PHARMACEUTICAL PROPERTIES
Ivermectin, an antiparasitic of the family of avermectins endowed with a great activity as well on the internal parasites as external of the domestic animals. Ivermectin acts on nematodes and arthropods via gamma amino-butyric acid (GABA). It causes its release from the presynaptic membrane and potentiates its binding to receptors located on the postsynaptic membrane. At the recommended doses, ivermectin is very well tolerated in both adults and young people and can be used at all stages of gestation. However, ivermectin is devoid of cestocidal activity. This often forces it to be combined with anthelmintics with tenicidal activity.
Praziquantel is an anthelmintic from the pyrazino-isoquinoline family which is very active on tapeworms. Its action is exerted on both adult and immature forms. On the pharmacological level, praziquantel exerts its action in various ways including in particular the induction of a paralyzing muscular contraction and the destruction of the integument of the cestode. It is rapidly absorbed from the digestive tract in all species. His metabolism is complete and rapid. The two products, ivermectin and praziquantel, then present a perfect complementarity of their action spectra.
