Ivercor 12 mg tablets contain a higher dose of ivermectin, a macrocyclic lactone antiparasitic medicine used to treat a wide range of parasitic infections. Ivermectin works by binding to glutamate-gated chloride channels in nerve and muscle cells of parasites, causing paralysis and death. The 12 mg dose is often prescribed for heavier adults or cases of more severe infections where a single 3 mg or 6 mg tablet may be insufficient. Doctors may prescribe Ivercor 12 mg for strongyloidiasis, onchocerciasis (river blindness), scabies, lice infestations and other helminthic diseases. This medication should be taken orally on an empty stomach with a full glass of water. Dosing is usually weight-based, and a single dose may be repeated after a certain period if needed, depending on the parasite. Taking more than the recommended dose does not improve efficacy and can increase the risk of adverse effects.

Mild side effects may include nausea, diarrhea, dizziness, drowsiness or itching as the parasites are killed. These usually resolve within a few days. Serious side effects are rare but can include swelling of the face or limbs, chest pain, seizures, confusion or severe skin rash. Seek medical help immediately if these occur. People with liver impairment should use caution as ivermectin is metabolized in the liver. Ivercor 12 mg may interact with other medicines, particularly other antiparasitics, blood thinners, and medications that depress the nervous system, so inform your healthcare provider of all medications you take. Avoid alcohol when taking ivermectin. Not recommended for children under 15 kg or for pregnant or breastfeeding women without doctor supervision. Always use Ivercor 12 mg under medical guidance and follow weight-based dosing for safe and effective treatment of parasitic infections. Ivercor 12mg
