Before thinking about how to get rid of parasites in the body, it is a good idea to do a test to confirm the presence of an invader and identify its type. However, any treatment can have side effects, which means that the treatment should be directed and meaningless.
Types of parasites
The most common parasites found in humans are:
- roundworms (roundworms, cream worms);
- flatworms (tapeworms, tapeworms, echinococcus);
- protozoa (amoeba, lamblia, chlamydia, trichomonas, toxoplasmosis);
- mushrooms;
- bacteria.
The most common worms (parasitic worms) found in humans are cream worms and ringworms. Often, children suffer from enterobiasis (a disease caused by the presence of cream worms in the body) and ascaris infection, because the eggs of this parasite enter the body mainly through dirty hands. With the presence of cream worms or ringworms in one family member, as a rule, all members of the household are infected.
Among protozoa, Giardia is the most common. They also enter the body due to poor hand hygiene.
Symptoms of parasitic attacks
The most obvious symptoms of human infection with parasitic organisms:
- constipation or diarrhea, bloating;
- pain in muscles and joints;
- manifestations of allergies, skin rashes, acne or eczema;
- obesity or excessive weight loss;
- sleep disturbances, chronic fatigue;
- significant decreased immunity.
How to get rid of parasites
Drug treatment
In medicine, there are a large number of drugs aimed at eliminating various parasites from the human body. The most famous among them and often used are the following drugs for parasites in the human body:
- roundworm medicine;
- medicines against tapeworms;
- tablets for flatworms.
Each drug for parasites in the human body is intended for a specific type of parasitic organism and can only be prescribed by a specialist after conducting the necessary tests to identify a specific type of parasite. In addition, some medications for the treatment of severe infections are only taken in hospitals under the supervision of a physician.
All drugs intended to cleanse the body of parasites act only on adults, while eggs are not killed with such pills. Therefore, as a rule, the intake of such drugs should be repeated a few weeks after the first dose. Dosage and method of administration are strictly prescribed by the doctor and have significant differences for adults and children (in addition, some drugs are not allowed in childhood).
Antiparasitic drugs are very effective, but have major drawbacks - they are toxic and have many side effects. That is why they can only be prescribed to adults and children by a doctor.
Side effect
The main side effects of parasitic pills include:
- dizziness and vomiting;
- painful sensation in the abdomen;
- headache, dizziness, confusion;
- impaired coordination of movements;
- liver and kidney dysfunction, renal failure;
- numbness or trembling of the limbs;
- rapid fatigue;
- seizures;
- sleep disorders;
- skin dermatitis.
Each drug has its own contraindications that cannot be ignored. Physicians must take into account the general condition of the patient before prescribing this or that medication.
Medical treatment for parasites involves complexity, i. e. one should not limit oneself to taking antiparasitic drugs, because along with it it is necessary to take drugs aimed at protecting the liver, increasing bile secretion, cleansing the intestines, and strengthening immunity. In addition, you need antihistamines and medications that reduce the toxic effects.
