Description: Ivermectin (formerly known as MK-933) is an effective and widely used antiparasitic medication in human and veterinary medicine against many types of parasites. It acts as a positive allosteric effector of P2X4 and the alpha7 neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChRs). Ivermectin is used to treat head lice, scabies, river blindness, strongyloidiasis, and lymphatic filariasis, among others. Ivermectin and other avermectins (insecticides most frequently used in home-use ant baits) are macrocyclic lactones derived from the bacterium Streptomyces avermitilis. Ivermectin kills by interfering with nervous system and muscle function, in particular by enhancing inhibitory neurotransmission. Ivermectin is a mixture of mostly avermectin H2B1a (CAS# 71827-03-7) with some avermectin H2B1b (CAS# 70209-81-3), which are macrolides from STREPTOMYCES avermitilis.
