Safety of Ivermectin in Dogs

In many cases, the safety of Ivermectin is directly related to the dosage administered. As with many drugs, higher dosages tend to have higher risks of complications and potential side effects associated. Ivermectin is used in many dosage ranges, depending on the purpose of its usage. Dosages used for preventing heartworm infections are generally relatively low, with little risk of side effects. Higher dosages, such as those used to treat demodectic mange, sarcoptic mange, ear mites, ​and other parasitic infections, are more likely to be associated with adverse reactions. However, for most dogs, Ivermectin is considered to be a relatively safe medication when used appropriately.
