Alternative Treatments for Strongyloides
This module covers alternative treatments for Strongyloides infection when ivermectin is not available or contraindicated. Zambian medical students will learn about albendazole and thiabendazole, their dosing, efficacy, and side effect profiles. Understanding these alternatives is important for clinical practice in resource-limited settings and for managing patients who cannot tolerate first-line therapy. This knowledge demonstrates comprehensive therapeutic understanding and is included in advanced parasitology and tropical medicine courses at Zambian universities.
