Lucanthone is a drug used to treat parasitic diseases such asbilharziasis[1] andschistosomiasis[2] It is aprodrug and is converted to theactive metabolitehycanthone.[3]

Mechanism of action

[edit]

Hycanthone binds toacetylcholine receptors in the worm[4] and results in increased sensitivity to stimulation by5-HT causing increase inmotility, paired worms are separated and reproduction is stopped. It causes damage of theintegument andvitelline duct.
