DESCRIPTION

PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
Ivermek-gel has a pronounced acaricidal effect on larvae and sexually mature individuals of sarcoptoid and demodectic mites. Ivermectin, which is part of the drug, enhances the production of an inhibitory neurotransmitter - gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), which leads to impaired transmission of impulses from nerve cells to muscle cells, paralysis and death of the parasite.
Panthenol has a wound healing effect, and lidocaine has a local anesthetic effect with a pronounced antipruritic effect. Ivermectin is practically not absorbed through the skin and has an acaricidal effect on its surface, including in the hair follicles and sebaceous glands for 5-7 days.
According to the degree of impact on the body, Ivermek-gel belongs to low-hazard substances (hazard class 4 according to GOST 12.1.007-76); in recommended doses does not have a local irritant, resorptive-toxic, embryotoxic, teratogenic and mutagenic effect. Causes minor irritation in eye contact.
The drug is toxic to fish and bees.
DOSAGE AND APPLICATION
When dogs and cats are affected by demodicosis, dogs - sarcoptic mange, cats - notoedrosis, the drug is applied in a thin layer to the affected areas previously cleaned of scabs and crusts at the rate of 0.2-0.3 ml per 1 kg of animal weight, rubbing slightly from the periphery to the center with the capture of 1-2 cm of borderline healthy skin. To prevent the drug from licking off, the animals are put on a muzzle (or the jaws are closed with a loop of braid), which is removed 15-20 minutes after applying the drug.
The treatment is carried out 2-4 times with an interval of 5-7 days until the animal's clinical recovery, which is confirmed by two negative results of acarological studies, but no more than 6 times. Animals with extensive lesions are treated in two doses with an interval of one day, applying the drug to the affected areas first of one and then the other half of the body. For acarosis complicated by bacterial infection, it is recommended to use immunomodulating and antibacterial drugs.
In case of otodectosis (ear scabies) of carnivores, the external auditory canal is cleaned with a swab with a preparation from scabs and crusts and then 0.5-2.0 ml of Ivermek gel is injected into each ear (depending on the weight of the animal). For the purpose of a more complete treatment of the entire surface of the ear and the auditory canal, the auricle is folded in half lengthwise and its base is lightly massaged. Processing is carried out 1-2 times with an interval of 5-7 days. If necessary, repeat the course of treatment. The drug must be injected into both ears, even if only one ear is affected by otodectosis. In advanced cases of the disease complicated by otitis media, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drugs are prescribed.
