Is ivermectin usually cheaper than newer brand-name medicines?
In many markets, ivermectin is considered relatively affordable compared with newer, branded specialty drugs, largely because it’s available in generic form in many places. That said, “cheap” can still differ by retailer and region, especially if you need the specific formulation your clinician recommends.
