Ivermectol 3 mg Tablet

Ivermectol 3 mg Tablet is an antiparasitic medicine containing ivermectin 3 mg in each tablet. It belongs to the anthelmintic (anti-worm) class and is used to treat certain parasitic infections caused by worms and other susceptible parasites. This Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. product is taken by mouth as a tablet, and the exact dose depends on the infection and body weight. It is not a general deworming medicine for every type of parasite, so it should be used only when prescribed.

How it works: Ivermectin in Ivermectol 3 mg Tablet works by interfering with nerve and muscle function in susceptible parasites, which helps stop them from surviving in the body. Because it is a swallowed tablet, the medicine is absorbed after you take it by mouth and then reaches the parasites through the bloodstream.

Ivermectol 3 mg Tablet is the lower-strength tablet in this brand range, alongside Ivermectol 6 mg Tablet and Ivermectol 12 mg Tablet. Doctors may choose the 3 mg strength when a smaller, more precise total dose is needed, especially for weight-based dosing or when they want to build the required dose using multiple tablets. Compared with higher strengths, the 3 mg tablet can make dose adjustment easier and may be more suitable for people who do not need a large single-tablet dose.

Each Ivermectol 3 mg Tablet provides 3 mg of ivermectin. The dose is usually not fixed for everyone; your doctor may prescribe one tablet or several tablets at one time, and the schedule may be a single dose, repeated dose, or another regimen depending on the infection.
