Abstract :

Ivermectin is an antiparasitic drug often used to treat internal and external parasites. Haemonchus contortus, commonly known as barber worm. It is a parasitic nematode that poses a serious threat to livestock, particularly in agriculture. Over the years, anthelmintics such as ivermectin have been widely used to control and treat these parasitic infections. However, the emergence of resistance to ivermectin in Haemonchus contortus has increased concerns in the scientific community. The article also describes the possible mechanism and consequences of ivermectin resistance.
