Covermect 12 mg Tablet contains Ivermectin 12 mg (as Ivermectin) tablet. Prescription required.

Treatment of parasitic infections such as intestinal strongyloidiasis and onchocerciasis; also used for scabies and pediculosis (lice) as prescribed.

Ivermectin is an antiparasitic that binds to glutamate-gated chloride channels in parasites, increasing chloride influx and causing paralysis and death of the parasite. It has minimal effect on humans at recommended doses due to limited penetration into the CNS.
