Parasites are organisms that obtain food and shelter from another living being, known as the host, without benefiting the host. Often, they harm the host because they feed on nutrients.
Parasites can range from tiny unicellular organisms (protozoa) to worms visible to the human eye that cause illnesses. Essentially, there are a variety of parasitic diseases that are known to be transferable either to animals, plants, or human beings.
Some common parasitic illnesses in the United States include giardia infections, toxoplasmosis, babesiosis, and cryptosporidiosis. You can get these parasitic diseases through contaminated food or water, animals, sexual contact, or insect bites.

Illnesses arising from parasites are an emerging public health problem in the United States. Thanks to modern trends of globalization and transportation, whether in the form of travel, immigration, or products, the spread of parasitic diseases has been on the rise across the world.
However, certain types of parasites are more common in the United States than in other parts of the world. So medication varies greatly, depending on the type of parasites present. The types of medication used to treat parasites in the U.S. include:
Antiprotozoal medications are used to treat protozoan illnesses, which are sexually transmitted diseases caused by single-celled organisms. These medicines act at various phases of the development of protozoa to eliminate an infection.
Antiprotozoal drugs target protozoa, which are single-celled organisms. These medications typically interfere with the protozoa’s metabolic process or genetic material. For instance:
Anthelmintic refers to a group of drugs that are used to get rid of parasitic worms, also called helminths. These drugs act either by paralyzing or eliminating these worms and then natural bodily processes take over and expel the worms. Some popular anthelmintic medications are albendazole and mebendazole.
Malaria prophylaxis prevents or treats malaria, an illness caused by parasites known as plasmodium that is spread by infected mosquitoes. These drugs are essential in the management of acute malaria as well as in the prophylaxis of malaria in travelers and residents of malaria-endemic regions.
For the most part, antimalarial drugs disrupt the replication of the parasite. For instance:
Antiparasitic drugs are so expensive in the USA, making it challenging for many Americans to adequately manage their ailments. Some reasons for the expensive cost of antiparasitic drugs include:
Due to the extreme rarity of parasitic illnesses in the U.S., there’s a smaller market that is not able to take advantage of the economies of scale associated with more often used drugs. As manufacturers aim to recoup their expenditures from a predetermined number of sales, this low demand may contribute to already supported excessive costs.
Certain drugs, such as miltefosine continue to be expensive because of incentive schemes such as the Neglected Tropical Disease (NTD) priority review voucher (PRV) program. While these initiatives aim to promote the development of medication for uncommon illnesses, they could also lead to exorbitant prices in the market. The costs can be increased if the PRV is transferred or sold even before the drug is advertised.
Due to the difficulty in producing generic equivalents for many antiparasitic medications, drugs like albendazole remain costly. Administrative roadblocks, patent prosecution, and market exclusivity periods are some of the barriers that prevent less costly generics from accessing the market, even after initial licenses have expired.

Antiparasitic medications are used to treat infections caused by parasites such as protozoa, ectoparasites, and helminths.
These medications target the metabolism, structure, or reproduction of the parasite to either kill it or slow down its growth.
Side effects vary by drug but can include; nausea, vomiting, and stomach pain. Always ask your healthcare provider for specific information.
Some of the typical antiparasitic medications include miltefosine, ivermectin, albendazole, and mebendazole.
Ideally, antiparasitic medication starts to work immediately. However, it may take days to eliminate all the worms. Some medication like mebendazole only kills the worms and not the eggs, so it’s advisable to repeat the dose after 2 weeks to prevent reinfection.
Yes. Most antiparasitic drugs have alternatives that cost significantly less. However, in the U.S., commercial and regulatory constraints can restrict access to these substitutes.
These drugs can be injected, administered topically, or taken orally, depending on the kind of infection and medication.
Our clinical team meticulously reviews every order. This ensures that the dosage, frequency, and medication strength align perfectly with the original intent of your healthcare provider.
