Tell your doctor if you are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed.

Ivermectin has been detected in human breast milk. Because of the possibility for adverse reactions in nursing infants from ivermectin, a choice should be made whether to stop nursing or to stop use of this medication. The importance of the drug to the mother should be considered.

Vetrimec Usage

Oral:

  • Ivermectin comes as a tablet to take by mouth. It is usually taken as a single dose on an empty stomach with water. If you are taking ivermectin to treat onchocerciasis, additional doses 3, 6, or 12 months later may be necessary to control your infection. Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Take ivermectin exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of it or take it more often than prescribed by your doctor.
  • If you are taking ivermectin to treat strongyloidiasis, you will need to have a stool exam at least three times during the first 3 months after your treatment to see if your infection has cleared. If your infection has not cleared, your doctor will probably prescribe additional doses of ivermectin.
  • Ivermectin tablets are usually taken as a single dose. Tell your doctor if you do not take your medication.

Topical:

  • Use ivermection lotion exactly as prescribed. Your healthcare provider will prescribe the treatment that is right for you. Do not change your treatment unless you talk to your healthcare provider.
  • Use ivermection lotion when your hair is dry.
  • It is important to use enough ivermection lotion to completely coat all of your hair and scalp. Leave lotion on your hair and scalp for a full 10 minutes.
  • You need to completely cover all the scalp and hair with lotion.
  • Children will need an adult to apply ivermection lotion for them.
  • Do not swallow ivermection lotion. If swallowed, call your healthcare provider or go to the nearest emergency room right away.
  • Do not get ivermection lotion into your eyes. If ivermection lotion gets in your eye, gently flush with water.
  • Wash your hands after applying ivermection lotion.

When you complete your dose of ivermection lotion, do not use ivermection lotion again without talking to your healthcare provider first.

Before you use ivermection lotion, ask your healthcare provider or pharmacist if you have questions about the right way to use ivermection lotion.

  • Your hair and scalp must be dry before applying ivermection lotion.
  • Use the top of cap to break the tamper seal on the tube.
  • Apply ivermection lotion directly to dry hair and scalp.
  • Completely cover your scalp and hair closest to the scalp first, and then apply outwards towards the ends of your hair.
  • Rub ivermection lotion throughout hair.
  • It is important to completely cover your entire head so that all lice and eggs are exposed to the lotion. Be sure that each hair is coated from the scalp to the tip.
  • Use up to 1 entire tube (4 oz) to completely cover hair and scalp.
  • Allow ivermection lotion to stay on your hair and scalp for 10 minutes after it has been applied. Use a timer or clock. Start timing after you have completely covered your hair and scalp with ivermection lotion.
  • After 10 minutes, completely rinse ivermection lotion from your hair and scalp using only water.
  • You or anyone who helps you apply ivermection lotion should wash their hands after application.
  • Do not use ivermection lotion again without talking to your healthcare provider first.

To help prevent the spread of lice from one person to another, here are some steps you can take:

  • Avoid direct head-to-head contact with anyone known to have live, crawling lice.
  • Do not share combs, brushes, hats, scarves, bandannas, ribbons, barrettes, hair bands, towels, helmets, or other hair-related personal items with anyone else, whether they have lice or not.
  • Avoid sleepovers and slumber parties during lice outbreaks. Lice can live in bedding, pillows, and carpets that have recently been used by someone with lice.
  • After finishing treatment with lice medicine, check everyone in your family for lice after one week. Be sure to talk to your healthcare provider about treatments for those who have lice.
  • Machine wash any bedding and clothing used by anyone having lice. Machine wash at high temperatures (150°F) and tumble in a hot dryer for 20 minutes.
