What are the different types of treatment of philaiosis?

There are a number of phillarial diseases caused by different types of parasitic worms. Each type causes different symptoms and affects different parts of the body. The best treatment of philarosis is appropriately selected. The most commonly used medicines for the treatment of philariasis are diethylcarbamazine and ivermectin, sometimes in combination with albendazole. The attending physician chooses the best treatment of philarosis by place, symptoms and causal organism. There are various organisms that can cause philariasis. These include Wucheria Bancrofti, Brugia Timori and Brugia Malayi that cause lymphatic philaarosis; loo that causes Loasis; Streptocerca's Manesonel , which causes subcutaneous philarosis; and onchocerca Volvulus that causes onchocericiasis.

Filariasis is transmitted to the human host to the human host in larval forming by biting insects such as mosquitoes and flies, and can affect different parts of the body. The worms in the body ripen inthe course of 12 months. Once mature, they reproduce and release microfilariae. Adult worms can live in their human host for years, so the treatment of philarosis often requires repetition.

Lymphatic philarosis occurs when the lymphatic system becomes blocked and damaged by worms. If it is not treated, it can develop on the elephant. This is when parts of the body, such as limbs or scrotum, swell extremely. The condition is often referred to as eleptantitis. It is worrying and painful and may result in secondary infection.

eye infections can lead to permanent blindness. Onchocerciasis is commonly known as "river blindness". The treatment of philarosis is essential for the previous long -term, serious effects.

The treatment of philariasis can be either diethylcarbamazine or ivermectin with albendazole. Diethylcarbamazine quickly cleans the microfilation for a long time but has slowerThe effect on adult worms, which requires repeated doses. Iivermectin used as the only dose reduces microphilation for a long time, although the treatment is required at three to 12 months intervals until adult worms are removed. Albendazole, although not used for onchocemerciasi, can be effective as a supplement for other phillarial infections, due to its effect on adult worms.

For lymphatic treatment of philariasis, diethylcarbamazine or ivermectin with albendazole can be administered as an annual dose for five years. Doxycycline is also used to treat onchocerca Volvulus and Wucheria Bancrofti because it can interrupt microfilaria production by causing sterility in the female non -atode or worm. It is used as a daily dose for six weeks. The choice of treatment of philariasis will be determined by the attending physician.
