A medicine for parasites in the body can also be a popular medicine if, for example, a patient has a drug intolerance.
However, these agents must be prescribed by a physician, as parasitic diseases can be caused by various pathogens, whose vital activity is also suppressed by various means.
Should we get rid of parasites?
Human parasitic diseases are divided into helminthiasis (caused by worms) and protozoal infections (caused by protozoa). Both they and others can be dangerous to the human body.
Thus, helminthiases cause disturbances in the work of the intestines, the products of their vital activity disrupt the functioning of the liver, reduce the ability to work and in children delay physical and neuropsychic development. In addition, they promote sensitization (allergy) of the body and create a favorable background for the development of allergic diseases. Protozoa are no less dangerous.
Trichomonas are the cause of sexually transmitted infections.
Giardia is dangerous mainly for children, in whom they can cause intoxication and allergic diseases.
How are parasitic infections treated
If you suspect a parasitic infection, see your doctor. He will first perform an examination, and then prescribe a medicine that is suitable for treating the identified disease. In this case, all indications and contraindications for the appointment of this drug should be considered.
Sometimes the patient is intolerant to medication or simply does not want to use "chemistry". In this case, the doctor may prescribe a folk remedy for parasites in the body.
Folk remedies, such as medicines from a pharmacy, can not be absolutely safe, as a certain dose of them is required to destroy parasites, which most often have side effects. Only a doctor can take into account all the nuances of the action of folk remedies for parasites.
