Your doctor may give you different instructions for each component of the Ziverdo Kit. That’s normal—and important.

General Guidance

• Read the label for each medicine in the kit
• Take exactly as prescribed; do not change doses or timing on your own
• If your provider gives timing directions (for example, spacing zinc and doxycycline), stick to those. Minerals like zinc can bind with some antibiotics and affect absorption
• Doxycycline tips Swallow with a full glass of water and stay upright for 30 minutes to reduce heartburn/irritation. Many clinicians suggest avoiding antacids, iron, and calcium close to doxycycline doses
• Food Your provider may advise whether to take each item with or without food based on your situation

Missed a Dose

• If you miss a dose, take it when you remember unless it’s close to your next one
• If it’s close, skip the missed dose don’t double up
• If you’re unsure what to do, call your clinician or pharmacist

Side Effects and Safety

Common Side Effects

• Ivermectin: Dizziness, nausea, diarrhea, tiredness
• Doxycycline: Nausea, stomach upset, heartburn, photosensitivity (easier sunburn), yeast infection
• Zinc: Metallic taste, nausea, stomach irritation

Serious or Less Common—Get Help Quickly

• Allergic reactions (rash, hives, swelling of face/lips/tongue, trouble breathing)
• Severe skin reactions or blistering
• Strong headache with vision changes (possible pressure changes in the head with doxycycline)
• Severe or persistent diarrhea (could be a sign of C. diff with antibiotics)
• Dark urine, yellowing of eyes/skin, severe stomach pain (possible liver issues—seek care)

Interactions to Watch

• Doxycycline: Antacids, iron, calcium, magnesium, and zinc can reduce absorption if taken together. Certain retinoids (like isotretinoin), blood thinners (warfarin), and seizure meds can interact always share your full med list
• Ivermectin: Some medicines that affect liver enzymes or P‑glycoprotein can change levels; your clinician will review your meds
• Zinc: High doses can interfere with absorption of some antibiotics; timing matters follow your provider’s plan
