Solution(By Examveda Team)

Ivermectin drug used as anthelmintic by producing its effect by gaba mediated hyperpolarization.
Ivermectin is in a class of medications called anthelmintics. It treats strongyloidosis by killing the worms in the intestines. It treats onchocerciasis by killing the developing worms.
The standard theory of its anthelmintic and insecticidal mode of action is that it is a selective positive allosteric modulator of glutamate-gated chloride channels found in nematodes and insects.
