API Description: Arpraziquantel is used to treat schistosomiasis (also known as bilharzia) in young children, particularly those aged 3 months to 6 years, a population for whom current treatments are unsuitable. It is the active form of praziquantel, offering a more palatable, dispersible tablet formulation that is tailored for young children and their specific needs in tropical climates. The medication works by causing muscle spasms and paralysis in the parasitic worms and damaging their protective barriers, allowing the body to destroy them.
