Compounded Ivermectin Dosage Forms at Rock Ridge Pharmacy
At Rock Ridge Pharmacy, we offer a full range of compounded Ivermectin dosage forms to meet diverse treatment goals. Patients can choose from custom capsules for precise systemic dosing, oral liquid suspensions for flexible, weight-based administration, topical creams and lotions for localized skin conditions, and topical pastes designed for prolonged contact and targeted relief. Each option is carefully prepared to support accurate dosing, better tolerability, and individualized care.
Compounded Ivermectin Capsules
At Rock Ridge Pharmacy, we offer compounded Ivermectin capsules in a wide range of strengths to support individualized treatment plans. Available strengths include 3 mg, 4 mg, 6 mg, 9 mg, 11 mg, 12 mg, 14 mg, 16 mg, 18 mg, and higher strengths like 20 mg and 24 mg, along with other custom doses based on your provider’s prescription.
These capsules are ideal for precise, weight-based dosing—typically 150–200 µg/kg—commonly used to treat parasitic infections such as strongyloidiasis and onchocerciasis. They also support integrative and functional medicine protocols that often require dosing flexibility beyond what standard 3 mg commercial tablets can provide. Compounded Ivermectin capsules help reduce pill burden, improve dosing accuracy, and accommodate pediatric, geriatric, or off-label therapeutic needs. This tailored approach ensures each patient receives the appropriate strength and formulation to support their specific health goals.
Compounded Ivermectin Liquid
Oral liquid Ivermectin is a compounded formulation ideal for patients who need an alternative to capsules or tablets. This liquid suspension allows for precise, weight-based dosing, which is especially useful for children, older adults, or individuals who have difficulty swallowing pills.
Common compounded concentrations include 1% (10 mg/mL), but other custom strengths can be prepared based on your healthcare provider’s prescription. The liquid can be flavored to improve taste and make administration easier while delivering consistent therapeutic amounts for conditions such as parasitic infections, scabies, or rosacea. This formulation also supports integrative and functional medicine protocols by offering flexibility in dosing and the ability to adjust treatment as needed.
Compounded Topical Ivermectin
Topical Ivermectin is a customizable cream or lotion used for targeted treatment of skin conditions like rosacea, scabies, and head lice. Commonly prepared at 0.5% or 1% strength, it can also be combined with other active ingredients such as metronidazole, niacinamide, or azelaic acid to create dual-action formulations that enhance anti-parasitic and anti-inflammatory effects.
In addition to standard preparations, other customized and compounded options can be created to match your provider’s prescription, skin type, and treatment goals. Whether used alone or as part of a combination therapy, topical Ivermectin delivers precise, localized treatment with minimal systemic absorption, helping improve both efficacy and patient convenience.
Topical Ivermectin Paste
Topical Ivermectin paste is a semisolid formulation, commonly prepared at 1% strength, designed for targeted treatment of skin conditions such as scabies, head lice, and parasitic dermatoses. This paste provides prolonged skin contact and localized delivery with minimal systemic absorption, making it an effective option for patients who prefer a topical approach. It can also be custom compounded and combined with other ingredients like niacinamide or metronidazole to address inflammation or specific skin concerns.
Clinical studies have demonstrated excellent results, showing high cure rates and good tolerability. For more detailed clinical information, you can visit the NIH Ivermectin resource.
Proper Storage for Ivermectin Capsules, Liquid, and Topical Forms
Ivermectin should be stored at controlled room temperature between 68°F and 77°F (20°C to 25°C). Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures and do not refrigerate or freeze unless specifically advised by your pharmacist or healthcare provider.
To maintain potency and safety:
-
Keep in a cool, dry place, away from heat sources, humidity, and direct sunlight
-
Store in its original, labeled container with the lid tightly closed
