| Summary | V prispevku je opisano zdravljenje najpomembnejših parazitarnih bolezni, ki jih lahko srečamo pri vsakodnevnem delu. Na kratko je opisana epidemiologija in klinična slika okužb s pri nas najpogostejšimi zajedalci in sicer s črevesnimi praživalmi, črevesnimi in tkivnimi nematodi in trakuljami ter njihova pogostnost pri nas. Predstavljena so priporočila, ki trenutno veljajo za zdravljenje teh bolezni. Posebej je predstavljena farmakokinetika, uporaba in stranski učinki pri nas registriranih protiparazitnih zdravil (mebendazol, albendazol in metronidazol) ter njihovi odmerki tako pri odraslih kot pri otrocih. Na kratko pa so opisana tudi nekatera pomembnejša protiparazitna zdravila, ki pri nas niso registrirana. | |
