FAQs about Stromectol
What should I do if I miss a dose?

Can I take Stromectol while pregnant or breastfeeding?
The use of Stromectol during pregnancy should be considered only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. It is not known whether ivermectin is excreted in human milk; therefore, caution should be exercised when administering Stromectol to nursing mothers.
