Oil of Gardenia lucida (Rubiaceae), Cyperusrotundus (Cyperaceae), Inula racemosa (Compositae), Psitacia integrrima (Anacardiaceae), Litsea chinensis (Lauraceae) and Randia dumetorum (Rubiaceae) also showed good effects on tapeworms (Tandon et al., 2011). oil plants, such as Artemisia pallens (Compositae), Eupatorium triplinerve (Compositae), Artabotrys odoratissimus (Annonanceae), Capillipedium foetidum (Poaceae) and the grass of Cymbopogon martini (Poaceae) showed a strong impact on Ascaris and T. solium (Nakhare and Garg, 1991)

Community Practices

In 1974, thirty-two patients with taeniasis were treated successfully with mixture of boiled areca nuts and pumpkin seeds in Taiwan (Chung and Ko, 1976). Outcome of wormicidal plant extracts of Melia azedarach Linn. (Meliaceae) was better than piperazine phosphate on treatment of T. solium (Szewczuk et al., 2003).

Tapeworm Infestation in Calf.

Disease Description
|
The tapeworm is a long thin, flat worm (hence its name) which attaches by a sucker and/or hooks in the head to the intestine of the host. The worm has a thin neck and the rest of the body consists of detachable body segments. These contain male and female reproductive organs and as the segments mature and are pushed further down the body by the development of new young segments at the neck, many thousands of eggs are formed in each segment. Some tapeworms (eg Taenia saginata) have motile segments, which can crawl out the anus, dropping to the ground and then crawl around the ground, expelling eggs over an area. Others (eg Taenia solium) are non-motile, they are passed in the dung and remain there until they dry out, when the eggs are released.
