Ivermectin 24 mg tablets are widely used to treat parasitic infections such as intestinal strongyloidiasis, onchocerciasis (river blindness), and scabies. It works by paralyzing and killing parasites, thereby stopping the infection. The typical adult dosage depends on body weight and condition, usually administered as a single oral dose on an empty stomach with water. Repeat doses may be required for severe cases. While generally safe, common side effects include dizziness, nausea, and mild skin rash. Serious reactions are rare but should be reported immediately. Ivermectin should be used under medical supervision, especially in people with liver disease or neurological disorders. Avoid alcohol and consult a doctor before use if pregnant or breastfeeding. Always follow the prescribed dosage for best results.
