Composition1 ml of preparation contains active substance Ivermectin – 10.0 mg;
Pharmacological propertiesActivee ingredient of the preparation is Ivermectin belonging to compounds that are produced by microorganisms of group
Streptomyces avermitilis. Mechanism of product action on parasites is in Ivermecti stimulation of secretion of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in presinaptic neurons, which binds to specific receptors of nerve endings by increasing membrane permeability to chloride ions and blocking the transmission of neuromuscular pulses. It causes paralysis and death of parasites.
Ivermectin has high efficiency and broad spectrum of action (insecticidal, acaricidal and nematicidal activity) and has relatively low toxicity. Ivermectin is not effective against trematodes and tapeworms because GABA does not work at them as a peripheral neurotransmitter.
