How is Ivermectin functioning?
Ivermectin’s working mechanism is a two-step operation. Firstly, the worms or microorganisms that cause infections are paralyzed. Secondly, it destroys and contributes to an effective cure for these bacteria, parasites, or microorganisms. In addition to this, Ivermectin slows down the causative organisms’ replication rate and improves the healing process. Thus, when using Ivermectin for treatment, patients with parasitic infections see early recovery.
How is Ivermectin used?
Ivermectin tablets are taken orally with a glass of water on an empty stomach. Make sure you drink a lot of fluids while receiving Ivermectin treatment & avoid caffeine. Ask your doctor if you need more advice on the dose.
