Chemotherapy and chemoprophylaxis of Angiostrongylus malaysiensis infection in rats with levamisole and mebendazole.

S Ambu, B H Kwa, J W Mak, K I Singh

The chemoprophylactic and chemotherapeutic effects of levamisole and mebendazole on Angiostrongylus malaysiensis infection in rats were studied. Both drugs were ineffective in preventing infection while the post-infection treatment showed 100% efficacy. Furthermore, levamisole and mebendazole when given in combination appeared to have an antagonistic effect.
