WHAT IS ANTI-PARASITIC THERAPY?

Anti-parasitic therapy is cancer therapy using drugs that are designed to treat parasite infections such as intestinal worms or malaria. For example: mebendazole, artemesinin/artesunate (Wormwood extracts) or albendazole.

HOW DOES ANTI-PARASITIC THERAPY WORK?

Since cancer cells behave very much like parasites (they grow, invade and spread through the body) they can be killed by drugs or natural medicines that are effective at killing parasites.

WHAT ARE THE COMMON SIDE EFFECTS OF ANTI-PARASITIC THERAPY?

Side effects are generally mild or non-existent. Depending on the dose and frequency of medication administration, some people may have nausea, fatigue an increase in liver enzymes or a reduction of blood cell counts. Based on experience, the side effects all appear to be reversible.

HOW FAST DOES ANTI-PARASITIC THERAPY WORK?

At Medicor anti-parasitic therapy is often used in combination with medicines that block the energy supply of cancer cells (such as DCA). Combination therapy with anti-parasitic medicines typically takes up to 3 months to evaluate, but we may see objective results in as little as 2 weeks after the start of therapy. We also combine anti-parasitics with drugs that block cell growth signalling pathways. This type of combination therapy can also typically take up to 3 months to evaluate.

HOW IS ANTI-PARASITIC THERAPY ADMINISTERED?

Anti-parasitic therapy is administered as daily oral capsules / pills / oral liquid, intermittent high dose oral capsules / pills / oral liquid, or intravenous infusion at the Medicor office twice per week.
