Parasites still pose a serious threat. Therefore, it is necessary to know the possible ways of dealing with them, as well as the list of drugs that will become auxiliaries in this process.
The human body is an entire world that is attacked by its environment and the microorganisms that inhabit it. Not everyone is helpful or neutral towards a person. About 95% of people sooner or later encounter aggressive parasites (fungi, worms). These organisms can cause significant damage when they enter a person, so it is extremely important to get rid of them as soon as possible. Helminths live and reproduce using a person's internal resources, and sometimes just a few signs can indicate their presence in the body. But the worst is that they can cause the death of its bearer. It is not surprising that the question of how to get rid of parasites in the body does not lose its relevance.
Specificity of drug therapy
It is possible to get rid of parasites with medication or through folk methods. However, traditional medicine strongly recommends the use of the latter only as a means of preventing the appearance of pests or in conjunction with drug therapy. Otherwise, you may feel the aggravation of the disease or its serious complications.
Medications are still a much more productive means of fighting parasites, but they are quite toxic, so they can only be taken as directed by a doctor.
Even drug treatment for parasites is not an easy task and it is unlikely that it will be possible to save a person from such a nasty neighborhood very quickly. In fact, all anthelmintic pills are characterized by a complex action, the mechanisms of which are not fully understood.
Furthermore, in recent years, the problem of parasite resistance to them has become quite serious. And as residents of third world countries are mainly concerned with these problems, the percentage of medicinal innovations in this area, unfortunately, is small. However, it is the innovative medicines that can be considered the most effective.
It is important to consider that you should not use antiparasitic drugs for viral and somatic diseases, as well as for intestinal infections. Such treatment is also prohibited during pregnancy and lactation. The pests that have occupied the human body are divided into 3 subgroups:
- nematodes;
- trematodes;
- cestodes.
Based on which group the pest belongs to, drug therapy is prescribed. That's partly why it's so hard to get rid of them on your own without hurting yourself even more.
Preparing the body for therapy
An important period in treatment is the course of the examination that precedes it. The passage of several studies is the basis for choosing an effective method of drug therapy. However, it will be important to coordinate the patient's nutrition in the right direction. Before carrying out the parasite cleaning procedure, it is better to switch to a healthy and balanced diet.
A vegetarian diet is considered ideal. However, in addition to animal products, it is best to forget about heavy, fatty, sugary, and refined foods. For two weeks, it is recommended to adhere to a light and economical discharge diet. The body will greatly appreciate it if the diet is enriched with fruits, raw vegetables and freshly squeezed juices.
In addition, special attention should be paid to your own consumption regime. It is important to consume only purified water. The average amount of water you drink should be at least 2 liters a day.
It is recommended to forget about soda, thus pre-cleaning the intestines, kidneys, liver. If a person infected with helminths, in addition, suffers from constipation, it is better to start practicing enemas, for a better result of the therapy. In such cases, herbal decoctions of tansy, wormwood and other herbs are usually used.
Choosing an anthelmintic agent
Anthelmintic drugs with a certain degree of conventionality can be divided into 3 types:
- synthesized chemicals;
- herbal substances;
- homeopathic preparations.
Of course, each of the groups will have their positive and negative sides. However, they all have a common feature. All of them aim to create conditions for parasites that are absolutely unsuitable for their life and reproduction. However, the course of therapy is usually long and can last from 1 to 2 months or span an entire year.
Chemicals guarantee a high rate of effectiveness and show the effect after 1-2 months. However, such drugs are endowed with a high level of toxicity, as they poison both parasites and the body. Also, as a rule, the action of this drug is effective only for 1-2 types of helminths.
Herbal preparations are herbal extracts or preparations thereof. Such "drugs" accumulate plant poisons in the body, which are not tolerated by pests, and are forced to leave the human body, because they cannot adapt to them. In addition, these components enhance the body's natural protective functions and are safe for the body. However, the period of treatment with these means is quite long and can take up to a year.
Homeopathic Remedies - This treatment is also long term and involves a course of 3 months to a year. The effectiveness of such a treatment is proportional to the qualifications of the homeopath, his ability to choose the right remedies for the patient. Otherwise, the treatment effect will be zero.
Preparations for helminths, as already mentioned, are prescribed by a doctor only after carrying out appropriate tests. In addition, when prescribing a remedy, the personal characteristics of a person must be taken into account:
- your weight;
- age;
- the presence of allergies;
- intolerance to the components of the prescribed drug and other pathologies.
In addition, sensitive individual supervision of the course of treatment is carried out.
Preparations for nematodes
This subgroup of parasites includes pinworms, roundworms, whipworms, trichinella and toxocara. However, the most common cases of infection are the first two categories of pests.
To combat them, several drugs are effective, a specialist will select the appropriate one.
Extraintestinal pests on the body suggest a slightly different treatment. Ivermectin-based medications will help get rid of them quickly. But it is very important to follow the instructions of the drug and carry out a second course of treatment. The fact is that these drugs only act on sexually mature individuals, but they are not effective in combating their larvae and eggs.
Also, after taking the drug (preferably at night), it is recommended to do a cleansing enema and take a laxative. Such measures will significantly reduce the level of toxins in the body.
Remedies for Baskets
Although a considerable number of parasites are attributed to cestodes, however, infection with bovine tapeworm and broad tapeworm is more often found. This is a rather difficult case, but it is still possible to get rid of such parasites by carefully considering therapy first. Productive in the treatment of cestodes are special drugs prescribed by a specialist.
Preparations against trematodes and worms
This huge group of parasites includes lung, Chinese, feline and liver worms. This type of parasite is extremely dangerous in its effect on the human body and delayed therapy can have serious consequences.
The range of drugs is quite wide, but you should not try them. See a doctor if you suspect helminths or if you feel worse.
