Up to @Carine:
Praziquantel (Biltricide) at a dose of 600 mg for flukes, should be followed and used as directed by your doctor.
Praziquantel 25 mg/kg body weight is usually recommended. E.g. for a person weighing 60 kg, the appropriate dose is 1500 mg (60 kg x 25 mg/kg). In this case, you can take 2.5 tablets (600 mg each) at intervals of 4-6 hours.
The drug can cause side effects such as gastrointestinal irritation or allergic reactions, so it is important to monitor how you feel after taking the drug.
And I have a question. How to take praziquantel (biltricide) 600 mg for flukes.how to dose. ? There are 6 tablets in the package. Thank you.
Thank you doctor and 'was very kind

Yes, Biltricide (Praziquantel) is an effective medication used to treat tapeworm infections. Praziquantel acts on the nervous system of parasites, leading to paralysis and death, which in turn leads to the removal of the parasite from the body.
As for the use of Biltricide in combination with beta-blockers for tachycardia, there are no contraindications to the simultaneous use of the drugs mentioned in the question. Remember to always report all medications and dietary supplements to your doctor, especially when he or she decides to introduce further medications. Such a procedure will allow for the selection of safe and effective pharmacotherapy.
If you are concerned about this situation, it is always a good idea to consult a doctor who can give you more personalized advice. If you do not have the opportunity to take advantage of the advice, I am attaching a link to the online teleconsultation:
