Physical property A colourless clear liquid

Pharmacological action

Ivermectin paralyses and ultimately kills parasitic nematodes, arachnids and insects by a unique effect on the nervous systems of these parasites. At the therapeutic dosage, Ivermectin is well tolerated by livestock, since it does not readily penetrate the central nervous system. Ivermectin is structurally unrelated to any of the currently available anti-parasitics. Because of this and of its unique mode of action, which is not shared by any other antiparasitic agents, cross-resistance is unlikely.
