Abstract
Niclosamide and Dichlorophen have been tried in infection with F. buski in an endemic area of Bangladesh. Niclosamide is the commonly used agent for this condition, but was found to reduce the ova count by about 48.5% only and repeat treatment did not improve the result. Dichlorophen is advocated for tape worm, but was found to reduce the ova count by 83.3% and repeat treatment completely eradicated infection with F. buski.Entities:
