Ivermectin is not an approved or recommended treatment for multiple sclerosis. It has no established role in managing MS symptoms or slowing disease progression.

There are many FDA-approved disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) available for MS that have been rigorously tested for safety and effectiveness. These fall into a few categories:

Infused treatments:
- Ocrelizumab (Ocrevus)
- Natalizumab (Tysabri)
- Alemtuzumab (Lemtrada)

Oral treatments:
- Fingolimod (Gilenya)
- Dimethyl fumarate (Tecfidera)
- Teriflunomide (Aubagio)
- Cladribine (Mavenclad)

Injectable treatments:
- Interferon beta-1a (Avonex, Rebif)
- Glatiramer acetate (Copaxone, Glatopa)

It's always best to speak with a neurologist or MS specialist before trying anything not specifically approved for MS. Sticking to evidence-based treatments helps ensure safety and the best possible outcomes.
