Praziquantel for Schistosoma haematobium "I felt an incredible difference after the 2nd dosage. No more headaches and overall feeling better. I am so impressed and so grateful. Side effects - I felt dizzy and weak on the day I used it, the next day it was gone."

Praziquantel for Schistosoma haematobium "I tested positive for bilharzia. I was given six of Biltricide - those bad boys, I guess, because I weighed 155 kg. It’s a tough one, they had me dizzy, sleepy, and disoriented. Luckily, I took them at night. Remember, guys, this stuff is strong. I couldn’t taste or feel my mouth or throat when I swallowed, but as the sleep set in, all was well in the morning."

Praziquantel for Schistosoma japonicum "Took 4 pills in one go. Oops. Don't take them all in one go. It ruins you. I chundered at work. In the first aid room sink. Hello again, Nando's sunset burger. I only saw you 2 hours ago. This medication is tough. Only if you're 'ard. I am not that."

For Paragonimus westermani, Lung Fluke "This patient in our clinic was diagnosed by our lab technicians with S. haematobium and Paragonimus westermani in his urine. When he was given praziquantel, he said he noticed some greenish substance coming out when he was urinating after drug administration. This, however, disappeared in 3 days. This could be the result of the disruptive effect of the drug on the calcium homeostasis of the parasite. Specialists, am I right?"

For Pork Tapeworm Infection "I passed a 20” tapeworm! Was prescribed Praziquantel! Had side effects of fever, dizziness, and stomach pain, which I continue to have weeks later! Kinda a “stupor” effect! Appetite was weak, could only eat light foods! I’m glad I was able to get the tapeworm situation cleared up! But now the dizziness, side effects, and stomach ache still are current!"
