Abstract
Diethylcarbamazine is shown to be quite effective in the treatment of ascariasis and quite ineffective in cases of ancylostomiasis. Hexylresorcinal is equally as effective as diethylcarbamazine, is fully as safe, is much cheaper, and can be administered as a single-dose treatment rather than spaced out over a consider-able length of time.Keywords
