DESCRIPTION
Diethylcarbamazine citrate is an orally active anthropoidal compound. Diethylcarbamazine citrate is an inhibitor of arachidonic acid metabolism of filaria microfilaria. Diethylcarbamazine citrate has anti-inflammatory and antiparasitic activity[1][2][3].
PHARMACODYNAMICS
Diethylcarbamazine is an anthelmintic drug that does not resemble other antiparasitic compounds. It is a synthetic organic compound which is highly specific for several parasites and does not contain any toxic metallic elements.
INDICATION
Used for the treatment of certain filarial diseases, including tropical pulmonary eosinophilia, loiasis, and lymphatic filariasis caused by infection with Wuchereria bancrofti, Brugia malayi, or Brugia timori.
DESCRIPTION
Diethylcarbamazine is a microfilaricidal agent used originally in onchocerciasis and lymphatic filiariasis study[1].
DESCRIPTION
Diethylcarbamazine citrate (Caritrol) is an anthelmintic used primarily as the citrate in the treatment of filariasis, particular infestations with Wucheria bancrofti or Loa loa. It is an inhibitor of arachidonic acid metabolism in filarial microfilaria.

DESCRIPTION
Diethylcarbamazine is an anthelmintic used primarily as the citrate in the treatment of filariasis, particularly infestations with Wucheria bancrofti or Loa loa. The mechanism of action of diethylcarbamazine is thought to involve sensitizing the microfilariae to phagocytosis.
