INTRODUCTION
Ivermectin Pour-On (ivermectin topical solution) delivers internal and
external parasite control in one
convenient low-volume application. Ivermectin Pour-On (ivermectin
topical solution) contains
ivermectin, a unique chemical entity.
MODE OF ACTION
Ivermectin is a member of the macrocylic lactone class of endectocides
which have a unique mode of
action. Compounds of the class bind selectively and with high affinity
to glutamate-gated chloride ion
channels which occur in invertebrate nerve and muscle cells.
This leads to an increase in the permeability of the cell membrane to
chloride ions with
hyperpolarization of the nerve or muscle cell, resulting in paralysis
and death of the parasite.
Compounds of this class may also interact with other ligand -gated
chloride channels, such as those
gated by the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA).
The margin of safety for compounds of this class is attributable to
the fact that mammals do not have
glutamate-gated chloride channels, the macrocylic lactones have a low
affinity for other mammalian
ligand-gated chloride channels and they do not readily cross the
blood-brain barrier.
INDICATIONS
Ivermectin Pour-On (ivermectin topical solution) applied at the
recommended dose level of 500 mcg/kg
is indicated for the effective control of these parasites.
