Taenia solium

Both the adult and the larval cysticerci (bladderworm) of Taenia solium (pork tapeworm) are able to Hve in humans the parasite is found sporadically in uncooked pork. In the stomach, the larva is digested out of the pork flesh it then grows and attaches to the wall of the small intestine. Maturity is reached in 5—12 weeks. The adult is 5 m long, and untreated adult worms may survive for 25 years. [Pg.244]

This dmg was used prior to the availabiUty of niclosamide and is considered less satisfactory for the treatment of tapeworms than niclosamide (24). It causes more side effects and produces severe nausea. Quinacrine, however, is preferred by some clinicians for the treatment of Taenia solium infection because, unlike niclosamide, it expels the worms intact, thus reducing the theoretical risk of cysticercosis (25). [Pg.245]

If the specimen is difficult to examine, raise the tape from the front of the glass slide, add a drop of toluene to the slide, and replace the tape smoothly with an applicator stick. (Remember. Enterobius spp. and Taenia solium eggs are infective )... [Pg.23]

Niclosamide is an anthelmintic, which is active against various intestinal tapeworms. It is the drug of choice for tapeworm infections due to Taenia Saginata, Diphyllobothrium Latum, and Taenia Solium. Niclosamide is particularly effective... [Pg.92]

Tapeworm infections are caused by Taenia solium. Tinea pedis causes the fungal infection known os athlete s foot. Yersinia pestis is implicated in plague, Candida albicans is responsible for candidiasis while Chlamydia frachomifis causes eye infections. [Pg.204]

Paromomycin sulfate has been recommended for other parasitic infections — Dientamoeba fragilis (25 to 30 mg/kg/day in 3 doses for 7 days) Diphyllobothrium latum, Taenia saginata, Taenia solium, Dipylidium caninum adults 1 g every 15 minutes P.968... [Pg.1652]

Adult tapeworm infections in humans are usually treated with praziquantel (Table 12.4), but with adult Taenia solium there may be neurological side effects if patients are also infected with cysts, so niclosamide, that has no effect on the cysts, is the preferred treatment (Garcia et a/., 2003). [Pg.246]
