Samskara, Ivermectin is also called Stromectol. I found that out when I was doing my research on Lice. It is an anti parastic agent. It is a dewormer for animalsl(Heart Guard). (There was a post earlier I think by one of the Debs but I could not find it again) I don't think it is approved for humans but some Doctors perscribe it for scabies if the cremes and others do not work. There are side effects and Drs. are leery because of some deaths but can't prove it was definitely the drug.

I think someone on this site has used it and it worked for them. Someone else said their Dr. prescibed it. I am requesting it but my dr. will only give me the smallest dose for I am already on Bactrin (anti parastic) which is also used to treat lice and scabies.

My thoughts are if your immune system is way off kilter as mine was, the meds may not work as well to kill them off, only slow them down or kill the weak ones but the strong ones still survive. My first derm perscribed doxycycline (she figured I had scabies) and it might have worked if my immune system was in better shape. She made the mistake of not running a blood test to find that I was REALLY LOW on the basic stuff, like C,D and B.

Since I have been taking the extra C,D and B I find the stuff coming out in my stool are A LOT SMALLER but I am still finding eggs so I know the lice are still there.

I've heard that some Drs. are recommending a switching of 2 different meds (one wonders if they are not building up resistance to a drug if you use it all the time) Ivermectin or stromectol is what I'm requesting from my Dr. but will not start on the stromectol until another week so that I have corrected some of my vitamin deficiency. I am still taking the bactrin though.

You should make sure you are NOT ALLERGIC to any drugs. Keep in mind though because of our difference in body make up, what works for one person may not necessarily work for another. Add the possibility of built up resistance and it makes it all so experating. Good luck, Linda
