Manufactured by Menarini, Ivecop is commonly prescribed for treating parasitic infections like intestinal strongyloidiasis and onchocerciasis.

What are the Benefits of Ivecop Tablet?

Ivecop is highly effective in treating parasitic infections by targeting and eliminating the parasites from the body. Ivermectin works by paralyzing and eradicating parasitic worms and other infections within the body.

By eliminating the parasites, it helps prevent further health complications, including malnutrition and organ damage from long-term infections.
