A Comprehensive Study on Anthemintic Activity of Some Herbal Plants and Its Essential Oil

Abstract

It is an interesting opportunity to repurpose the medication by using it in conjunction with other treatments that function in a variety of different ways in order to combat helminthic infections and the diseases they cause. In this article, we emphasised how the usage of antioxidants, either alone or in conjunction with anthelmintic drugs, might reduce the chance of developing infection-related malignancies as well as tissue damage and infection-related issues. As a result, antioxidants have the potential to be utilised as a supportive strategy throughout the treatment process in order to reduce the possibility of undesirable effects. This results in a more complex immune interplay that has not yet been investigated. Deworming and supplementing the diet with iron-rich nutrients have been suggested as treatments for patients with podoconiosis who live in resource-poor conditions. Additionally, it is believed that hookworm infection may aid to decrease inflammatory reactions. However, due to the unmistakable connection that exists between a non-infectious and an infectious disease, it is possible for a situation to arise in which the treatment of one disease condition during a co-infection either makes the other disease condition worse or is mitigated by the impairment brought on by the other disease condition. We provide more detail on the immunopathogenesis of podoconiosis and investigate the potential immunological dynamics of hookworm co-infection in the immunopathology of podoconiosis with the goal of better managing the disease and eventually eliminating it. This work is being done in the context of the immunopathology of podoconiosis.
