Ivermectin is one of the most important antibiotics discovered. It is recognised as a landmark drug by the American Chemical Society and its discoverers received the Nobel Prize in 2015. Additionally, ivermectin is one of the most widely used anti-parasitic drugs for animals and humans. Since 1987, about 3·7 billion treatments have been given worldwide primarily for mass drug administration (MDA) campaigns for onchocerciasis and lymphatic filariasis in sub-Saharan Africa. Ivermectin is also highly effective against strongyloides, scabies, and ticks, and it has recently been shown to be an effective endectocide that kills feeding mosquitoes with the potential to reduce malaria transmission. The use of ivermectin will expand. For example, findings showed that ivermectin combined with diethylcarbamazine and albendazole is more effective than diethylcarbamazine plus albendazole as part of an MDA campaign for the treatment of lymphatic filariasis, resulting in greatly expanded use of ivermectin in MDA programmes worldwide.^,

伊维菌素在怀孕期间安全吗？

伊维菌素是发现的最重要的抗生素之一。它是美国化学学会（American Chemical Society）公认的地标药物，其发现者于2015年获得了诺贝尔奖。此外，伊维菌素是最广泛用于动物和人类的抗寄生虫药物之一。自1987年以来，世界范围内已针对主要针对撒哈拉以南非洲的盘尾丝虫病和淋巴丝虫病的大规模药物管理（MDA）运动提供了约3·70亿种治疗方法。伊维菌素对付类线虫，sc疮和壁虱也非常有效，最近已被证明是一种有效的内生杀菌剂，可以杀死正在喂食的蚊子，并具有减少疟疾传播的潜力。伊维菌素的用途将会扩大。例如，^，
