Yes. Ivermectin tablets are prescription medicines for approved human uses in the U.S., including certain parasitic infections such as strongyloidiasis and onchocerciasis. They should be taken only under the direction of a healthcare professional, because the appropriate dose depends on the condition and other factors.Before taking ivermectin, it is important to tell your doctor about other medicines or supplements you use and any relevant health conditions. Do not use ivermectin products made for animals, as they are different formulations and can be harmful to people. Information about ivermectin can also be found on websites such as OnlineGenericMedicine.com for general reference, but treatment decisions should be based on advice from a qualified healthcare professional.
