Medicine for Giardia. Giardiasis is a helminthic disease that causes serious deterioration in health. Many people are sure that if Giardia infection has occurred at least once, it is almost impossible to get rid of them in the future. However, doctors say that it is necessary to treat giardiasis, and the effect of competent therapy will not be long in coming. There are drugs that quickly rid the human body of these parasites. As a rule, it is not difficult for a doctor to select the optimal drug for each patient. Treatment of Giardia usually takes place in several stages and is a rather complex and lengthy process.
The best tablets for lamblia
Along with Giardia, the patient may have a number of concomitant diseases, so treatment must be selected individually. This should be done by a doctor. But within the framework of the pharmacological group he has chosen, the patient can take into account reviews of certain tablets in order to give preference to the best.
McMirror
The first place in the ranking of the best tablets for Giardia is taken by the Italian Macmiror. Its active ingredient, nifuratel, belongs to the group of nitrofuran derivatives. Macmiror has a triple effect (antiprotozoal, antifungal and antibacterial). It has high efficiency and low toxicity.
Macmiror is used to treat various age groups. Take pills after meals. Adults - 2 tablets 2-3 times a day for 7 days. The dose for children is calculated based on body weight (15 mg/kg) and is taken 2 times a day for a week. After oral administration, the active substance is quickly absorbed from the digestive tract. It is completely excreted from the body by the kidneys.
Since giardiasis is more often encountered by young patients, reviews of the medicine are mainly left by parents. They note that Macmiror tablets are effective and easy to use (small and quite easy to divide if necessary). The medicine has a gentle effect on the body and practically does not cause side effects. If you adhere to the treatment regimen prescribed by the infectious disease specialist, the control test for the presence of Giardia will be negative.
Advantages
- antiparasitic, antifungal and antibacterial effects;
- low toxicity;
- allows you to get rid of Giardia in 1 course of treatment;
- well tolerated by adults and children.
Flaws
- may cause dyspeptic disorders and allergies.
Tiberal
Turkish Tiberal is in second place in the ranking. Its active ingredient is ornidazole (a derivative of 5-nitroimidazole), which disrupts the DNA structure of Giardia, preventing their further reproduction. Tiberal has high antimicrobial activity and is slowly eliminated from the body, therefore, for protozoal infections, a loading dose is used once or for a maximum of 2 days in a row.
Adults and children weighing more than 35 kg take Tiberal 3 tablets once before bedtime. For babies whose body weight has not reached 35 kg, dosages are selected individually (40 mg/kg) and taken once a day. The minimum treatment course is 1-2 days. Tiberal's rating is enhanced not only by its convenient administration regimen, but also by its low toxicity and good tolerability by patients.
In reviews, patients note that the sensation of a metallic taste when taking it is less pronounced than when using drugs based on metronidazole (a representative of this group of the old generation). The occurrence of side effects is also minimized. In the fight against Giardia, this is one of the most powerful drugs that allows you to achieve results with a short course of use.
Advantages
- effectively fights protozoal infections;
- short course of treatment (1-2 days);
- minimum side effects.
Flaws
- Contraindicated for children under 3 years of age.
Tinidazole-Acree
The Russian Tinidazole-Acri took third place in the ranking. It contains the active substance of the same name, which belongs to the same group as ornidazole. The mechanism of its action is due to inhibition of synthesis and damage to the DNA structure of pathogens. Tinidazole-Acri is rapidly absorbed, and its bioavailability is 100%, so the antiprotozoal effect occurs quickly.
Each tablet contains 500 mg of active ingredient. To get rid of Giardia, adults are prescribed 4 tablets (2 g of tinidazole) once. Children over 12 years old are calculated by body weight (50-75 mg/kg) and also take a single dose. Take pills before bed after a heavy dinner. The medicine causes dark coloration of urine.
Patients in the reviews note that they are satisfied with the price of Tinidazole-Acri and the effective fight against Giardia after a single use. But some of them complain of a bitter taste in the mouth and increased thirst. Since these sensations disappear the next day, taking into account the effectiveness, this shortcoming of the drug is forgiven.
Mechanism of transmission of giardiasis
Medicine for Giardia. The transmission mechanism of giardiasis is fecal-oral. Transmission factors - water, food, soil, hands contaminated with Giardia cysts; flies can be mechanical carriers of Giardia cysts.
There is a significant contamination of environmental objects with viable Giardia cysts. I.K. Padchenko and I.M. Lokteva found them in the water of open reservoirs (the Dnieper and Desna rivers) from 4 to 30 cysts per 1 m3, in the water of recreational zones - 2 - 10 cysts per 1 m3; in untreated wastewater - 359 -1091 cysts per 1 liter; in wastewater that has undergone complete biological treatment in small-sized treatment facilities such as compact factory-made units before being discharged into open water bodies, there are 10 - 35 cysts per 1 liter; in 1 kg of domestic wastewater sludge - 2020 - 3322 cysts.
The soil of preschool children's institutions in unsewered settlements in 11 - 22% of cases (of the number of samples studied) was contaminated with Giardia cysts; 1 kg contained from 14 to 112 Giardia cysts. Significant contamination of objects with Giardia cysts in preschool children's institutions was revealed. Thus, in flushes from door handles of playrooms and toilets, Giardia cysts were found in 6% of cases, in flushes from the hands of children in 3%, in flushes from potties - in 2%, in flushes from toys - in 0.2%.
Medicine for Giardia. The detection of Giardia cysts in washes from the hands of workers in catering departments and vegetable farms is indicated. Various researchers have identified Giardia cysts in the intestinal contents and on the body surface of household insects (flies and cockroaches).
Waterborne outbreaks of giardiasis have been described in which the main factor of transmission was drinking water that had not been treated and filtered at water treatment plants.
Trophozoites survive in feces soaked in saline solution for no more than 1 - 2 hours. Cysts have significant resistance. Depending on the ambient temperature, they remain viable in feces for 2-24 days, in water for 15-70 days, and in urine for 3-4 days. In the water of natural reservoirs (ponds, rivers, lakes) at a temperature of 2 - 22 ° C they survive for 1-3 months, in tap water - from 28 days to 3 months, in waste water - up to 130 days, in sea water in southern conditions Ukraine - in summer - 43 - 47 days, in winter - 62 days. In soil under natural conditions, depending on its type, degree of insolation and moisture content, their viability lasts from 1 to 75 days, in mines in the absence of insolation - up to 4-5 months. Heating to 60 - 70 ° C causes the death of cysts in 5-10 minutes, and when boiling - immediately.
Giardia cysts survive on the surface of apples for 6 hours, on bread - 6 - 12 hours, in cabbage brine - up to 24 hours, in dairy products at a temperature of 18 - 25 ° C - 12 days, and at 2 - 6 ° C - up to 112 days. On surfaces made of glass, metal, polymers, parchment at a temperature of 2 - 27 ° C and a relative air humidity of 40 - 100%, cysts remain viable from 2 hours to 18 days. On teleflies, the cysts remained viable for 3 hours, and in the intestinal contents for up to 48 hours.
In the USA, Great Britain, Sweden, Egypt, and Colombia, waterborne outbreaks of giardiasis have been described, in which the main factor of transmission was drinking water that had not been treated and filtered at water treatment plants. There are known cases of Giardia infection through the water of open reservoirs and swimming pools.
Water outbreaks can occur when surface runoff from soil, animal excrement, or untreated wastewater enters drinking water during accidents at wastewater treatment plants. During water outbreaks, a large number of people of all ages become infected; in 30% of infected people, giardiasis occurs manifestly.
In children's institutions, most often the main factor in the transmission of giardiasis is the dirty hands of children and, possibly, staff, objects and household items contaminated with cysts of the parasite (door handles, pots, toys, etc.).
In rural areas, a factor in the transmission of giardiasis may be soil fertilized with unneutralized feces and contaminated with human and animal excrement.
Food products can serve as a factor in the transmission of giardiasis when Giardia cysts come into contact with finished products from the hands of workers at food enterprises and catering units if they do not comply with the sanitary and hygienic regime; when consuming unwashed fresh vegetables, fruits, table greens, contaminated with feces of a Giardia-infested person or animal; contamination of products by flies and other household insects.
Tablets for the treatment of Giardia
Many people are sure that if Giardia infection has occurred at least once, it is almost impossible to get rid of them in the future. However, doctors say that it is necessary to treat giardiasis, and the effect of competent therapy will not be long in coming. There are drugs that quickly rid the human body of these parasites. As a rule, it is not difficult for a doctor to select the optimal drug for each patient.
The choice of drug is based on the criteria of maximum safety and the minimum set of side effects for each patient. Tinidazole is considered to be the most effective drug for the treatment of giardiasis. It must be taken orally.
Tinidazole dosage for adults: 2 g of the drug per day. The course of treatment is 1 day. That is, the patient should take 4 tablets of 500 mg per day.
The dosage for children is reduced. Its calculation: 50-60 mg/kg body weight. Children are treated for 3 days.
The drug is not prescribed to children under the age of 12 years, or in the presence of hypersensitivity to the components included in the drug.
For the treatment of children 3-7 years old, 1.5 tablets of Trichopolum are prescribed once a day. The course of treatment should be 5 days. To get rid of giardiasis in children 7-10 years old, prescribe 1 tablet 2 times a day. The course of treatment is also 5 days. Children over 10 years of age and adults are recommended to take 2 Trichopolum tablets, 2 times a day. The course of treatment is from 5 to 7 days.
Trichopolum is not prescribed for renal and liver failure, epilepsy, cancer, pathologies of the central nervous system, during lactation and pregnancy.
If the patient does not experience symptoms of giardiasis, but is a carrier of these protozoal microorganisms, then treatment with medications is contraindicated. Such patients are recommended to take herbal medicines and diuretics. In addition, the patient must adhere to a dietary diet.
When giardiasis is chronic, doctors recommend treatment in two stages. At the first stage, the patient receives therapy with drugs aimed at destroying Giardia. At the second stage, the patient is shown correction of immunity and normalization of intestinal function. For this, the patient is recommended to take probiotics and prebiotics, as well as immunomodulators.
The drug Grippferon can be used as an immunostimulant. It is used intranasally. For children under one year of age, 1 drop is instilled into each nasal passage. The number of instillations can reach 5 times a day. The daily dose is 5000 IU.
Hygiene in the treatment of giardiasis
It is based on the following rules:
- Timely hand washing after using the toilet and before eating.
- Neutralization of drinking water by boiling.
- Periodic cleaning of premises and change of underwear and bed linen.
- Washing raw fruits and vegetables before eating is important.
The above measures are carried out not only during the course of treatment, but constantly throughout life, since there is always a danger of infection with one or another parasitic or infectious disease transmitted through nutrition and household contact (household items, toys).
Indications for the use of tablets for giardiasis
Giardiasis is widespread throughout the world, as microorganisms are easily transmitted from one patient to another. This parasitic infestation is also called dirty hands disease. After entering the human body, most of the lamblia settles in the large and small intestines. It is there that the most favorable conditions exist for them, under which they can multiply quickly.
Children of preschool and primary school age who have a low level of hygiene skills are more susceptible to giardiasis. However, Giardia is found quite often in adults.
Indications for the use of tablets for giardiasis are the following conditions:
The patient's bowel movements become more frequent.
The stool becomes liquid and takes on a green tint.
There is mucus in the feces.
The patient suffers from nausea, which may be accompanied by vomiting.
Severe sharp pain occurs near the navel.
The person begins to lose weight.
Skin rashes appear that resemble a measles rash.
Tablets for the treatment of giardiasis are taken orally. The drug begins to be absorbed into the gastrointestinal tract immediately after entering the digestive organs. The active substance is distributed throughout the body through the bloodstream. The drugs penetrate the fetus through the placenta and are found in breast milk. Therefore, if the main active ingredient is toxic, then such medications are prohibited for use by pregnant and lactating women.
Drugs are eliminated through the kidneys and intestines, so traces of them can be found in urine and feces.
Giardiasis
Giardiasis is a protozoal invasion that occurs predominantly with damage to the small intestine and is accompanied in some patients by allergic and neurological symptoms
Giardiasis is a protozoal invasion that occurs primarily with damage to the small intestine and is accompanied in some patients by allergic and neurological symptoms.
Giardiasis is widespread among rats, mice, rabbits, dogs, cats and other animal species. The source of infection for humans is a person who secretes Giardia cysts, and possibly some types of
animals with which humans often come into contact (dogs, cattle, pigs, etc.). The leading role as a source of invasion belongs to humans. Mature invasive Giardia cysts are excreted in feces. Cyst discharge during giardiasis is intermittent and wave-like and begins 9–22 days after infection. The number of viable cysts excreted in feces can reach 23 million per 1 g, and on average it is 1.8 million per 1 g. In experiments on volunteers, it was established that the entry of 1 to 10 Giardia cysts into the human digestive tract can lead to the development of invasion in 10 - 30% of people.
Using medications for Giardia during pregnancy
Almost all drugs for the treatment of giardiasis are highly toxic. Therefore, most often they are not prescribed for the treatment of pregnant women and infants. In addition, many of the medicinal antiprotozoal drugs are prohibited for use during lactation. Some of them have strict age restrictions.
Thus, Trichopolum is not prescribed in the first trimester of pregnancy. In the future, the use of the drug is possible only after receiving medical advice. A drug such as Macmiror can be taken by a woman during pregnancy and lactation. It is often prescribed to treat giardiasis in children.
Drugs for the treatment of giardiasis in children
Treatment of Giardia in children is practically no different. Of course, medical specialists are trying to select medications that are characterized by lower toxicity in order to minimize the likelihood of adverse reactions. Also, for treating a child, the dosage is always less - it depends on the specific age and body weight.
Drugs for the treatment of giardiasis in children should be recommended by a doctor after laboratory tests. Independent use of this or that drug, even the best one according to reviews, can cause serious and sometimes irreparable harm to a fragile body.
Pirantel
The antiparasitic drug Pyrantel is available in tablet form and suspension; the active component - Pyrantel - has anthelmintic activity. The drug has low toxicity, so it is often prescribed in childhood. Contraindications include age under six months, hypersensitivity to the medication as a whole or additional components, severe impairment of liver function.
Young children are most often prescribed a suspension. A child from six months to two years is given 5 ml of syrup per 10 kg of weight, and older children weighing up to 75 kg - 30 ml per day. For Giardia, these tablets are recommended for children over 6 years of age. The dose for patients 6-12 years old is 500 mg, over 12 years of age – 750 mg.
Side effects from use:
- Headaches, sleep disturbances, dizziness;
- Disorders of the digestive tract;
- Painful sensations in the abdominal area;
- Allergic reaction (rash, hives);
- Increased concentration of liver enzymes.
Nifuratel
Treatment with Nifuratel for Giardia in children gives good results. The drug has antifungal, antibacterial and antiprotozoal effects. It has only one contraindication – an allergic reaction to the active ingredient.
Can be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding, but with caution and only on the recommendation of a medical specialist.
The dosage for an adult varies from 600 to 1200 mg per day. The dose for a child is calculated as follows: 10-30 mg per kg of body weight. The duration of the course of treatment is determined individually depending on the number of parasites in the body.
The drug for Giardia for children can cause side effects:
- Bitter taste in the mouth, attacks of nausea, diarrhea;
- Allergic manifestations (skin rashes, hyperemia).
If pronounced negative effects develop, the course must be interrupted and a safe analogue for the child is prescribed.
Tiberal
For the treatment of Giardia in children, the drug Tiberal is often recommended. The product is available in tablet form, one tablet contains 0.5 g of ornidazole and has antiprotozoal and antibacterial effects.
For a child and an adult infected with Giardia, the dosage is 1500 mg per application (three tablets), if the patient's weight is more than 35 kg. If body weight is less than 35 g, then the dose is calculated as follows: 40 mg per kilogram of weight - taken once or twice. The duration of treatment is 1-2 days.
- Diseases of the hematopoietic system;
- Pathologies of the central nervous system, for example, epilepsy;
- Organic intolerance;
- First trimester of pregnancy, lactation;
- Hematological abnormalities.
Sometimes taking it can lead to side effects. Patients complain of headache, dizziness, and dysfunction of the gastrointestinal tract. Rarely, convulsions, loss of coordination of movements and other central nervous system disorders occur.
Tinidazole
The main active ingredient is the same name of the drug. One tablet contains 500 mg of the active ingredient. As auxiliary components, the annotation indicates microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate, starch and other ingredients that do not have biological activity.
Directions for use for giardiasis:
- The dose is calculated depending on weight - 50 mg per kg of body weight. Admission is carried out once;
- In the absence of a positive therapeutic result, treatment is repeated in a similar dosage.
The drug has certain contraindications: pathologies of the central nervous system of an organic nature, hypersensitivity to Tinidazole, lactation, pregnancy.
All medications for giardiasis are prescribed only after laboratory tests. The dose, frequency of use and duration of treatment are determined individually. Upon completion of therapy, tests must be taken again.
Contraindications to the use of tablets for giardiasis
Contraindications to the use of antiprotozoal drugs include the following:
The first trimester of pregnancy, and for some drugs the entire period of gestation.
Liver failure and liver diseases.
There is a list of drugs that help effectively treat giardiasis in adults. Infection with parasites in the body in most cases occurs in children, but the disease can sometimes affect older people. This gives the patient a lot of unpleasant sensations, but if you follow the treatment regimen, you can get rid of them.
Diet for the treatment of giardiasis
- When treating giardiasis, limit the use of hard-to-digest fatty, fried, salted, peppered dishes of meat origin
dairy – kefir, cottage cheese, sour cream;
- eating plant foods rich in vitamins and minerals - tomatoes, cabbage, onions, potatoes, beets and others;
- Recommended fruits include apples, pears, citrus fruits, berries and others.
Limit the use of hard-to-digest fatty, fried, salted, peppered dishes of meat origin. This is especially true for fatty pork and lard. When prescribing a diet for giardiasis, the degree of disruption of the gastrointestinal tract is taken into account.
- In the acute period, food intake is prescribed in small portions, but the number of doses is increased. All food is served pureed and well prepared.
- During the chronic course of the disease, the diet includes the same recommendations described above, but with some allowance, with the addition of more meat and other foods containing an increased amount of animal protein (eggs, cheeses).
How to treat Giardia in adults
This disease has been well studied by doctors, which makes it possible for each patient to be offered effective treatment for Giardia in adults. Two treatment options are used. In the first case, when an acute form of the disease is diagnosed, tablets for Giardia in adults are used in combination with Trichopolum (Metronidazole), Pyrantel or similar antiparasitic drugs.
In the chronic presence of Giardia in adults, a classic three-stage treatment option is used. This method is well suited to avoid intoxication and allergic complications after taking potent anti-parasite tablets. It is based on the principle of gradually preparing a person for therapy and preventing relapses after the course. The treatment regimen is as follows:
- The first stage consists of a set of measures aimed at normalizing enzyme metabolism and strengthening the immune system.
- The second stage includes antiparasitic therapy using potent drugs.
- At the last stage, the results are consolidated, relapses are prevented, and the immune system is maintained in high tone.
Recovery phase
The third stage of therapy is necessary to eliminate the consequences of the disease. The drugs at this stage are vitamins, biologically active additives (BAS) (tanaxol and others), as well as means for restoring intestinal microflora (pro- and prebiotics).
Tanaxol is available in granule form. This is a drug whose components are herbs. Tanaxol contains extracts of yarrow, tansy, wormwood, and Solyanka. Thanks to this composition, the medicine has an anti-inflammatory, choleretic, hepatoprotective effect, normalizes the secretory function of the stomach and enhances the effect of the use of antiparasitic drugs.
Tanaxol is non-toxic, but may cause allergies. Not recommended for individual intolerance and pregnancy. For giardiasis, tanaxol is prescribed according to the following regimen: 1 teaspoon per 100 ml of warm water, drink three times a day for a week.
Tanaxol is used as an antigiardiasis, choleretic, anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, mild laxative
The recovery stage also involves replenishing vitamins and minerals (with giardiasis, absorption in the intestine is often impaired). Tanaxol helps eliminate the effects of parasites on internal organs, but is unable to satisfy the body's needs for the substances it needs. Vitamin and mineral complexes, for example, Bion 3, cope with this task.
This drug, in addition to the elements necessary for the patient’s body, also contains bifidobacteria and lactobacilli, being also a probiotic. It speeds up the healing process, stimulates the immune system, and normalizes intestinal microflora. Available in tablet form. The medicine must be taken with food for at least 1 month. For one dose – 1 tablet. Bion 3 can cause allergic reactions, so if there are obvious signs of intolerance, the drug should be discontinued.
Usually, the prescription of tanaxol and bion 3 (or similar drugs) is sufficient for full rehabilitation after suffering from giardiasis. However, with severe dysbiosis, the use of pro- and prebiotics may be required. These groups of drugs differ from each other in composition and mechanism of action.
Probiotics (Linex capsules; solution, suspension or powder bifidumbacterin) contain live microorganisms (bifidobacteria and lactobacilli), which, multiplying in the intestines, displace pathogenic flora. These drugs can be used in childhood and pregnancy. The only contraindication is hypersensitivity. Prescribed: Bifidumbacterin 2 sachets, Linex 2 capsules with meals.
Probiotics are a class of microorganisms and substances of microbial and other origin.
Prebiotics contain substances that stimulate the growth of the colon's own microflora. Lactofiltrum tablets also have an immunostimulating and adsorbing effect. May cause allergies and digestive disorders. Not recommended for intestinal motility disorders (atony), acute surgical diseases (gastrointestinal bleeding, obstruction), as well as for individual intolerance. During pregnancy, it should be used with caution. Since lactofiltrum is a sorbent, it is not taken together with other medications. The daily dose for adults is 6-9 tablets.
The best drugs for lamblia in tablets
Only a doctor can prescribe the most effective medicine for Giardia in adults after examining the patient. The complex itself includes several groups of medications that must be taken strictly according to the protocol prescribed by a specialist. The main groups include the following well-known, proven means:
- Ornidazole (Tiberal). Included in the list of the most popular tablets for giardiasis. It is often prescribed in the presence of obvious atopic symptoms of dermatosis in addition to the presence of Giardia.
- Metronidazole (Trichopol). A very popular option for tablets in the treatment of this disease and other “stomach” bacteria.
- Tinidazole, Albendazole (Nemozol). It has a wide spectrum of action, so it is prescribed to be taken if there are other helminths in the body.
This is the second category of drugs that cope with giardiasis, accompanied by pathology of the urinary tract (cystitis, pyelonephritis, yeast infection). These include the following drugs:
- McMiror. The medication is used for adults and children and belongs to the group of safe drugs. The range of treatment has been expanded due to its inclusion in the thioether group and has a good antiprotozoal and antimicrobial effect.
- Furazolidone. The medication is suitable for any age, taken before meals. The dosage is calculated based on the patient’s weight (for each kg of weight, 10 mg of medication).
Group of acridine-containing drugs:
- Mepacrine. The product is highly toxic and is suitable only for adults; it is not recommended for children.
- Quinacrine. Also a toxic drug.
Diagnosis of giardiasis
Medicine for Giardia. Due to the inherent diversity of the disease, noted in its clinical manifestations, and also due to the absence of characteristic pathognomonic symptoms, mandatory laboratory confirmation of the corresponding diagnosis is necessary. The material for research is feces, as well as duodenal contents.
Duodenal contents make it possible to identify Giardia trophozoites, feces in a formed form - cysts, semi-formed and liquid feces determine both cysts and trophozoites.
Effective drugs for the treatment of giardiasis during pregnancy
All drugs have a clear list of contraindications. The diagram on how to treat giardiasis in adults states that most tablets are not suitable for nursing mothers or pregnant women. The good effectiveness of medications is associated with high toxicity, and the excellent absorption of drugs by the intestines makes them strictly prohibited for children and girls during lactation and childbearing. The doctor can selectively prescribe one or another drug in a given situation.
For example, Metronidazole is allowed for use during pregnancy only after the first trimester, when the process of formation of organs and basic systems in the baby is completed (after 12 weeks). You should not start taking it on your own; a doctor should prescribe the drug only if there is an urgent need after an examination. The drug Macmiror has a much milder effect; it is often prescribed during pregnancy and small children.
Development of giardiasis
Medicine for Giardia. When leishmania enters the human gastrointestinal tract, reaching the small intestine, they begin to actively multiply. Having special suction cups in its arsenal, it attaches to the mucous membrane of the digestive tract, on its villi. This has a detrimental effect on parietal digestion, fat absorption, and metabolism in general. Too active proliferation of parasites can cause irritation of the mucous membrane.
What is manifested by the appearance of pain in the navel or in the upper abdomen and various dyspeptic disorders - nausea, vomiting, bloating, rumbling; There may be constipation, alternating with loose stools; stools may be yellow and mixed with mucus. Symptoms of the disease can appear very clearly, but they can also be completely absent.
There are simply asymptomatic carriers. After Giardia from the small intestine enters the large intestine, they begin to form cysts and themselves die, since the conditions here are too acidic for their life.
Leishmania itself does not survive in the external environment, but its cysts can remain pathogenic for up to 3 weeks in soil and 5 weeks in water. Giardiasis mainly affects children 1-4 years old. In them, it manifests itself as pain in the abdomen, bloating, loose and frequent foamy stools that are green in color, and sometimes there is an admixture of mucus. Most often they get sick after suffering from various diseases.
How to choose tablets for lamblia in adults
The prescription and selection of tablets for Giardia in adults should be carried out exclusively by a specialist after all the necessary diagnostic procedures. The correct dosage is calculated based on the phase of the disease, age and weight of the patient. Each tablet has contraindications, so it is important to take into account the individual characteristics of giardiasis in patients. Other factors also influence the choice of medications, for example:
- In the presence of chronic gastrointestinal diseases, drugs from the nitrofuran group are prescribed.
- For exacerbations caused by Helicobacter pylori, Metronidazole is often prescribed. This medication is used for gastritis.
- For exacerbations that are associated with the action of mushrooms, Intetrix will be effective.
Prices for Giardia tablets for adults
Most drugs of this type are inexpensive and can be ordered or purchased in an online store or your nearest pharmacy. The cost will vary depending on the dosage and country of manufacture. Average prices for popular tablets are as follows:
- McMiror. Price – from 900 rubles;
- Vermox. Price – from 170 rubles;
- Trichopolum. Price – from 90 rubles;
- Metronidazole. Price – from 70 rubles;
- Nemozol. Price for 1 tablet – from 170 rub.

Feedback on results after treatment
Kirill, 28 years old A month ago I started feeling nauseous in the morning, and it felt especially bad after eating sweets. I had tests done at the clinic and they diagnosed me with parasites. I immediately asked them about how to treat Giardia in adults and they recommended that I drink Vermox 2 times a day, a special anthelmintic tea. The product is expensive, but effective. After the course of treatment there was no relapse and all symptoms disappeared.
Elena, 27 years old Somehow managed to pick up parasites. When I saw how many tablets for Giardia in adults were offered, I was immediately a little confused. Vermox was recommended, but it turned out to be the most expensive. I purchased Nemozol, the doctor prescribed a daily dosage of 500 mg per day. The course lasted two months, after which I did an analysis and no parasites were found.
Victor, 33 years old, the doctor prescribed me the medication Tiberal. Maybe this is my personal reaction, but because of him I constantly wanted to sleep and had trouble thinking clearly. The tablets had a very bright, pronounced sedative effect. We talked to the doctor, and he suggested switching to Trichopolum. I was pleased with the low cost of the product and the lack of side effects. The course of treatment lasted almost 2 months.
