No, no, you fool...it's always flukes with RED wine and white wine with ringworms. 😠

Asking for medical advice on this site is pure genius, no more stupit doctors and waiting rooms for me.

Alcohol won't harm you any more than if there wasn't an intestinal fluke in your gut.

I would avoid the chloramphenicol one of the previous posters suggested as it is not used internally in first world countries much these days. (Nasty side effect called aplastic anaemia, still it's very cheap and extremely potent.)

Standard treatment for intestinal parasites is a single dose of albendazole 400 mg.

While we're on the topic of alcohol and intestinal parasites a friend of mine was camping at a popular climbing area in the US when this long term resident of the campground "Dirty Al" announced he'd been to the doctor and had been informed he had an intestinal fluke.

"I'm goin to poison the little bastard" was his last words before he settled down for a 4 day binge of nothing but beer, whisky and cigarettes (and i presume the odd glass of water so he didn't die). On the 3rd day he started complaining of an itchy behind and on the 4thday he was found passed out under a tree with a foot long intestinal fluke snaking out from under his shorts, presumably searching for a less toxic environment. Legend has it it was barbequed...

So to the OP, asromacalcio if don't want to go to the doctor there's always Dirty Al's way.

Neat story. I have to say I only had a couple of pints in mind, seeing as I don't drink all year it should do the trick nicely.

Thanks
