Product Overview
This formulation contains Ivermectin, a semi-synthetic macrocyclic lactone derived from Streptomyces avermitilis.
The “Paralyzing” Specialist:
- Mechanism: Ivermectin binds selectively and with high affinity to glutamate-gated chloride ion channels in invertebrate nerve and muscle cells. This binding increases the permeability of the cell membrane to chloride ions, leading to hyperpolarization, paralysis, and death of the parasite.
- Selectivity: It is safe for humans because mammals (humans) do not have glutamate-gated chloride channels, and Ivermectin does not readily cross the human blood-brain barrier.
- Microfilaricidal: It rapidly kills the immature larvae (microfilariae) of filarial worms, stopping the progression of diseases like River Blindness and Elephantiasis.
- Scabies Control: A single oral dose is highly effective for Crusted Scabies or community outbreaks where topical creams are impractical.

- Solubility Enhancement: Ivermectin is practically insoluble in water. We use solid dispersion technology during granulation to ensure the drug dissolves completely in the GI tract for maximum absorption.
- Assay Precision: Given the low dosage (mg), we use high-precision blending to ensure content uniformity in every tablet.

- Strongyloidiasis: Intestinal infection caused by Strongyloides stercoralis.
- Onchocerciasis: River Blindness caused by Onchocerca volvulus.
