I am researching parasite alternatives . Many folk here have tried albenzadole, ivermectin, and pyrantel.

HAS ANYONE TRIED DEC? It is used in filarial, and I think ( not certain ) blocks an acid used for filaria to reproduce . If you google : "diethylcarbamazine" you will get info on the subject .
Filarial worms were found in borellia by the scientist who discovered the bacteria in the ticks
( Burgdorfer ) . There are some docs who question the possibility of lyme containing strains of filarial, which can not be eradicated with ABX.

I am not a scientist - just a desperate seeker .

I want to try this but I need to find an online pharmacy that is reputable and will send it to me without a prescription.

I am going to be trying it in my parasite med rotation. I have read it synergizes most effectively with albendazole.
