Ivermectin Cream 1% is a topical medication primarily used to treat the inflammatory lesions and pimples of rosacea in adults. By reducing inflammation and eliminating mites that may contribute to the condition, the cream helps improve skin appearance and reduces redness. Applied once daily to the affected areas, it's important to use under healthcare provider guidance for optimal results. Rosacea sufferers benefit from its targeted action, which is backed by prescription reliability.
Details and Features:
Active Ingredient: Ivermectin 1%

Packaging: Usually available in tubes
Indicated Use: Treatment of inflammatory papules and pustules of rosacea
Application: Typically applied once daily to the affected areas

Mechanism of Action:
Ivermectin in topical form targets the Demodex mites, which may contribute to the inflammatory component of rosacea. The medication binds with high affinity to certain ion channels involved in the nerve and muscle function of parasites, which can lead to paralysis and death of these mites. This decreases inflammation and the number of lesions in patients with rosacea.
