Diethylcarbamazine

Weak inhibitor of ChE antihelminthic drug Diethylcarbamazine blocks host, and possibly parasite, enzymes (lipoxygenase) involved in arachidonic acid metabolism. Used primarily as the citrate in the treatment of filariasis, particularly infestations with Wucheria bancrofti or Loa loa.
