Ivermectin mechanism of action
Since the flukes and tapeworms do not use GABA as the transmitter, and lack the Cl channel controlled by glutamic acid, this class of drugs is ineffective. The peripheral neurotransmitter in mammals is acetylcholine. Although GABA is distributed in the central nervous system, it is relatively safe because it is not easy to pass through the blood-brain barrier and has little effect on it.
