Ebola experimental drug 'Nanosilver' is a pesticide US warns

Yesterday we heard that an experimental drug called 'Nanosilver' developed by a Nigerian in diaspora for the treatment of Ebola has arrived the country. (read here).

But now, despite the experimental drug getting approval for use by the World Health Organization (WHO), the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is claiming that Nanosilver is a pesticide

From Reuters
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration said on Thursday it has become aware of products being sold online that fraudulently claim to prevent or treat Ebola.
The FDA's warning comes on the heels of comments by Nigeria's top health official, Onyebuchi Chukwu, who reportedly said earlier Thursday that eight Ebola patients in Lagos, the country's capital, will receive an experimental treatment called nano-silver.
Silver has been used as an antibacterial for centuries. Tiny silver particles known as nano-silver have controversially been incorporated into a variety of consumer products such as socks and bedding to help block odors caused by bacteria and mold.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency considers nano-silver a pesticide. Manufacturers of products that contain it must register them with the agency.

Nano-silver is also sometimes sold online as a dietary supplement even though Danish researchers found in a recent study that nano-silver can penetrate and damage cells.

The FDA regulates dietary supplements and said in its statement that "by law, dietary supplements cannot claim to prevent or cure disease."

The agency said it had received consumer complaints about the Ebola claims.

"Individuals promoting these unapproved and fraudulent products must take immediate action to correct or remove these claims or face potential FDA action," the agency said.

The Ebola outbreak ravaging West Africa has claimed 1,069 lives so far. Most have been in Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia. Nigeria has confirmed 10 cases of the disease and four deaths.

    1. Don't mind US. How can WHO endorse a pesticide for human treatment? They refused to give 9ja their Zmapp. They should leave us with our alternative. I think they are buying time for better negotiations.

    2. You guys sound like illiterates. Zmapp has not been fully developed yet and therefore cant be sold. The one they gave those 2 Americans are just lab samples. The FDA is giving that warning so that whoever is exporting Nanosilver from the US would know that they're liable to prosecution.

  9. how can a food supplement be pesticide .The W.H.O actually approve the yet-to-be experimented nanosilver...but i guess with nanosilver ,Zmapp is not going to be a hit as predicted by the U.S.and hence.... You would not give us the ZMAPP and you will not let use any alternative.na waoo

  15. What is wrong with these people who always refer to Lagos as Nigeria's capital anyway?

    If WHO approved the drug, then what is the US saying? ?? I hope they aren't putting up this report cos a Nigerian produced the experimental drug?

    I still think the experimental drugs should be administered to the patients, better to make an effort, than watch them die helpless.

    Zmapp should be given to some of the patients, while Nanosilver is given to the others. While we watch and pray for positive results

  16. Linda and u believe this, what is in zmap dat we know Americans are giving out, we're did the Canadian get their own serum vaccine, nano silver has been in existence for long, just because Americans know that, nano silver cures a lot of illness in the body, and they know dey will loose billions of dollars if dey let nano silver come out, now they call it pesticides, very dirty politics, playing with people's life because of money, now our govt said they invented nano silver, yeye people, why won't dr rima be mad with dem, Shebi America turn dr rima down in 2009, now that she is becoming popular they call it pesticides, Linda have u noticed CNN did not even mentioned d word EBOLA for 2days now, so tell me who is deceiving who, Americans greed our govt stealing people idea, everybody is fighting for their pocket, it's only d daft they can dribble, them for kuku call hand sanitizer acid, GOD PLS FORGIVE US ALL OUR SINS, and put end to all dis

  33. Did anyone see my last reply to the post Linda made about that Nigerian-made vaccine/drug for ebola? I said it that these western countries would look for ways to disregard it so that we continue to look stupid & helpless towards them while our nations suffer such a deadly epidemic as the one they made in their labs. Screw these people. Let them go screw themselves. Nigeria is not a state in the U.S.,so let them keep their "stories for the gods" to themselves. I continue to insist that we as a people should learn to stop depending on other people & start developing our own solutions to our own problems. Africa must wake up.

  41. This is obvious that America just introduced Ebola in Africa just to make money by introducing their fucking ZMAPP medicine, and am sure they even paid that weeked Patrick Sewyer to transfer the Ebola to Nigeria , cause our president have already told Obama during one of their meetings that " FOR U TO FIXE AFRICA U HAVE TO FIRST FIXE NIGERIA" so for America to sale ZMAPP, they must first sale to Nigeria.

  42. See ehh, US should just not annoy me now! What's their problem? Desperate times call for desperate measures, so if they don't want to help with the situation, let them leave us to resort to desperate measures. They'd send ZMAPP to Liberia that gave us ebola and not Nigeria? And since when did a US citizen(Patrick Sawyer) consider Nigeria health care system to be the best?whatever happened to flying to America?

  84. I have always been of the opinion that sawyer was carrying out a USA govt plan to medically terrorize Africa and Nigeria in particular. If not why will sawyer travel all the way from Liberia to Africa's most populous country. the US has prepared the cure for this Ebola (vaccine or caplets) and is waiting for the disease to spread a lot so that their developed cure can be commercially viable. So where else should the disease be spread to in Africa except Nigeria? The USA is broke and iis looking for how to improve her revenue and reduce their very huge debt..just watch...the next target for Ebola spread is china with 2bn people and India with 1.4bn people...for me this episode is a US plan...now they are saying the drug a Nigerian sent down to his country is pesticide meanwhile we as a country begged them for serum they produced and they were stalling...mtchew. So they have seen a Nigerian made drug threading their 419 wicked plan and they are claiming the drug is not what it is....who even told the US that our own drug is arriving self? I am sure they have been spying on naija and getting some serious intel....let them go and sit down...God will make nano silver work...#kickebolaoutofnaija....

  92. Nigerian's are smarter also desperate when it comes to survival and we love money too. My own opinion lets use the nano silver first and stop waiting for messiah to come and save us from another country... we have medical doctors, we have researched institute, we have alot of herbs in the forest that cures diseases, Y can't we start appreciating the natural gift God gave us (Medical Dr should go into serious research )...China dwell on what they have... can't we see there economy...Please politicians ur children can't spend their entire life in another man's country... Help ur own country to grow,leave ur selfish desire and develop and value what we have....Nigeria is getting sour everyday lets wake up and do what is right for once... In summary, as long as the nano silver works we don't care what the name it bears...( a typical Nigerian wants solution, we don't care about formula or content. Does it work, Yes bring it)

  96. Gaddam US trying to exploit us as usual ! What if the content of zmapp and danosliver is the same? I think nigeria should be bold enough to try out our experimental danosliver . I really do not trust this Americans they are only trying to make money with zmapp ' so they need to make us believe it's the only cure for Ebola . Why do I even have this feeling that Ebola is a man made diease? How come no one is challenging the content of zmapp? Do we even know the content of zmapp? S.M.H for mother Africa .

  98. My people,am a M.pharm student currently studying in Uk.it breaks my heart to read ur comments.US is trying to help us.I believe the health minister will not use this drug.
    And linda,about what you said concerning approval,they NEVER approved the drug...the information was 'Following the approval of experimental drugs for treatment of ebola'...that nanosilver being among experimental drug can then been used.Silver is an alkylating metal that can stop replication of cells(ebola and others good cells in our body included).and nano means very small so it can penetrate inside cells well...common sense should tell us its going to be poisonous...if some people are recovering they should not recieve it please.About the zmapp,its an antibody and the available dose is limited and I believe they re producing more.am writing all these so that we can remove these hatred we ve for America scientists that is actually working hard for the benefit of the whole world and of course to make some profit that will help them finance future research.God bless u all.

  103. Hmm!! WHO certified it, FDA is saying something different. For all I care FDA is rambling. They said Pesticide ND antibacteria ND food supplement which one are we to believe?? I believe they used the nano to deal with sars ND its sisters. Meanwhile, we are going to administer d nano it will deal with all d bacterias in Ebola, and also it food supplement the patients.

  105. Well I sincerely believe that before a vaccine is approved it must have gone through some people like the WHO and maybe FDA before they can finally allow it to be sent to other West African countries not at its arrival that the USA will come up with the nigeria vaccine as that use pesticide or bad odour etc and that it must be registered why didn't they speak or say something when the WHO approved it, why now when the vaccine is already here please!! please!! they are very lame to bring up such a hilarious accusation on the vaccine they could do better than this. Afterall most countries are trying to create vaccines every idea is accepted and once the WHO approves it FDA can go and sit down

  106. Nano-Silver Is A Pesticide And Cannot Cure Ebola” U.S. Food and Drug Administration ? Lol!!!
    God of mercy! Could this be Sawyer's fault or Maku's?

    Decontee Sawyer, the widow of Patrick Sawyer – the Liberian who brought Ebola to Nigeria on July 20th this year – explained that her husband came to Nigeria with his Ebola infection because he believed he will get better healthcare and a cure for his ailment in Nigeria.Our minister of information, Labaran Maku had on April 2nd, two months earlier publicized that Nigeria was ready for Ebola and the Ministry had procured vaccines for Ebola. Of course, Nigeria could and should have vaccines for Ebola.
    We can afford to have sponsored local and even chartered foreign research companies and paid them to develop these vaccines for Africa 10 years ago, had it been we had our heads on right and thought about people over private jets.
    Quoting Mr. Maku in the media: “Nigeria is ready, because the Ministry has taken every precaution, including getting the vaccines and medicines in case there was any incident in Nigeria.
    “So far, there is nothing like Ebola fever in Nigeria, and Council was reassured that every step has been taken to ready our country just in case, infected persons come into the country from our neighbouring countries,” Mr. Maku said.

  110. If the Ebola experimental drug developed by a Nigerian in diaspora is classified by the U S as pesticide, U S Zmapp must be insecticide!

  112. Nigerians are the problem of Nigeria. a very sound mind once said Nigeria deserves the leaders she has and have had. Ignorance is the most destructive weapon. i am totally amazed at what my dear and fellow Nigerians have been writing here and how shallow our reasoning has become. Nanosilver is not a new compound and has been around now for years used in different capacities.
    1. nanosilver was not discovered by any Nigerian. it is Dr Lima that has been pushing its use for years now in dealing with HIV, Hepatits, Malaria, influenza virus etc. and it was made specifically for ebola
    2. WHO did not approve any particular drug or drugs for Ebola treatment, what WHO did was to lift the restriction on the use of experimental drugs in this time of outbreak when noting is known to be effective hence each country now have the prerogative to accept or do otherwise. if a country wishes to use acid no wahala if u so wish.
    3. why would the Nigerian government hide the name of the researcher? the company? the level or stage of the clinical trial. we should really ask the govt some very serious questions
    4. Lastly shame on Nigerian journalists it is during where the role of enlightenment and investigative journalism to furnish the populace with the real deal. all what they just do is collect news from NAN and paste verbatim. shame on them

  114. The WHO approved the use of experimental drugs so that drugs like zmapp can be used in Africa,WHO never approved nanosilver.
    Many people were asking why the drugs used on the 2 Americans cannot be used in Africa.Its because WHO which we re under previously does not allow experimental drugs to be used on people but FDA(US) has somewhere in their law that allows experimental drug to be used.
    They re mocking us because of our ignorance(salt therapy)...now we re accusing them stupidly..i bet you all .Nigeria minister of health will soon drop this Nanosilver..Am really surprise that going thru all the comments ,am standing alone.

  117. In my Personal opinion, I think that Ebola is a kind of biological weapon designated to frustrate africas growing economy, Nano Silver will cure Ebola and seeing the speedy castigation by the US government seems like a black eye. Wether they take the drug or not, Ebola is bad so the best way is to take the drug and if it cures the Ebola, then the US is finished!

  121. I think our minister of health is not competent enough for his position. He cant just seat there and take anything from anybody whether US or whoever. What were his conclusions based on? What stops him from verifying both claims. Simply take Ebola samples, get your lab pets and run both Nano & Ebola on them. Or are they too lazy to do that as well? Or is the Nigerian scientist no longer reachable? Then let him very his claims... After all WHO has given their mandate and that means GO SAVE YOUR PEOPLE HOW YOU WOULD!!! Na wah oh..Abi how you take know say Zmapp no be insecticide?
