Antihelminthic drugs mebendazole

Albendazole, mebendazole and thiabendazole which are described under Antihelminthic drugs (p.276). [Pg.233]

Answer D. Praziquantel is the drug of choice for treatment of all fluke (trematode) infections and most tapeworm (cestode) infections. Its antihelminthic action derives from an increase in membrane permeability to Ca, which results in contraction, followed by paralysis, of worm musculature. Mebendazole also has antihelminthic activity, hut it is restricted to the nematodes. The other drugs listed are antiprotozoals. [Pg.227]
