What is Ivermectin?
Active Ingredients: Ivermectin
Ivermectin Oral Solution is an antiparasitic drug used to treat internal and external parasites in livestock animals like camels, cows, goats and sheep. It is indicated for infestations of certain types of gastrointestinal roundworms, lungworms, and nasal bots. Ivermectin is an effective parasiticide for many common worms, including Barber's Pole Worm.
Ivermectin is within the family of medicines called anthelmintics. It is derived from avermectin, and it works by inhibiting some functions of the nervous system within the parasite. This leads to its paralysis and then the death of the parasite.
It is important to note that Ivermectin Oral Solution is for veterinary purposes only.
