Composition
-
Active Ingredient: Ivermectin 6 mg
Mechanism of Action
Ivermectin works by binding to glutamate-gated chloride channels in the nerve and muscle cells of parasites. This leads to increased permeability of the cell membrane to chloride ions, causing paralysis and death of the parasite. It is highly selective for parasites and has minimal effects on human cells when used at recommended doses.
