| Actions | |
| Ivermectin acts by binding selectively and with high affinity to glutamate-gated chloride channels in invertebrate nerve and muscle cells. This leads to hyperpolarisation of these cells, resulting in flaccid paralysis and death of the parasite. Praziquantel increases permeability of tegumental and muscle cells to calcium ions, which results in parasitic muscular contraction and paralysis. |
