22. ADAP Drugs: Sulfadiazine
    A sulfa drug used in combination with pyrimethamine and leucovorin as maintenance treatment to prevent recurrence of toxoplasmosis. (Microsulfon)  
    http://www.atdn.org/access/drugs/sulf.html
    
    Extractions: Sulfadiazine comes in 500 mg tablets. You must discontinue ddC until you are stable on sulfadiazine. Sulfadiazine is given in combination with pyrimethamine. The two drugs must be used together to be effective. The drugs are used at relatively high dosage, leading to a strong likelihood of side effects. These drugs cross the blood-brain barrier and can treat toxoplasmosis infection in the brain. The usual dose of sulfadiazine is 2-8 g daily in adults and 100-200 mg/kg daily in children. How long it may take to work Treatment usually is continued for 3-4 weeks. Longer treatment of up to 6 months may be required in people with AIDS. These drugs kill the form of the parasite that causes active disease, but do not kill that form that is the reservoir of infection. Relapse occurs in 50 percent of people who stop taking the drugs. For this reason it is important to continue on maintenance treatment, which is often a lower dose of the combination of pyrimethamine and the sulfa drug

    toxoplasmosis pregnancy. toxoplasmosis is caused by a parasite called toxoplasma gondii. What are the symptoms of toxoplasmosis?  
    http://www.womens-health.co.uk/toxo.htm
    
    Extractions: Toxoplasmosis is caused by a parasite called toxoplasma gondii. This is found in different forms in raw meat, within cats who eat raw meat and their faeces. Toxoplasmosis infection is common in both men and women outside of pregnancy, however it is infection during pregnancy that is of most concern as it can lead to infection in the unborn infant: congenital toxoplasmosis. Who is at risk? Once you have had toxoplasmosis, the body develops immunity and new exposure during pregnancy is not an issue. Peak incidence is between ages 25 and 30 years and in the UK by this time, about 30% of people will have had toxoplasmosis, hence will not be at risk of any problems during pregnancy. In the US, about 30-35% have antibodies and in France more than 65% of women will have already had toxoplasmosis. Because infection is more common in France, congenital toxoplasmosis occurs at over twice the rate in the UK or US. It is not known for sure how many women catch toxoplasmosis during pregnancy, but some research suggests it is of the order 2 in every 1000, which means about 1400 each year in the UK.

    Extractions: Toxoplasmosis is caused the protozoan Toxoplasma gondii . This parasite has a very complex life cycle. The definitive host, in which the sexual cycle takes place is the domestic cat. The intermediate hosts, however, are many and varied and the parasite can be regarded as an opportunistic one. They span many vertebrates from rodents to domestic farm animals to humans. Not surprisingly, because of the close association with between humans and cats, high levels of infection are found in human populations. The parasite was first described in these intermediate hosts and it was only recently that the domestic cat was identified as being the definitive host. In the cat Toxoplasma undergoes a typical coccidian life cycle. The sporozoites infecting the intestinal epithelial cells and undergoing schizogony. Only in the cat is the sexual phase of the parasite, gametogony, observed, which produces a single celled oocyte. The parasite cycles through the cat rapidly, taking from 3-5 days. There are two groups of intermediate hosts, herbivores/omnivores and carnivores and result in distinctive differences in the life cycle stages.

28. ADAP Drugs: Sulfadoxine
    An antibiotic that has been used to prevent PCP. It may also be effective in preventing toxoplasmosis.(Fansidar).  
    http://www.atdn.org/access/drugs/sulfa.html
    
    Extractions: Sulfadoxine is an antibiotic that has been used to prevent PCP. It may also be effective in preventing toxoplasmosis. Sulfadoxine appears to be effective against PCP, but in rare and unpredictable cases it can have very dangerous and even fatal side effects, in some instances an allergic response called Stevens-Johnson syndrome. Use of Bactrim dapsone , or aerosolized pentamidine is preferable. Side effects Stevens-Johnson syndrome, skin allergies, liver damage, high fever and weakness, anemia, sensitivity to light, bleeding and/or bruising, folic acid deficiency (loss of taste, inflammation of the tongue, diarrhea, sore throat, difficulty swallowing, inflammation of the mouth), skin rash, fatigue, aching in joints or muscles, red blood cells in the urine, difficult or painful urination, goiter, tremors, seizures, headache, dizziness, nausea, and vomiting. Dosage Pyrimethamine comes in tablets combined with sulfadoxine. For treatment of isosporiasis, adults take 50-75 mg of pyrimethamine daily, as needed to control or eliminate infection. For treatment of toxoplasmosis, usual dose is 25 mg daily. For AIDS related toxoplasmosis, treatment begins with a loading dose of 100-200 mg in 2 divided doses daily for the first 2 days, then 50-75 mg daily. Maintenance treatment is 25 mg per day, sulfadiazine 4 grams per day, and leucovorin 10 mg per day. How long it may take to work

    Extractions: VIH y SIDA VIH y SIDA Toxoplasmosis Revisión, mayo 1.999 Qué es la toxoplasmosis ? La toxoplasmosis es una enfermedad infecciosa ocasionada por un parásito, el Toxoplasma gondii , protozoario intracelular obligado. La toxoplasmosis puede ser aguda o crónica, sintomática o asintomática. La infección aguda recientemente adquirida suele ser asintomática en niños mayores y adultos; y en caso de presentar síntomas y signos (enfermedad aguda) estos suelen ser de corta duración y autolimitados. En la mayoría de los casos persiste como quistes en los tejidos pero la persona no suele tener manifestaciones clínicas (infección crónica), pero en otros casos se presenta con formas clínicas persistentes o recurrentes (enfermedad crónica). El parásito se presenta bajo tres formas diferentes: trofozoíto (antes taquizoíto), quistes tisulares y ooquistes. Estos últimos sólo se producen en los intestinos de los huéspedes definitivos. El ciclo vital del Toxoplasma tiene como huésped definitivo al gato, o miembros de su familia, que tras ingerir alguna de las formas del parásito sufre en las células epiteliales de su intestino un ciclo asexual y luego un ciclo sexual, eliminándose en sus heces millones de ooquistes. Cuando estos esporulan se vuelven infecciosos pudiéndose infectar otros animales por su ingestión. Por debajo de 4 grados C, o por encima de 37, no se produce la esporulación y los ooquistes no son infecciosos. Cómo se transmite ?

El huésped definitivo del parásito es el gato La toxoplasmosis se adquiere bien al ingerir tierra contaminada o carne cruda/poco hecha, bien por contacto directo con secreciones y excrementos de gato, o bien por vía materno-fetal a través de la placenta (toxoplasmosis congénita). La toxoplasmosis adquirida es una enfermedad leve y a menudo inadvertida. La toxoplasmosis congénita, en cambio, es muy grave para el feto, al que puede causar ceguera y daños irreversibles en el sistema nervioso central. La toxoplasmosis puede afectar también a pacientes inmunodeprimidos (SIDA, pacientes con cáncer en quimioterapia, etc), pudiendo afectar en estos pacientes al cerebro, los ojos, el corazón, el pulmón, el corazón y el hígado.

    Extractions: Toxoplasmosis is a relatively widespread parasitic infection caused by a one-celled organism called Toxoplasma gondii. When contracted by a pregnant woman, the infection can pose serious risks to her fetus. Between one in 1,000 and one in 10,000 babies in this country is born infected with toxoplasmosis. Fortunately, a pregnant woman can follow some simple precautions that can reduce her chances of becoming infected. Since more than half of all pregnancies are unintended, these precautions should be followed by all women who could become pregnant. A pregnant woman who contracts toxoplasmosis for the first time has about a 40 percent chance of passing the infection to her fetus. However, the risk and severity of the baby's infection depend upon when in the pregnancy it occurs. Studies suggest that, when mothers are infected in the first trimester (first three months of pregnancy), about 15 percent of fetuses become infected, as compared to about 30 percent in the second trimester and about 60 percent in the third. However, the consequences of the fetal infection are more severe the earlier in pregnancy the infection occurs.

    Extractions: There are simple steps you can take to avoid toxoplasmosis infection: Don’t empty a cat’s litter box. Have someone else do this for you. Don’t feed your cat raw or undercooked meat. Keep your cat indoors, if possible. Don’t eat raw or undercooked meat, especially pork or lamb. Wash your hands immediately after touching raw meat.
