Ivecop 3 mg Tablet

Ivecop 3 mg Tablet is an oral antiparasitic medicine that contains 3 mg of ivermectin in each tablet. It belongs to the anthelmintic, or anti-worm, class and is used to treat certain parasitic infections when prescribed by a clinician. This strength is part of the Ivecop tablet range and is taken by mouth to help clear susceptible worms and other parasites from the body.

How it works: Ivermectin works by interfering with nerve and muscle function in susceptible parasites, which helps paralyze and eliminate them. In tablet form, Ivecop 3 mg Tablet delivers the medicine systemically after swallowing so it can act on the infection under medical supervision.

Ivecop 3 mg Tablet is the lower-strength tablet in the Ivecop line, alongside Ivecop 6 mg Tablet and Ivecop 12 mg Tablet. Because each tablet contains only 3 mg of ivermectin, it can be useful when a doctor wants to build a precise total dose using multiple tablets or when a smaller tablet strength is preferred for a specific patient and diagnosis.

• Strongyloidiasis
• Onchocerciasis (river blindness)
• Scabies, when prescribed
• Other parasite infections as directed by a doctor

• Swallow the Ivecop 3 mg Tablet with a glass of water unless your prescriber gives different instructions.
• Take it exactly on the day and at the time your doctor tells you; many prescriptions are a one-time dose or short course, depending on the infection.
• Do not crush or chew the tablet unless your pharmacist specifically tells you it is appropriate.
• Taking it on an empty stomach may increase absorption, but follow your prescriber’s directions because some conditions are dosed differently.
• Use the exact number of Ivecop 3 mg tablets prescribed to reach the correct total dose; do not guess or split dosing on your own.

Each Ivecop 3 mg Tablet provides 3 mg of ivermectin, so the number of tablets needed depends on the prescribed total dose. Some infections are treated with a single dose, while others may require repeat dosing at set intervals; the maximum number of tablets per day is not the same for every patient and should be determined by the prescriber based on weight, infection, and response.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.
