Here’s what I had in a file to calculate the Ivermectin concentrations in face or eye cream:
Ivermectin & Rosacea
Dosage Forms and Strengths
Cream, 1%. Each gram of Ivermectin Cream contains 10 mg of ivermectin in a white to pale yellow cream base. Ivermectin Cream is supplied in tubes of 45 g.
Ivermectin Cream Dosage and Administration
Apply to the affected areas of the face once daily. Use a pea-size amount for each area of the face (forehead, chin, nose, each cheek) that is affected. Spread as a thin layer, avoiding the eyes and lips. Ivermectin Cream is not for oral, ophthalmic, or intravaginal use.
Ivermectin
12 mg tablets:
45 g cream/10 mg ivermectin =
X g cream/12 mg ivermectin
X = 54 g cream
For eye cream, use 1/4:
13.5 g cream
3 mg ivermectin (1/4 tablet)
Horse paste 1.87% 6.08 g total
6.08 * .0187 = .114 g ivermectin or 114 mg in whole tube
X/114 = 45/10 X = 513 grams cream for whole tube
• From Covid calcs, each notch is 4.55 mg * 25 notches = 114 mg total.
X/4.55 = 45/10 X = 20.5 grams cream per notch
Using for ocular rosacea
The ivermectin group applied topical ivermectin 1% cream (Soolantra) to the upper and lower eyelashes once weekly using a cotton swab and then carefully wiped it with an eyelid cleanser 15 minutes later.
Thanks, so much, for the Ivm cream calcs, CB. Now, to put on my math hat 😜, and get into my Ivm and empty jars stash :)
