Niclosamide

Niclosamide is a teniacide ("tenia-" referring to tapeworm) in the Anthelmintic family especially effecive against cestodes that infect humans. It is stressed that while anthelmintics are a drug familiy used to treat worm infections, Niclosamde is used specifically to treat tapeworms and is not effective against worms such as pinworms or roundworms. It is a chewable tablet taken orally, dosage depending on type of worm and patient's age and/or weight. Niclosamide molecules are lethal to tapeworms upon contact.
