Treatment

There is now a trial that suggests combination treatment should be preferred, and is superior to mebendazole monotherapy: Knopp S, Mohammed KA, Speich B, Hattendorf J, Khamis IS, Khamis AN, Stothard JR, Rollinson D, Marti H, Utzinger J (2010). "Albendazole and mebendazole administered alone or in combination with ivermectin against Trichuris trichiura: a randomized controlled trial". Clin Infect Dis. 51 (12): 1420–8.
