Summary

This is a clinical trial to compare two formulations of the drug ivermectin: the standard 3mg tablet formulation versus a newly developed infant formula preparation. The goal of the trial is to determine if the new formulation functions in the same way, tastes the same and causes no new side effects. The trial will involve 52 participants who will be healthy adult volunteers. The participants will receive both formulations - the order they receive each formulation will be assigned randomly (similar to the toss of a coin).
