How It Works
Ivermectin targets parasites by binding to glutamate-gated chloride ion channels in their nerve and muscle cells. This increases chloride ion influx → causes paralysis and death of the parasite — eliminating the infection. Human nerve cells do not have the same channels, making the drug safe at proper doses.
