Although fish tapeworm infections in arctic and subarctic residents are often attributed to the cestode Diphyllobothrium latum, other Diphyllobothrium species are frequently responsible. D. dendriticum, for example, occurs throughout the circumpolar area at high latitudes beyond the range of D.

Paromomycin sulfate (aminosidine) at a single dose of 32 to 53 mg/kg was orally given to 24 cases with proven diphyllobothriasis. Evaluation of efficacy of the drug was based on stool examination for the eggs after 3--4 weeks of treatment. The cure rate was obtained as 96% (23/24), and 30 worms were
Recently, it has been reported that paromomycin sulfate has marked anthelmintic efficacy against tapeworm infections in man. In the present study this drug was used in the treatment of 14 cases of diphyllobothriasis latum and 1 case of taeniasis saginata. Also, the actions of paromomycin sulfate on
