What is this medicine?
IVERHEAL (IVERMECTIN 3 mg) is an antiparasitic medicine. It is used to treat infections caused by certain parasites such as intestinal strongyloidiasis and onchocerciasis (river blindness). It may also be used off-label to treat scabies, head lice, and certain other parasitic infections. Ivermectin works by paralyzing and killing the parasites.
