  • Title: A praziquantel-ineffective fascioliasis case successfully treated with triclabendazole.
    Author: Ishii Y, Nakamura-Uchiyama F, Nawa Y.
    Journal: Parasitol Int; 2002 Jun; 51(2):205-9. PubMed ID: 12113760.
    Abstract:
    Human fascioliasis cases in Japan have been reported infrequently and the most appropriate therapy for this disease remains to be determined. This case report describes a patient with the infection unsuccessfully treated with multiple high doses of praziquantel for over 1 year and eventually cured by the administration of triclabendazole in two single doses of 10 mg/kg and 12.5 mg/kg 5 months apart.
