Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a worldwide zoonotic disease caused by Echinococcus granulosus, which produces long-term infections in humans and animals. Available anti-parasitic treatment against CE is mostly limited to the use of benzimidazoles, mainly albendazole (ABZ). However, it has undesirable side effects and their efficacy is about 50%. Based on the problematic described, new treatment alternatives are urgently needed. Plants from the Stevia genus (Asteraceae) are a potential source of anti-protozoal and anti-microbial compounds. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the in vitro and in vivo efficacy of the Stevia aristata dichloromethane extract against E. granulosus. Viable and free protoscoleces or cysts were treated with ...
