I was recently prescribed Praziquantel 600mg Tablets to treat a tapeworm infection. The medication works by paralyzing the worms, allowing your body to expel them. I've heard it's effective for schistosomiasis too. I've been taking it for a week now, and while I haven't experienced any major side effects, I'm keeping an eye out for any signs of an allergic reaction or abnormal heartbeat. The doctor warned me about these serious side effects, so I'm being cautious. I wanted to share my experience and see if others have had similar outcomes. Has anyone else taken Praziquantel and dealt with any side effects? How long did it take for you to feel better?
