Dicarb-Forte Tablet 10's 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. The worms or parasites live inside the human body and receive important nutrients from a person's body and make them sick called parasitic infection. Dicarb-Forte Tablet 10's does not work against worm infections caused by pinworms or tapeworms.

Dicarb-Forte Tablet 10's 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, Dicarb-Forte Tablet 10's 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.

Dicarb-Forte Tablet 10's 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. Besides this, it also reduces the levels of eosinophil count (white blood cells), which increases during parasitic infection and thus controls breathlessness, cough, and cold associated with it.

Bancroft's filariasis: It is caused by thread-like worms that live inside the lymphatic system of humans. The lymphatic system of the body consists of fluid and is responsible for fighting infections. This disease spreads from one person to person by mosquitoes. Common symptoms include fever, skin exfoliation. And high levels of eosinophils (white blood cells).

Loiasis: It is also called 'african eye worm' which is an infectious parasitic disease transmitted to humans by the bite of Chrysops deerfly species. A person dealing with this disease may face itchy, non-painful swellings in their body. Sometimes, a person may see worms crawling under their skin or an eye worm. 

River blindness: This is caused by a parasitic worm and is transmitted through repeated bites by black flies near the rivers and streams. If not treated, then it may even cause visual impairment and sometimes blindness. 

Eosinophilic lung: This is a disease related to lung problems in which white blood cells in the body get increased. White blood cells are responsible for fighting allergic reactions and certain infections. Some of these disease symptoms include cough, chest pain, chest tightness, increased mucus, rapid breathing, and bloody mucus.
