Iverzine 6 mg 24 tablets

Composition:

Each tablet contains ivermectin 6 mg.
Excipients include Avicel, sodium starch glycolate, aerosil, and magnesium stearate.

Product Description:

• Ivermectin is a broad‑spectrum antiparasitic agent used in both medicine and veterinary practice.
• It disrupts the transmission of nerve impulses in parasites, leading to paralysis and death. 
• The tablets are highly effective against roundworms but do not eliminate tapeworms or flukes. 
• Ivermectin is also used for scabies and pediculosis in individuals with intact immunity. 
• The drug is rapidly absorbed and reaches maximum blood concentration within four hours. 
• It is evenly distributed in tissues, enters the eyes in limited amounts, and is eliminated mainly through the intestines within twenty‑eight hours. 
• Despite its wide spectrum of action, the toxicity of the drug is relatively low when dosage recommendations are followed.

Indications for Use:

• Demodicosis.
