Is Ivermectin 12 Mg Safe for Pinworm Treatment?

[richardsreese]

Yes, 12 mg Ivermectin  is okay for treating pinworms, but not generally the first option. Other medications such as mebendazole or albendazole are generally prescribed first since they're more readily used and directly aimed at pinworms. However, Ivermectin has been proven to treat parasitic infections like pinworms effectively, particularly for hard-to-treat or recurrent ones. It kills the worms by paralyzing them, and then the body ejects them. Although generally safe when used as directed, it is wise to heed your doctor's advice and dosage. Never self-medicate, and always consult a medical professional before initiating any antiparasitic regimen.
