Vermact 12, containing ivermectin, is commonly prescribed to treat a range of parasitic infections, including roundworms, strongyloidiasis, scabies, and filariasis. The correct way to take Vermact depends on the type of infection, your age, body weight, and medical condition.

Typically, Vermact is taken orally as a single dose, with the dosage calculated based on body weight (usually 150–200 mcg per kg). It is best taken on an empty stomach with water, as food may affect absorption. For some infections, a second dose may be required after one or two weeks to fully clear parasites and prevent reinfection.

Always follow your doctor’s prescription carefully—self-medicating can lead to incorrect dosing or resistance. Avoid alcohol while taking Vermact, as it may increase side effects like dizziness or nausea. Children, pregnant women, and people with liver or neurological disorders should only use Vermact under strict medical supervision.

To maximize effectiveness, maintain good hygiene practices—wash hands, drink clean water, and keep surroundings sanitary to reduce reinfection risks. In most cases, Vermact provides noticeable relief within days, but completing the full prescribed course is essential to ensure parasites are completely eliminated.
