Ivermectin 6mg Tablet are primarily used to treat various parasitic infections in humans. These infections include intestinal strongyloidiasis, which is caused by the nematode Strongyloides stercoralis, and onchocerciasis, also known as river blindness, caused by the nematode Onchocerca volvulus. Ivermectin works by binding to invertebrate muscle and nerve cells, leading to paralysis and death of the parasites. It is also used off-label for other parasitic infections such as scabies and head lice. Recently, ivermectin has gained attention for its potential use in treating COVID-19, although its efficacy for this purpose remains under investigation and is not widely endorsed by health authorities. The medicine is generally well-tolerated, but its use should be guided by a healthcare professional to avoid adverse effects and ensure appropriate treatment.
