Generic Name: Ivermectin

Common Uses: Iverheal is used to treat a wide range of parasitic infections in animals. These include heartworm disease, roundworms, hookworms, lice, ear mites, ticks, and other external parasites. Ivermectin works by disrupting the parasite's nervous system, leading to its death and eliminating the infection in the animal.

How to Take: Iverheal dosage varies based on the animal’s weight and the type of parasitic infection being treated. The medication is typically given as an oral tablet, injectable solution, or topical application. The veterinarian will provide specific instructions for use, and it is important to follow the prescribed dosage carefully. For heartworm prevention, Iverheal is typically administered monthly, while treatments for other infections may vary in frequency.

Warning and Precautions: Iverheal should not be used in certain animals, including those with a known allergy to Ivermectin or other ingredients in the medication. It should also be avoided in animals with a weakened immune system, as they may be more susceptible to side effects. Pregnant or lactating animals should only receive Iverheal under veterinary guidance. Overdose may lead to serious side effects, including neurological damage, so it is crucial to follow dosing instructions carefully.

Missed Dose/Overdose: If a dose is missed, administer it as soon as possible unless it is close to the time for the next dose. In this case, skip the missed dose and continue with the regular dosing schedule. Never give two doses at the same time to make up for a missed dose. In case of overdose, seek immediate veterinary attention. Symptoms of overdose include tremors, seizures, drooling, and in severe cases, coma or death.

Storage: Store Iverheal in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the medication in its original packaging and out of reach of children and pets. The medication should not be used after its expiration date. If the medication is in liquid form, avoid freezing it.

Possible Side Effects: Some animals may experience mild side effects such as vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, or loss of appetite after taking Iverheal. Rarely, more severe reactions such as tremors, drooling, or loss of coordination may occur. If any of these side effects are noticed, or if your pet appears unwell after taking the medication, contact your veterinarian immediately. An allergic reaction to Iverheal is also possible, and symptoms may include swelling, hives, or difficulty breathing.

More Information: Iverheal is an effective solution for parasite control, but it should be used under the supervision of a veterinarian. It is important to perform regular veterinary checkups to ensure the health of your pet or livestock while using this medication. Your vet will also monitor for any side effects or complications during treatment.
