Anthelmintics (in the U.S., antihelminthics) are drugs that expel parasitic worms (helminthes) from the body or kill them.
Examples include albendazole, diethylcarbamazine, mebendazole, nicolsamide (against tapeworms), ivermectin, suramin and thiabendazole.
Many members of the piperazine family are successful anthelmintics.
