 Deaths associated with ivermectin treatment of scabies The Lancet v.349, 19apr97
Ivermectin: a review of its antifilarial activity, pharmacological properties, and clinical efficacy in onchoceriasis.
In particular, confounding by an underlying medical condition or interaction with another treatment (such as lindane or psychoactive drugs) needs to be ruled out.
We suggest, in the face of what appears to be a significant statistical association between use of ivermectin and increased risk of death, that ivermectin should not be used for treatment of scabies in the elderly, pending clarification of whether the association is causal.

Ivermectin is a widely used anthelmintic drug whose nematocidal mechanism is incompletely understood.
Since avr-15 confers sensitivity to ivermectin and ivermectin is thought to be an agonist of glutamate-gated chloride channels,

 Environmental Risks from Ivermectin
Ivermectin is a widely used veterinary and human medicine.
New research by Dr Alastair Grant and Andrew Briggs, of UEA’s world-rated School of Environmental Sciences, raises serious concerns about the environmental safety of this drug, although they say there are unlikely to be significant risks to humans from eating the salmon.
More importantly, there are a number of other compounds that are now licenced for the same use, and these drugs have been through a full ecotoxicity assessment, using procedures laid down by MAFF Veterinary Medicines Directorate.

 Effects of ivermectin and midecamycin on ryanodine receptors and the Ca2+-ATPase in sarcoplasmic reticulum of rabbit ...
Ivermectin increased the activity of native and FKBP12-stripped RyR channels, without affecting single channel conductance.
There was no change in twitch or tetanic tension for up to 20 min after adding the drug (preparation run-down prevented an examination of longer exposures).
The results suggest that midecamycin altered activity in some native, control-incubated and FKBP12-stripped channels in much the same way as ivermectin.

 696. Ivermectin (WHO Food Additives Series 27)
Ivermectin was negative in three in vitro assays for genotoxicity.
These two severely affected dogs showed significantly increased brain drug levels (Pulliam et al., 1985).
The results of this study suggested that the transfer of the drug via the milk was probably responsible for the increase in neonatal mortality observed in multigeneration studies.

 Filaria Journal Full text Impact of ivermectin on onchocerciasis transmission: assessing the empirical evidence that ...
However, as the pattern of decline in epidemiological parameters was similar to that observed in basins where only ivermectin distribution was used, and as the main part of the improvement seems to have occurred after the introduction of ivermectin treatment, it seems plausible that the contribution of ivermectin was dominant.
Therefore, at this moment, practical examples of successes of attempts to eliminate transmission would be much more cogent arguments in favour of the hypothesis that this is possible by using ivermectin alone.
Data on 6-monthly treatments are not sufficient to draw definitive conclusions.

My feeling on ivermectin is this - if there is an equally effective alternative, why not use it?
For those people, using ivermectin may be their best alternative.
I have heard that Border Collies are sensitive to ivermectin and so I shouldn't be giving my dog Heartgard because it might kill her.

 PetPlace.com - Article: Ivermectin Toxicity
Ivermectin toxicity is seen when an overdose of the drug ivermectin is administered or consumed.
Ivermectin has been used to prevent parasite infections, as with heartworm prevention, and to treat infections, as with ear mites.
Abnormalities in blood gas analysis may be seen in association with respiratory depression, which is slower and more shallow breathing.
