Many pathogenic microcreatures enter our body every day. Among them are the larvae of various parasites. When all is well with the human immune system, these harmful worms die and are excreted along with the waste products. However, when there are problems with the immune system, bacteria, microbes and larvae of all kinds of parasites successfully take root on the walls of internal organs and begin to grow and multiply, poisoning the body and sucking out health.
Preparation
If, regardless of the method of cleansing, a person decides to cleanse the body, it is necessary to prepare for this procedure. To start cleaning, you need to make sure that the worms are really coiled up in the person. The presence of symptoms of helminthiasis is not an indicator of the start of treatment. It is also important to find out what type of parasite lives in the body. The choice of the most optimal treatment depends on the diagnosis.
In order to find out whether parasites actually live in the body, in addition to the usual laboratory examination of feces for helminthiasis, other modern medical diagnoses must be carried out in order to obtain an accurate diagnosis.
After the examination, about 10 days before the treatment, you must switch to a healthy and light diet (remove sweets, spicy and fatty foods, semi-finished products from the diet). It is advisable to exclude meat on these days by switching to fruits and vegetables. It is also important to keep the body hydrated. To do this, you should drink 2-3 liters of pure water a day, handling other types of liquids with caution: you should not drink strong teas, coffee, carbonated and alcoholic drinks. But herbal teas will come in handy. It is also necessary to get rid of constipation with enemas.
Fighting parasites with drugs
There are many techniques for getting rid of parasites. Some of them are more effective, some less. Classical medicine offers drugs. In contrast to conventional healing methods, synthetic drugs are more effective in the fight against helminths and are harmless to the body.
All medicines against worms for a person can conditionally be divided into two groups: those that immediately kill the parasite and paralyze its body. All anti-worm drugs are divided into two types: tightly targeted drugs and broad spectrum drugs. Almost all anthelmintics have a far-reaching effect on the body, helping to get rid of various types of parasites.
There is also another classification of narrowly targeted drugs:
- Protivocestodozny - help in the fight against flat worms;
- Antinematous - kill the roundworm species;
- Protivotrematodozny - fight against random worms.
Special features of drug treatment
The main specificity of removing parasites from the body with the help of drugs is that cleaning occurs in several stages: the preparatory direct therapy itself and the final phase of rehabilitation.
In the first phase, the body must be prepared to cleanse worms. To do this, laxatives are used, which help to remove toxins and traces of parasites from the body with waste products. To do this, doctors prescribe the use 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 speeds up the production of bile.
This is followed by the second phase, in which the parasites get rid of themselves through the use of drugs of a narrow and wide range. The type of medication 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 anthelmintics: nitramidazole, nitrofuran, and benmidazole.
After cleansing the body, it is necessary to carry out a period of rehabilitation in order to restore the correct functioning of the intestines and eliminate inflammatory processes. In addition, the patient must take vitamins and minerals.
Contraindications and complications of drug treatment
Almost all drugs can be taken as prescribed by a doctor, not in a hospital but at home. But before using any anti-parasitic drug to cleanse the body, you need to understand that it is poison not only for the "sick", but also for a person. Therefore, taking almost all of these drugs has side effects: nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, dizziness. Chills, swelling, movement disorders, convulsions, hallucinations, and impaired consciousness are also observed.
Contraindications are strictly forbidden for people with liver, kidney and heart diseases.
Today there is no single standard for helminthiasis therapy. The doctor prescribes a separate treatment for each patient, guided by laboratory tests.
