Ivermectin is an antiparasitic macrocyclic lactone used to target nematode and ectoparasite infections.

- Strongyloidiasis: eradicates intestinal larvae, interrupting the life cycle and preventing chronic infection. - Onchocerciasis: kills microfilariae in the skin and eyes, reducing disease manifestations. - Scabies: eliminates the Sarcoptes scabiei mite, relieving itching and skin lesions. - Lymphatic filariasis: reduces microfilarial load, aiding in disease control and transmission interruption.

Ivermectin is generally well tolerated, but adverse reactions can occur.

Common Side Effects: - Dizziness: transient feeling of light‑headedness. - Nausea: mild to moderate upset stomach. - Diarrhea: loose stools, usually self‑limiting. - Headache: mild to moderate intensity. - Pruritus: itching without rash. - Mild skin rash: localized erythema.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Severe skin reactions (e.g., Stevens‑Johnson syndrome): requires immediate medical attention. - Hepatotoxicity: elevated liver enzymes or jaundice. - Neurologic toxicity (e.g., seizures, ataxia): may occur with high plasma levels. - Hypotension: sudden drop in blood pressure. - Anaphylaxis: acute allergic response. - Visual disturbances: blurred vision or ocular pain.

Before prescribing Ivermectin Substipharm, clinicians should consider several safety factors.

- Pregnancy: safety not established; use only if potential benefits outweigh risks. - Breastfeeding: unknown excretion in milk; evaluate risk versus benefit. - Hepatic impairment: dose adjustment may be required; monitor liver function. - Renal impairment: use with caution in severe renal disease. - Concomitant neurotoxic drugs: avoid or monitor for additive neurotoxicity. - Store at ambient temperature below 25°C: keep in the original pack, protect from moisture.

Ivermectin may interact with other medicines, influencing its efficacy or safety.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole, itraconazole): may increase ivermectin plasma concentrations. - Co‑administration with other neurotoxic agents (e.g., albendazole, levamisole): heightened risk of neurologic adverse events. - Warfarin: potential enhancement of anticoagulant effect, increasing bleeding risk.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Mild CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., rifampicin, carbamazepine): may reduce ivermectin exposure and efficacy. - P‑gp substrates (e.g., digoxin): possible alteration of drug levels. - Anticholinergic agents: may increase risk of constipation.
