Product introduction

Demect 10mg Injection is generally administered by a doctor or a nurse, usually into a muscle or a vein.

How Demect Injection works

Demect 10mg Injection works by binding to specific chloride channels in the nerve and muscle cells of parasites. These channels are controlled by a chemical called glutamate. When ivermectin binds to these channels, it causes an increased flow of chloride ions, which leads to paralysis and death of the parasite. This helps the body eliminate the parasites and control the infection.
