A parasitological stool examination was performed before each treatment. Thirty children, aged 5-15 years, were not only found egg-positive for #A. lumbricoides$ and/or #T. trichiura$ before the first treatment but were also each treated and examined in each treatment round. Among these children, the intensity of infection with #A. lumbricoides$ decreased significantly following the first treatment but thereafter remained steady. In contrast, the repeated ivermectin treatments had no significant impact on the intensity of the #T. trichiura$ infections or on the prevalence of infection with #T. trichiura$ or #A. lumbricoides$ among the 30 children.
