Wstępne wyniki prób stosowania Biltricidu (Bayer AG) w hymenolepidozie

The authors treated 15 students (Asia, Africa) infected with Hymenolepis nana, using a single dose of praziquantel Biltricid of 30 mg/kg b.w., administered as two portions 15 mg/kg b.w. each, with an interval of 6 hrs. After two months the parasites were found to be absent in 13 persons (86.7%). The tolerance for Biltricid was found to be good, though an ultimate answer to the question of its medical application requires further studies.
