Praziquantel is an antiparasitic agent primarily used to treat parasitic infections. It is particularly effective against trematode infections such as those caused by liver flukes or lung flukes. This ingredient is prescribed with the aim of killing or removing parasites.
Praziquantel works by damaging the cell membranes of parasites, preventing them from functioning properly within the body. As a result, the parasites become paralyzed and eventually die. This helps to alleviate the symptoms of infection by removing the parasites.
