Mectizan, containing the active ingredient ivermectin, is an anti-parasitic medication used to treat several neglected tropical diseases. It is a semisynthetic derivative of a family of compounds produced by the soil bacterium Streptomyces avermitilis.

Uses

The main uses of Mectizan include:

  • Treatment of onchocerciasis (river blindness)
  • Treatment of strongyloidiasis
  • Treatment of scabies
  • Control programs to eliminate lymphatic filariasis
  • Potential role in treating other parasitic worm infections

Benefits

Key benefits of taking Mectizan include:

  • Effectively treats and prevents onchocerciasis, a leading cause of preventable blindness
  • Rapidly eliminates scabies infestation
  • Broad-spectrum anti-parasitic activity against several worm infections
  • Well-tolerated with minimal adverse effects when used properly

Mechanism of Action

Ivermectin binds to and activates chloride channels in nerve and muscle cells of parasites, causing paralysis and death of the organism. It appears to have a higher affinity for invertebrate rather than vertebrate receptor channels.

Dosage

For onchocerciasis: 150-200 mcg/kg as a single oral dose, repeated annually

For strongyloidiasis: 200 mcg/kg once, repeated in 2 weeks

For scabies: 200 mcg/kg as a single oral dose Dosing may vary based on weight, severity, and physician guidance.

Side Effects

Most people tolerate ivermectin well. Potential side effects include headache, dizziness, muscle aches, nausea, and diarrhea. Rare serious reactions like neurological effects may occur in some with high parasite burden.

Warnings

Use with caution in those with liver disease or weighing less than 15kg. Avoid use in children under 5, or pregnant/breastfeeding women unless the benefits outweigh risks.

Important Information

Take Mectizan on an empty stomach with water for optimal absorption. Complete any prescribed re-treatment regimen. Do not share or save leftover medication. Immediately report any potential side effects to your doctor.

 

It is worth noting that there has been some controversy around the use of Mectizan for COVID-19 treatment, as some people have claimed that it can be effective in treating the disease.

The dosage of Mectizan (ivermectin) will depend on the specific condition being treated. The medication is usually taken as a tablet and the dosage and duration of treatment will be determined by a healthcare provider. For the treatment of onchocerciasis (river blindness), the typical dose is a single oral dose of 150 mcg/kg of body weight, repeated every 6 to 12 months. For the treatment of strongyloidiasis, the usual dose is a single oral dose of 200 mcg/kg of body weight, given for 1 to 2 days. For the treatment of lymphatic filariasis, the recommended dose is a single oral dose of 150 mcg/kg of body weight, given once a year. It's important to follow the instructions of a healthcare provider when taking Mectizan and to take the medication for the full course of treatment. Additionally, it's important to let your healthcare provider know if you are taking any other medications, as Mectizan can interact with certain drugs.
