Pregnancy Category

Name : C

Description

Animal reproduction studies have shown an adverse effect on the fetus and there are no adequate and well-controlled studies in humans, but potential benefits may warrant use of the drug in pregnant women despite potential risks

Mode of Action

Ivermectin selectively binds and with high affinity to glutamate-gated chloride ion channels, which occur in invertebrate nerve and muscle cells leading to an increase in the permeability of cell membranes to chloride ions with hyperpolarization of the nerve or muscle cell and, ultimately, death of the parasite.

Interaction

Bioavailability may be increased by alcohol, levamisole.

Pregnancy Category Note

Pregnancy category: C Pregnancy There are no studies in pregnant women; epidemiologic studies during pregnancy are insufficient to inform a drug-associated risk of adverse developmental outcomes, because either the timing of administration during gestation was not accurately ascertained or the administration occurred only during the second trimester; however, systemic exposure from topical use of ivermectin is much lower than that from oral use In animal reproduction studies, ivermectin induced adverse developmental outcomes when orally administered to pregnant mice, rats and rabbits during the period of organogenesis only at or near doses that were maternally toxic to the pregnant females Lactation There is information available on the presence of ivermectin in human milk in 4 lactating women after a single 150 mcg/kg oral dose of ivermectin; however, there is insufficient information from this study to determine effects of ivermectin on breastfed infant or on milk production Topical ivermectin systemic exposure is much lower than that for oral ivermectin; furthermore, amount of ivermectin present in human milk after topical application to lactating women has not been studied The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother?s clinical need for therapy and any potential adverse effects on breastfed infant or from underlying maternal condition Lactation: Enters breast milk (AAP Committee states compatible with nursing)
