Interventions

DRUG

Ivermectin

2 doses of Ivermectin will be administered with 48 hours time interval. The dosage is based on body weight calculated as follows: * 15 mg for 40-60 kg = 5 tablets à 3 mg * 18 mg for 60-80 kg = 6 tablets à 3 mg * 24 mg for \> 80 kg = 8 tablets à 3 mg each This corresponds to an ivermectin dose of about 300 µg / kg.

DRUG

Placebo

An analogous number of tablets is administered for placebo: * 5 tablets for 40-60 kg * 6 tablets for 60-80 kg * 8 tablets for \> 80 kg The size, appearance, smell and taste of the tablets of placebo are identical to Ivermectin.
