How should I use Ivermectin?

This medicine is for external use only. Do not take by mouth. Follow the directions on the package label. Apply only to the affected areas of your face. Use a pea-sized amount of cream for each area of your face (forehead, chin, nose, each cheek) that is affected. Spread the cream smoothly and evenly in a thin layer. Keep this medicine away from your eyes, mouth, nose or vaginal opening. Use your medicine at regular intervals. Do not use it more often than directed. Do not stop using except on the advice of your doctor or health care professional.

Talk to your pediatrician regarding the use of this medicine in children. Special care may be needed.

Overdosage: If you think you have taken too much of Ivermectin contact a poison control center or emergency room at once. NOTE: Ivermectin is only for you. Do not share Ivermectin with others.

What if I miss a dose?

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you can. If it is almost time for your next dose, take only that dose. Do not take double or extra doses.
