Single dose or short term courses of Zentel are indicated in the treatment of single or mixed infestations of intestinal and tissue parasites, in adults and children over 2 years of age. Clinical studies have shown Zentel to be effective in the treatment of infections caused by: Enterobius vermicularis (pinworm/threadworm), Ascaris lumbricoides (roundworm), Ancylostoma duodenale and Necator americanus (hookworms), Trichuris trichiura (whipworm), Strongyloides stercoralis, animal hookworm lavae causing cutaneous lava migrans, and the liver flukes Opisthorchis viverrini and Clonorchis sinensis. Zentel is also indicated for the treatment of Hymenolepis nana and Taenia spp. (tapeworm) infections, when other susceptible helminths species are present. Treatment courses should be extended to 3 days. (see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS)
