Topical cream: Not for oral, ophthalmic, or vaginal use; avoid contact with eyes and lips. Wash hands after application.

Administration: Adult

Topical lotion: For external use only. Apply to dry scalp and hair closest to scalp first, then apply outward towards ends of hair; completely covering scalp and hair. Leave on for 10 minutes (start timing treatment after the scalp and hair have been completely covered). The hair should then be rinsed thoroughly with water; wait 24 hours before shampooing. Wash hands after applying product. Avoid contact with the eyes. Nit combing is not required, although a fine-tooth comb may be used to remove treated lice and nits. Lotion is for one-time use; discard any unused portion. Ivermectin should be a portion of a whole lice removal program, which should include washing or dry cleaning all clothing, hats, bedding, and towels recently worn or used by the patient and washing combs, brushes, and hair accessories in hot soapy water.

Topical cream: For external use only. Not for use in the eye, mouth or vagina. Wash hands with soap and water prior to application and after application. Apply a pea-size amount as a thin layer on each affected area (eg, forehead, chin, nose, each cheek).

Administration: Pediatric

For external use only. Not for use in the eye, mouth, or vagina.

Head lice: Topical lotion 0.5%: Apply to dry scalp and hair closest to scalp first, then apply outward towards ends of hair, completely covering scalp and hair. Leave on for 10 minutes (start timing treatment after the scalp and hair have been completely covered). The hair should then be rinsed thoroughly with water alone. Wait 24 hours after application before applying shampoo. Avoid contact with the eyes; do not use on lice in eyebrows or eyelashes, or inside the nose, ear, mouth, or vagina. Nit combing is not required, although a fine-tooth comb may be used to remove treated lice and nits. Lotion is for one-time use; discard any unused portion.

Ivermectin should be a component of a comprehensive lice removal program, which should include washing or dry cleaning all clothing, hats, bedding, and towels recently worn or used by the patient and washing combs, brushes, and hair accessories in hot, soapy water.

Use: Labeled Indications

Head lice (Pediculus capitis) (lotion): Treatment of head lice infestations in patients 6 months and older.

Rosacea (cream): Treatment of inflammatory lesions of rosacea in adult patients.

Metabolism/Transport Effects

None known.

Drug Interactions

There are no known significant interactions.

Pregnancy Considerations

Although use in pregnancy is likely low risk, agents other than ivermectin are currently recommended for the treatment of pediculosis pubis or scabies in pregnant patients (CDC [Workowski 2021]). Agents other than ivermectin may also be preferred for the treatment of rosacea during pregnancy (Gomolin 2021; Murase 2014).

Breastfeeding Considerations

It is not known if ivermectin is present in breast milk following topical application.

Ivermectin is present in breast milk following oral administration. According to the manufacturer, the decision to breastfeed during therapy should consider the risk of infant exposure, the benefits of breastfeeding to the infant, and the benefits of treatment to the mother. Use of topical ivermectin for the treatment of pediculosis pubis or scabies is likely compatible with breastfeeding (CDC [Workowski 2021]).

Monitoring Parameters

Lotion: Monitor scalp for live lice.

Mechanism of Action

In pediculosis capitus treatment, ivermectin is a semisynthetic anthelminthic agent; it binds selectively and with strong affinity to glutamate-gated chloride ion channels which occur in invertebrate nerve and muscle cells. This leads to increased permeability of cell membranes to chloride ions then hyperpolarization of the nerve or muscle cell, and death of the parasite.

In rosacea treatment, the mechanism of action is unknown.

Pharmacokinetics (Adult Data Unless Noted)

Protein binding: >99%.

Metabolism: Metabolized hepatically by CYP3A4.

Half-life elimination: 1% cream: ~6.5 days.

Time to peak: 1% cream: ~10 hours post application.
