What is Ivermectin?
Ivermectin is one of the world's leading anti-parasitic drugs on the market. Originally developed as a veterinary drug, it has also been proven to help with human parasites as well. It is actually a combination of two compounds derived from the same compound, avermectin, originally developed from a strain of bacterium. The bacterium strains were fermented, and shown in testing to cause damage to parasites in small rodents.

Ivermectin kills parasites by stopping muscle function (paralysis) and damaging the nerves.
There are many different brands of Ivermectin, including Zimecterin®, Ivomec®, Heartgard®, Iverheart Plus®, and Stomectrol®.
