Anthelmintic Activity: Flubendazole works by interfering with the metabolism of parasitic worms, leading to their immobilization and death. It is effective against a broad spectrum of helminths, including nematodes (roundworms), cestodes (tapeworms), and trematodes (flukes).
Treatment of Intestinal Worm Infections: Flubendazole is commonly used to treat intestinal worm infections, including infections caused by roundworms (such as Ascaris lumbricoides), whipworms (Trichuris trichiura), and hookworms (Ancylostoma duodenale, Necator americanus). It may also be effective against certain types of tapeworm infections.
Eradication of Tissue Worms: Flubendazole may also be used to treat tissue-invasive helminth infections caused by parasites such as Strongyloides stercoralis and Trichinella spiralis. These parasites can infect various tissues and organs in the body, leading to potentially severe manifestations.
Broad-Spectrum Action: Flubendazole's broad spectrum of activity makes it a versatile treatment option for various helminthic infections, especially in regions where multiple parasitic worm species are endemic.
Route of Administration: Flubendazole is typically administered orally in the form of tablets or suspensions. The dosage and duration of treatment may vary depending on the type and severity of the parasitic infection, as well as the patient's age and weight.
Adverse Effects: Common side effects of flubendazole may include gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. These side effects are usually mild and transient. Rare but serious adverse effects may include allergic reactions, liver toxicity, and neurological symptoms.
Contraindications and Precautions: Flubendazole should be used with caution in individuals with liver disease or a history of hypersensitivity reactions to anthelmintic medications. It may not be suitable for use during pregnancy or lactation, and its safety in pediatric populations has not been well established.
Drug Interactions: Flubendazole may interact with certain medications, including drugs that induce or inhibit liver enzymes involved in its metabolism. It is important to inform healthcare providers about all medications, supplements, and herbal products being taken to avoid potential drug interactions.
Monitoring and Follow-Up: Patients receiving treatment with flubendazole should be monitored for the resolution of symptoms and the eradication of parasitic infections. Follow-up testing, such as stool examinations, may be recommended to confirm the effectiveness of treatment and ensure complete parasite clearance.
Public Health Impact: Flubendazole plays a crucial role in the control and prevention of parasitic worm infections, particularly in resource-limited settings where these infections are endemic. Mass drug administration programs may be implemented to reduce the burden of helminthic diseases in affected populations.
Rank | Probiotic | Impact |

We extend modifiers to include items that changes the parent and child taxa. I.e. for a species, that would be the genus that is belongs to and the strains in the species.
A higher number indicates impact on more bacteria associated with the condition and confidence on the impact.
We have X bacteria high and Y low reported. We find that the modifier reduces some and increases other of these two groups. We just tally: X|reduces + Y|Increase = Positive X|increases + Y|decrease = Negative.
Benefit Ratio:
Numbers above 0 have increasing positive effect.
Numbers below 0 have increasing negative effect.
