The Variation Between Praziquantel And Albendazole In The Medical Treatment Of Hydated Disease

Abstract

ABSTRACTThis study reflects the differences between the Praziquantel and Albendazole effectiveness in the medical treatment of hydrated disease. And it shows that the combination of both drugs (Albendazole 10mgkg b.i.d. for 28 days 3 courses separated by 2 weeks intervals, and Praziquantel 40mgkg once weekly as adjunct to Albendazole ), was more effective(57.14%), than Praziquantel(47.37%) alone in a dose of 40mgkg for 28 day, 3 courses separated 2 weeks intervals. While the Albendazole alone was (41.93%) effective in the treatment of hydatidosis.
