Environmental Safety

Studies indicate that when ivermectin comes in contact with the soil, it readily and tightly binds to the soil and becomes inactive over time. Drug containers and any residual contents should be disposed of safely, in accordance with local, provincial and national regulations. Free ivermectin may adversely affect fish or certain water-borne organisms.

Ivomec Drench for Sheep Caution

Coughing, which usually lasts for only a few minutes, may occur in a small percentage of sheep immediately after treatment; this passing response is of no consequence.
