Long term impact of large scale community-directed delivery of doxycycline for the treatment of onchocerciasis

BACKGROUND: Anti-Wolbachia treatment with doxycycline is effective in sterilising and killing adult Onchocerca volvulus nematodes, proving superior to ivermectin and of great potential as an alternative approach for the treatment and control of onchocerciasis, particularly in areas of Loa loa co-end...
