How it works

• EVIMECTIN-12 DT contains ivermectin, a broad-spectrum antiparasitic medication that:
• Binds to the nerve and muscle cells of parasites, resulting in enhanced chloride ion permeability.
• Results in the paralysis and subsequent demise of the parasites.
• Effective in combating both internal parasites (intestinal worms) and external parasites (mites, fleas, scabies).
• It specifically targets parasitic organisms without impacting human nervous tissue.

Medicine Interaction

Refrain from merging with:

• Warfarin and other anticoagulants may elevate the risk of hemorrhage.
• Carbamazepine, phenytoin, or valproate—may diminish the efficacy of ivermectin.
• Other antiparasitic medications or corticosteroids may elevate the risk of adverse effects.
• Alcohol or sedatives—may increase vertigo or drowsiness.
• Consistently notify your physician of any additional medications or supplements you are currently using.

How to use

• Typically administered as a single dose or in accordance with your physician's instructions.
• Consume with water on an empty stomach.
• As it is a dispersible tablet, it may also be dissolved in clean drinking water prior to administration.
• Refrain from chewing or crushing unless explicitly instructed to do so.
• If you neglect a dose, administer it at the earliest opportunity unless it is nearly time for the subsequent dose.
• Do not administer additional doses without consulting a healthcare professional.
