How Does Ivermectin Work?

Ivermectin (Generic Stromectol) is prescribed to humans against roundworms that are localized inside or outside the intestine, in tissues and organs. This drug helps get rid of ascariasis (roundworm), enterobiasis (pinworms), trichocephalosis (whipworm), strongyloidiasis (threadworms), filariasis (filaria), onchocerciasis (onchocerca). Not prescribed for treatment of tapeworms and flukes. Also effective against ectoparasites: pediculosis (lice), demodicosis (mites).

The drug is available in the form of tablets and suspension. It contains the active substance Avermectin, which is released during the life of the bacteria Streptomyces avermitilis. It has a paralytic effect on the nervous system of parasites, blocking the transmission of impulses. As a result, they lose mobility and die, after which they are eliminated from the body naturally. There is no need to take a laxative after taking the drug.
