Dipylidium Caninum (Dog Tapeworm)Dipylidium Caninum (Dog Tapeworm) – General InformationDipylidium Caninum (Dog Tapeworm) is a type of parasite which lives inside the small intestine of the dog or cat. It is generally attached by the intestine walls through a structure also known as rostellum, which is similar to a hat with several hooks on it. The head of the Dipylidium Caninum (Dog Tapeworm) parasite has six to seven rows of teeth, which are helpful in hooking to the intestinal wall. In most of the cases, the adult parasite has six to ten inches, with many small segments. The parasite is also known as cucumber tapeworm or double pore tapeworm, and is classified as a cyclophyllid cestode. The parasite is transmitted through fleas and it usually affects pet owners, especially young patients. Inside the small fleas, little eggs develop. They hatch, forming an oncosphere larva. This kind of larva moves through the wall of the intestine, and finally gets in a cavity where it may develop into a cystercercoid larva (thus infecting the host). When the young patients are affected, the Dipylidiasis disease develops, and leads to the appearance of symptoms such as diarrhea and restlessness. This disease caused by the Dipylidium Caninum (Dog Tapeworm) parasite has been encountered in Africa, Argentina, Australia, China, Europe, Guatemala, India, Japan, Philippines, and the United States, in which children within six months of age have been infected. The infection is usually treated with medicines such as Niclosamide and Praziquantel, and the best way to prevent the appearance of the infection is to kill the fleas and treat the infected dog.Dipylidium Caninum (Dog Tapeworm) – SymptomsThe incubation period of the Dipylidium Caninum (Dog Tapeworm) parasite can take from ten to twenty days, in which the larva will mature inside the small intestine. After the parasite maturates, it is active for almost a year. In some cases, the signs and symptoms of the infection caused by the Dipylidium Caninum (Dog Tapeworm) parasite, are considered mild and appear in the late stages of the disease. In almost all the cases, the infection is asymptomatic. But when the patient starts to experience symptoms of the disorder, the parasite burden increases, and they progress in intensity. Usually, the signs and symptoms of the infection appear as intestinal deficiencies such as abdominal pain, loss of appetite, pruritus, perianal itch and rashes caused by an allergic reaction to the tapeworm. There are some severe cases in which the parasite can even lead to the appearance of intestinal obstruction. Due to the fact that Dipylidium Caninum (Dog Tapeworm) does not multiply inside the intestine, the severity of the symptoms depends on the number of larva that have been ingested. Also considered a symptom of the parasite infection, the patient’s stool can visibly contain tapeworms in the form of several small white grains. These grains usually start to move around, becoming a sort of point on the end. To prevent the appearance of this kind of infection, it is recommended to stay away from dogs which have recently been outside, drank from the toilet, or licked themselves. If the patient experiences one of the symptoms above, he must seek medical support as soon as possible.Dipylidium Caninum (Dog Tapeworm) – TreatmentTo determine exact the diagnosis of the infection caused by the Dipylidium Caninum (Dog Tapeworm) parasite, a series of tests need to be done. The main procedure used to identify the parasite is by examining the stool. Under a microscope, the doctor can see if there are any eggs that present a lid. They are usually very numerous and their presence is demonstrated without concentration techniques. In theory, the infection with the Dipylidium Caninum (Dog Tapeworm) parasite is caused, as in dogs and cats, by swallowing the infected flea. In most of the cases, the doctor recommends a low protein and lactose free diet, which is usually applied until the signs and symptoms (abdominal pain and diarrhea) disappear. There are also cases in which the infection caused by Dipylidium Caninum (Dog Tapeworm) parasite can be treated without any specific dietary recommendations. There are certain medicines that are used by the doctors to treat the disease and can include Niclosamide or Nicloside, Praziquantel or Biltricide and Paromomycin. Praziquantel is an anthelminitic, which is used by the specialists to increase the cell membrane permeability in the parasites. It then leads to a lack of intracellular calcium, massive contractions and, eventually, to the paralysis of musculature. This medicine is usually administered in tablets, which are well absorbed by the gastro intestinal tract. The medicine is generally taken in five to ten mg doses per day. The drug is contraindicated if the patient suffers from ocular cytercercosis or he has hypersensitivity. The effect of the medicine can be reduced by the presence of hydantoins in the patient’s body, which can also lead to treatment failure. The second medicine used to treat the infection caused by the Dipylidium Caninum (Dog Tapeworm) parasite is Niclosamide or Niclocide, which is an anthelminitic. The medicine is administered in chewable tablets for maximum effects. It is usually taken in twenty mg doses per day. The medicine is contraindicated if the patient presents hypersensitivity to this drug’s ingredients or if he or she consumes alcohol. The drug can also develop side effects such as nausea, retching and abdominal pain. Paromomycin can be used to treat the infection caused by the Dipylidium Caninum (Dog Tapeworm) parasite, and it is prescribed as an antibacterial agent. The medicine is used to treat infections that affect the patient’s intestine. It can also be used in combination with other drugs to successfully control any severe complications, such as hepatic coma. The main effect of the drug is to kill the parasite. The Paromomycin medicine is contraindicated if the patient is allergic to any ingredient in the drug or if he has a blockage of the intestines. There are cases in which treatment is successful, which can be said only after the samples of stools are examined again. The patient is healthy and the treatment efficient if the tests do not reveal the existence of eggs. To prevent the development of the infection, the patient has to treat the dog which is affected by the tapeworm. |
