"Broad spectrum antiparasitic that works by paralyzing the invader so it loses its grip and is flushed out safely and without releasing its internal contents which can cause aggravating reaction to toxins within. Well tolerated, safe, and effective against many different types of parasites, some of which are still unidentified. Not effective for pinworm, hookworm, or trichinosis, but when combined with subsequent albendazole or mebendazole use, will eradicate the majority of offending known and some unknown parasites. Be sure to use as directed and do a short course follow-up retreatment as it may not work against eggs or cyst forms, which may take 7-14 days to hatch. This medicine has a long half-life, and doses tend to be cumulative for days."

"100 mg three times a week. Repeat after 2 weeks. Drug resistance is becoming noted with many other therapies. Check for contradictory interactions and use alternatives if required."
