Iversun 12 (Ivermectin) Tablet

Iversun 12 (Ivermectin) Tablet: Overview

Iversun 12 contains ivermectin, an antiparasitic medicine supplied as an oral tablet. It is used to treat certain worm and other parasitic infections when prescribed by a qualified healthcare professional.

The product is available in packs of 30, 60, 100, 200, or 300 tablets. The appropriate pack should be selected according to the treatment plan provided by your healthcare professional.

Uses of Iversun 12 (Ivermectin) Tablet

• Used to treat certain intestinal worm infections, including strongyloidiasis.
• Used for some infections caused by parasitic worms, such as onchocerciasis, when clinically appropriate.
• May be prescribed for certain other parasitic conditions, including scabies, depending on the diagnosis and medical assessment.
• Helps eliminate susceptible parasites and reduce the symptoms associated with the infection.

How Iversun 12 (Ivermectin) Tablet Works

Ivermectin works by attaching to specific channels in the nerve and muscle cells of susceptible parasites. This increases the movement of chloride ions into those cells, causing paralysis and eventual death of the parasite.

The medicine targets parasites rather than treating every cause of itching, rash, or digestive symptoms. The correct diagnosis is therefore important, and follow-up testing or treatment may be needed for some infections.

How to Take Iversun 12 (Ivermectin) Tablet

Take Iversun 12 exactly as directed by your healthcare professional. The amount and timing depend on the type of infection, body weight, medical history, and response to treatment. Swallow the tablet with water and do not change the prescribed amount without medical guidance.

Tell your healthcare professional about other medicines, supplements, allergies, pregnancy, breastfeeding, liver problems, or any history of neurologic illness before starting treatment. If you miss a dose, ask a healthcare professional what to do rather than taking extra tablets.

Possible Side Effects

• Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or stomach discomfort.
• Dizziness, weakness, sleepiness, or headache.
• Skin rash, itching, or swelling.
• Temporary fever or muscle and joint discomfort.
• In some parasitic infections, symptoms may briefly worsen as parasites die.

Seek prompt medical attention for severe dizziness, confusion, breathing difficulty, facial swelling, a widespread blistering rash, or other serious or rapidly worsening symptoms.

Precautions & Warnings

• Use only for the infection diagnosed or suspected by a healthcare professional.
• Do not share this medicine with another person, even if their symptoms appear similar.
• Use caution if you have liver disease or are taking medicines that may affect the nervous system.
• Discuss pregnancy or breastfeeding with a healthcare professional before use.
• Children or people with a low body weight require specific professional assessment before treatment.
• Get medical advice if symptoms persist, return, or worsen after treatment.
