About Declays Forte Tablet
Declays Forte Tablet belongs to a group of medicines called 'anti-parasitic' used to treat certain worm or parasitic infections, including Bancroft's filariasis, eosinophilic lung, loiasis, and river blindness.

Declays Forte Tablet consists of two medicines, namely: Diethylcarbamazine (antiparasitic) and Chlorphenamine (antiallergic). Diethylcarbamazine paralyzes the parasitic worms by stopping them interacting with the host cell, thereby killing it. On the other hand, Chlorpheniramine works by reducing the allergies symptoms characterized by increased white blood cells (eosinophils), sneezing, runny nose and watery eyes. Thus, Declays Forte Tablet prevents the growth of worms in the human body by killing microfilariae and some of the adult worms in the human intestine and reducing allergic symptoms caused by parasitic worms.

Medicinal Benefits
Declays Forte Tablet consists of Diethylcarbamazine and chlorpheniramine as its medicinal constituents and is used to treat certain types of parasitic infections. Declays Forte Tablet is an anti-parasitic medication that works by killing worms and inhibits the action of histamine (a natural chemical released by the body) responsible for causing allergic reactions in the body during parasite infection.
