Triclabendazole is an anthelmintic indicated for treatment of fascioliasis (liver fluke). It is also being investigated in the treatment of human paragonimiasis (lung fluke). The mechanism by which triclabendazole exhibits its effect against Fasciola species is not fully understood. Studies in vitro and/or in infected animals suggest that triclabendazole and its active metabolites (sulfoxide and sulfone) are absorbed by the outer body covering of the immature and mature worms. This absorption leads to a decrease of the resting membrane potential and inhibition of tubulin function as well as protein and enzyme synthesis. These metabolic disturbances are associated with inhibition of motility and disruption of the surface, as well as ultrastructure that includes inhibition of spermatogenesis and vitelline cells.
