Veterinary Injection

Product Details:

 

Ivermectin injection is a broad-spectrum antiparasitic drug used in veterinary and, in select cases, human medicine. It is administered via subcutaneous (SC) or intramuscular (IM) injection and is designed to treat or prevent parasitic infections caused by a variety of internal and external parasites.

In humans, injectable ivermectin is not widely used and is typically reserved for off-label or emergency use under strict medical supervision. It is more commonly used in animals (e.g., cattle, sheep, dogs).

✅ Uses in Humans

Though oral ivermectin is more common, injectable ivermectin may be used in specific cases such as:

• Strongyloidiasis (threadworm infection)

• Scabies (particularly in crusted or resistant forms)

• Onchocerciasis (river blindness)

• Lice infestations

• Filarial infections (e.g., lymphatic filariasis)

Use in humans is typically off-label and under hospital supervision when oral therapy is not suitable or effective.

✅ Uses in Animals

Veterinary ivermectin injection is widely used to treat:

• Roundworms (gastrointestinal and lung worms)

• Mange mites (e.g., sarcoptic mange)

• Lice

• Ticks

• Heartworm prevention in dogs

Species include cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, and dogs.

⚙️ How It Works

Ivermectin works by binding to glutamate-gated chloride channels in the nervous system of parasites. This causes:

• Increased permeability to chloride ions

• Paralysis of the parasite’s muscles

• Death of the parasite

It does not affect humans or animals significantly because our nervous systems lack these specific channels.

💉 Dosage & Administration

• Route: Subcutaneous (SC) or Intramuscular (IM)

• Human dosage: Not standardized for injection; varies based on indication and medical judgment

• Animal dosage: Typically based on weight (e.g., 200 mcg/kg SC)

In humans, it's rarely used as injection unless oral route is not feasible.

⚠️ Precautions & Warnings

• Not FDA-approved for injectable use in humans in many countries

• Use under hospital or clinical supervision only

• Avoid in people with meningitis, HIV with high parasite loads, or liver dysfunction

• Extreme caution in children under 15 kg and pregnant women

• Drug may cause neurotoxicity in overdose or in compromised blood-brain barrier
