DESCRIPTION
Oily liquid, colorless or yellowishcolor.
COMPOSITION
Each 1 ml contains active ingredient:
- Ivermectin – 10.0 mg
PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
ATC vet QP54AA, avermectins(QP54AA01, Ivermectin).
The active ingredient is Ivermectin, which relates to compounds, produced bymicroorganisms of Streptomices avermitis. The mechanism of action of thepreparation on the parasite is that Ivermectin stimulates excretion ofgamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), which binds to specific receptors on nerveendings, increasing membrane permeability to chloride ions and blocking thetransmission of nerve – muscle impulses, causing the paralysis and death of theparasite.
The preparation “Ivermecvet 1%” has a high efficiency and a wide spectrum ofaction (insecticidal, acaricidal and nematodal activity), and relatively lowtoxicity to warm-blooded animals.
