How Ivermectin Works
Ivermectin works by targeting the parasite’s nervous system.
Step-by-Step Mechanism:
1. Binds to Parasite Nerve Cells
Ivermectin attaches to specific channels in parasite nerve and muscle cells.
2. Causes Paralysis
This disrupts nerve signals, leading to paralysis of the parasite.
3. Leads to Parasite Death
Paralysed parasites cannot survive and are eliminated by the body.
4. Clears Infestation
This results in effective treatment of scabies and parasitic infections.
