Oxantel pamoate-albendazole for Trichuris trichiura infection.
BACKGROUND Infections with soil-transmitted helminths (Ascaris lumbricoides, hookworm, and Trichuris trichiura) are widespread and often occur concomitantly. These parasitic-worm infections are typically treated with albendazole or mebendazole, but both drugs show low efficacy against T. trichiura. Albendazole is the drug of choice against hookworm. METHODS In this double-blind trial conducte...
متن کاملGlobal deworming: moving past albendazole and mebendazole.
Since the 2001 adoption of the World Health Assembly (WHA) resolution calling for the global deworming of children affected by soil-transmitted helminth (STH) infections and schistosomiasis, the world’s public health leaders have gradually responded.

متن کاملEfficacy of mebendazole and albendazole against Trichinella spiralis in mice.
Changes in the sensitivity of Trichinella spiralis to anthelmintic treatment during the first 3 days of infection in mice were studied. Oral administration of either mebendazole or albendazole at 6.25 mh/kg 2 hr after exposure to infection eliminated 95-100% of the worms as determined at necropsy on day 7 postinoculation. Beyond the first day of infection the sensitivity of the parasite to benz...
متن کاملTherapy of human hydatid disease with mebendazole and albendazole.
We report our experience in the treatment with benzoimidazole carbamates (mebendazole and albendazole) of 337 patients affected by hydatid cysts with different localizations. The treated cysts showed degenerative modifications in 50.6% of the cases after mebendazole treatment and in about 80% after albendazole treatment. Relapses after therapy were observed in 30% of the cases; about 95% of the...
متن کاملTreatment of echinococcosis: albendazole and mebendazole – what else?
The search for novel therapeutic options to cure alveolar echinococcosis (AE), due to the metacestode of Echinococcus multilocularis, is ongoing, and these developments could also have a profound impact on the treatment of cystic echinococcosis (CE), caused by the closely related Echinococcus granulosus s.l. Several options are being explored. A viable strategy for the identification of novel c...
