Iversun 12 mg Tablet

Iversun 12 mg Tablet is an antiparasitic medicine that contains 12 mg of ivermectin in each tablet. It belongs to the anthelmintic, or anti-worm, class and is used to treat certain parasitic infections caused by worms and other susceptible parasites, depending on a doctor’s diagnosis. Iversun 12 mg Tablet is taken by mouth and is prescribed when the higher tablet strength is appropriate for the patient’s body weight and condition.

How it works: Ivermectin works by interfering with the nerve and muscle function of susceptible parasites, which helps stop them from surviving in the body. Because Iversun 12 mg Tablet is swallowed as a tablet, the medicine is absorbed through the digestive tract and then acts systemically against the parasite.

Iversun 12 mg Tablet is the higher-strength option compared with Iversun 6 mg Tablet, so it may be chosen when a doctor wants fewer tablets per dose or a larger ivermectin amount in one tablet. This 12 mg strength is not automatically a starting dose for everyone; it is selected based on the infection being treated, the patient’s weight, and the prescriber’s plan.

• Treatment of certain worm infections
• Treatment of parasite infestations diagnosed by a doctor
• Anthelmintic therapy for susceptible parasites
• Sometimes used for other parasitic conditions when prescribed off-label

• Swallow Iversun 12 mg Tablet whole with a full glass of water unless your doctor tells you otherwise.
• Take it exactly on the day and at the time prescribed; some infections use a single dose, while others may need repeat dosing.
• Take it on an empty stomach or with food only if your prescriber or the product directions say to do so.
• Do not crush or chew the tablet unless your pharmacist or doctor specifically instructs you.
• If you vomit soon after taking the tablet, contact your doctor for advice before taking another dose.
• Use the exact number of 12 mg tablets prescribed; do not adjust the dose on your own.

Each Iversun 12 mg Tablet provides 12 mg of ivermectin, which is a higher tablet strength than the 6 mg version. The number of tablets, how often you take them, and whether a repeat dose is needed depend on the infection, your weight, and your doctor’s instructions; some regimens are one-time doses while others are repeated at specific intervals. Do not take more than prescribed, and there is no fixed maximum daily dose for every use because the prescriber determines the correct regimen for this strength.

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

Common side effects of Ivermectin may include:

• Dizziness
• Nausea
• Diarrhea
• Stomach pain
• Headache
• Itching or rash
• Fatigue

• This 12 mg tablet is a higher strength, so dosing mistakes can happen more easily if you do not follow the prescription exactly.
• Tell your doctor if you have liver problems, because ivermectin may need extra caution in people with liver disease.
• Use caution if you are pregnant or breastfeeding; your prescriber should decide whether this medicine is appropriate.
• Avoid alcohol if it worsens dizziness, drowsiness, or stomach upset while you are taking the tablet.
• Be careful driving or using machinery if you feel dizzy, sleepy, or unsteady after the dose.
• Tell your doctor about any history of neurologic conditions, as severe side effects can be more likely in susceptible patients.
• Seek medical guidance before taking it if you have a very weak immune system or a heavy parasitic infection, since monitoring may be needed.

• Warfarin and other blood thinners
• Other medicines that can cause drowsiness or dizziness
• Drugs that affect liver enzymes, especially strong CYP3A4 inhibitors or inducers
• Other antiparasitic medicines unless your doctor specifically prescribes them together
