Treatment of Experimental Trichinosis in Mice with Piperazine Hydrochloride1

K. F. Chan AND H. W. Brown
School of Public Health, College of Physicians & Surgeons, Columbia University

Piperazine hydrochloride in daily doses of 1,500 mg/kg. is effective against experimental trichinosis in mice. From 76 to 92 per cent of the adult worms are removed by a 7-day course of the drug. It is suggested that daily doses of 2 to 3 grams of piperazine citrate be tried in human cases of trichinosis.


1 Acknowledgment is made to the Wellcome Research Laboratories (U.S.A.) for furnishing the piperazine hydrochloride used in this study and to Miss Sydell Kopilof for her valuable technical assistance.
