FASCIOLA HEPATICA:

Treatment and Control

A
  • Treatment: triclabendazole, nitazoxanide, surgical treatment
  • Prevention is through sanitary way of human waste disposal but will not eliminate the parasite due to presence of reservoir hosts such as goats, sheep, and cows. Sanitary protection of watercress beds against the infection should also be considered. Thorough cooking of vegetable will kill metacercaria but may not be accepted as such will change the appearance and nutritional value of the vegetable.
