?Banocide Forte is a medication containing Diethylcarbamazine over the counter(DEC), primarily used to treat various parasitic worm infections. Its main applications include:?
Filariasis (Elephantiasis): A condition caused by thread-like worms leading to swelling of body parts, commonly the legs. ?
Loiasis (African Eye Worm): An infection where the Loa loa worm migrates through the skin and across the eye. ?
Tropical Eosinophilia: A lung disease resulting from a hypersensitive reaction to filarial parasites. ?
Toxocariasis: An infection caused by larvae of roundworms, leading to organ damage. ?
Banocide Forte works by killing both the larval and adult forms of these parasites, thereby treating the infection and preventing its progression. It's essential to take this medication under the guidance of a healthcare professional, as the dosage and duration depend on the specific infection and individual patient factors. Common side effects may include headache, dizziness, nausea, and vomiting. If any severe reactions occur, it's crucial to seek medical attention promptly.
