    Can Ivermectin be administered in drinking water?

    Yes, this done all the time. You can use "injectable" ivermectine that is not water soluble in the water. It will separate over time so you may want to shake up the waterer if you can. You use it in the water for a couple days, discard it afterwards, then do it again in two weeks
