Every day, a large number of pathogenic micro-creatures enter our body. Among these are the larvae of various parasites. If all is in order with the human immune system, these harmful worms die and are excreted along with the waste products. But if there are problems with the immune system, bacteria, microbes and larvae of all kinds of parasites successfully take root in the walls of internal organs and begin to grow and multiply, poisoning the body and absorbing health.
Preparation
If a person decides to cleanse the body, regardless of the cleansing method, he should prepare for this procedure. To start cleaning, you need to make sure that the worms are actually coiled inside the person. The presence of symptoms of helminthiasis is not an indicator to start treatment. It is also important to find out what type of parasite lives in the body. Choosing the most optimal treatment depends on the diagnosis.
To find out whether parasites really live in the body, in addition to the usual laboratory examination of feces for helminthiasis, it is necessary to perform other modern medical diagnostics for an accurate diagnosis.
After the examination, about 10 days before the treatment, you should switch to a healthy and light diet (eliminate sweets, spicy and fatty foods, semi-finished products from the diet). It is wise to exclude meat these days by switching to fruits and vegetables. It is also important to provide moisture to the body. To do this, you need to drink 2-3 liters of pure water per day, treat other types of liquids with caution: you should not drink strong teas, coffee, carbonated and alcoholic beverages. But herbal teas will come in handy. It is also necessary to get rid of constipation with enemas.
Fight parasites with medicines
There are many techniques to get rid of parasites. Some of them are more effective, some less. Classical medicine offers medication. Unlike traditional healing methods, synthetic drugs are more effective in fighting helminths and are safe for the body.
All a person's worm medications can be conditionally divided into two groups: they immediately kill the parasite, and they paralyze their body. All medications for worms are divided into two types: broad-spectrum and targeted medications. Almost all anthelmintic agents have an extensive effect on the body and help to eliminate various types of parasites.
There is also another classification of drugs with specific objectives:
- Protivocestodozny - helps in the fight against flatworms;
- Antinematous: kills roundworm species;
- Protivotrematodozny - fight against flounder worms.
Peculiarities of drug treatment
The main specificity of getting rid of parasites from the body with the help of drugs is that the cleansing is carried out in several stages: the preparatory, the direct therapy itself, and the final - the rehabilitation period.
During the first stage, it is necessary to prepare the body for cleaning the worms. For this, laxative drugs are used, which help to remove toxins and traces of parasites from the body with waste products. For this, doctors prescribe the intake of funds based on vegetable oils (pumpkin, flax). Absorbents are also used. Sometimes in the prescription you can see a choleretic drug that adversely affects parasites and accelerates the production of bile.
This is followed by the second stage, during which the parasites get rid of themselves with the use of drugs of a narrow and broad spectrum. The type of drug directly depends on the age of the patient, the location of the worms, the intensity of damage to the body, the stage of development of the worms and their type. There are three groups of anthelmintic drugs: nitramidazole, nitrofuran, and benmidazole.
After cleansing the body, it is necessary to undergo a period of rehabilitation, which will help restore the proper functioning of the intestines and eliminate inflammatory processes. Also, the patient needs to take vitamins and minerals.
Contraindications and complications of drug treatment
Almost all medications can be taken as prescribed by a doctor, not in a hospital, but at home. But before taking any antiparasitic agents to cleanse the body, you need to understand that they are poison not only for the "wicked", but also for people. Therefore, taking almost all of these drugs has side effects: nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, dizziness. Chills, swelling, impaired movement coordination, seizures, hallucinations, impaired consciousness are also observed.
As for contraindications, they are strictly prohibited for people with liver, kidney or heart disease.
Today, there is no single standard of treatment for helminthiasis. The doctor prescribes a separate treatment for each patient, guided by laboratory tests.
Features of home helminthiasis drug therapy
When using the body's drug treatment against parasites, you should know that taking most drugs for harmful worms requires a repeated preventive course. This is due to the fact that the drugs affect adults, and the larvae can survive and continue their activity in the body.
