Several medications can effectively kill parasites in the stomach and intestines. These medications fall into different classes and work through various mechanisms to eradicate parasitic infections. Some common drugs used to kill parasites in the stomach include:
- Anthelmintics: These are anti-parasitic drugs specifically designed to target and eliminate worms (helminths) such as roundworms, tapeworms, and flukes. Examples include albendazole, mebendazole, praziquantel, and Niclosamide 500 mg.
- Antiprotozoal agents: These drugs target protozoa, single-celled parasites that can cause diseases like giardiasis, amoebiasis, and cryptosporidiosis. Medications like metronidazole, tinidazole, Nitazoxanide 500 mg, and chloroquine are commonly used to treat protozoal infections.
- Antibiotics: In some cases, bacterial infections like H. pylori can lead to stomach problems and may require antibiotics such as clarithromycin, amoxicillin, and metronidazole for treatment.
These medications work by disrupting the parasites' life cycle, damaging their cellular structures, or interfering with their metabolism, ultimately leading to their death and clearance from the gastrointestinal tract.
