Not tapeworm.
Ivermectin works on other types of worms and is used esp. for roundworm (Ascariasis). And ivermectin kills lice, bedbugs et al.
In any case, anyone living in the southern USA likely carries some parasite that ivermectin kills off. E.g., children often pick up head lice and other parasites at day care or school.
Ivermectin is well-tolerated and easily applied, really a "wonder drug" that we're lucky to have (but aren't they all?).
