the end of the 2025 Lyme disease season.

The University of Massachusetts Medical School’s MassBiologics is also working on a seasonal preventative shot for the disease.

How can you prevent Lyme disease?

To avoid being infected with Lyme disease — or any of the other potentially serious diseases such as Babesiosis that ticks can transmit — it’s important to avoid getting bitten in the first place. That means wearing repellent, walking in the middle of trails and avoiding brushy areas where possible.

The Mayo Clinic also advises choosing light-colored clothing to help you see any ticks, avoiding open-toed shoes or sandals, wearing long-sleeved shirts and long pants and tucking clothing in.

After a walk, you should check yourself and your dog for ticks (You can find more information on avoiding tick bites and what to do if you find a tick on yourself or your dog here.)

It’s important to take precautions even if you’ve had Lyme disease before, as you can get it again.
