HUVEMEC 3 mg, tablets, manufactured by Huvepharma, Bulgaria, containing the active substance Ivermectin
Subject to a medical prescription
Only for use in hospitalized patients over 18 years of age
Risk of teratogenicity
0.2 mg / kg / day administered on days 1, 3 and 5
Maximum daily dose of 24 mg was evaluated as safe and most appropriate.
Can be given to inpatient health care providers
Due to the favorable safety profile and lack of other treatment alternatives
It is more appropriate to allow the use of an unregistered medicinal product under controlled conditions
Thus prevent reckless use of Ivermectin obtained on the black market or by using inappropriate veterinary products or dosage forms (cream, paste).
The patient must be informed that he is being treated with an unregistered medicinal product
that is not used in accordance with the marketing authorization and will be aware of its benefits and risks.
