Scabies

Riovera tablet is indicated for the treatment of Strongyloidiasis, Onchocerciasis, Filariasis, and Scabies & Head lice. Strongyloidiasis of the intestinal tract: Riovera is indicated for the treatment of intestinal (i.e., nondisseminated) strongyloidiasis due to the nematode parasite Strongyloides stercoralis. This indication is based on clinical studies of both comparative and open-label designs, in which 64-100% of infected patients were cured following a single 200-mcg/kg dose of Riovera. Onchocerciasis: Riovera is indicated for the treatment of onchocerciasis due to the nematode parasite Onchocerca volvulus. This indication is based on randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled and comparative studies conducted in 1427 patients in onchocerciasis-endemic areas of West Africa. The comparative studies used diethylcarbamazine citrate (DEC-C).

ফার্মাকোলজি

Ivermectin selectively binds and with high affinity to glutamate-gated chloride ion channels, which occur in invertebrate nerve and muscle cells leading to an increase in the permeability of cell membranes to chloride ions with hyperpolarization of the nerve or muscle cell and, ultimately, death of the parasite.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Pregnancy Category C. Ivermectin does not appear to be selectively toxic to the developing fetus, but there are no adequate, well-controlled studies in pregnant women. For this reason, it should not be used during pregnancy, as safety in pregnancy has not been established.

Nursing mothers: Ivermectin passes into breast milk in low concentrations. Treatment of nursing mothers should be considered only when the risk to the mother of delaying treatment outweighs the possible risk to the newborn.

⚠️ Talk to your doctor before taking any medicine during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
