The present study evaluated management of Trichenella spiralis infection with Kalobin®, a widely used herbal remedy for respiratory infections as compared to Albendazole®.Consequently, one hundred Swiss albino male mice were divided in five groups of 20 each. GI:untreated, uninfected mice (negative control). GII: infected untreated mice (positive control).GIII: infected treated with Albendazole (ABZ) started three days after infection and continued forthree successive days. GIV: infected and treated with Kalobin began 24 hours after infection andwent on for 6 consecutive days since infection. GV: infected mice and Kalobin treated started 15day before infection up to 6 successive days (pretreated group). Two hundred T. spiralis larvaewere given orally to all groups except GI and evaluated parasitological, histopathological, andbiochemical of the efficacy of treatment.The results showed that both GIII and GV caused substantial decrease in intestinal adults' countthan other ones (94.4%, & 52.1% respectively). These results were supported by the enhancementof histology and biochemistry findings. %U https://jesp.journals.ekb.eg/article_297345_a0422dbabcfa7567e48930800e53fcd4.pdf
