“…For the past thirty years, the most widely used drug has been Praziquantel (PZQ) because it has many advantages. In addition to being effective against all species of schistosomes with very few side effects, this drug can be administered orally in a single dose and is inexpensive (Dissous et al, 2009). However, evidence of emerging drug resistance and low efficacy of PZQ has been reported in Egypt and Senegal (Cioli et al, 2008).…”

Schistosomiasis or bilharziasis is a parasitic disease caused by flatworms or plathelminthes (bilharzias or schistosomes) that live in the venous vascular system. This disease is a major public health problem in countries located in the tropics and subtropics. The paper focuses on contributing to the eradication of schistosomiasis in Côte d'Ivoire by highlighting the endogenous knowledge of the Attie people on the medicinal plants used for the treatment of schistosomiasis in the Health District of Adzope. An ethnobotanical survey was conducted among traditional medicine practitioners (TMP) using a semi-structured interview associated with the show-and-tell technique. A total of 33 medicinal species have been listed. They are divided into 31 genus and 21 botanical families each with a predominance of Annonaceae, Asteraceae, Euphorbiaceae, and Fabaceae with three species. The most cited species are Combretum paniculatum (CF=14.79%) and Mareya micrantha (CF=10.56%). The leaves are the most used organs, and the decoction is the main mode of preparation of the recipes which are generally administered orally. The results of this study constitute a valuable database for further research in pharmacology and phytochemistry.

Schistosomiasis or bilharziasis is a parasitic disease caused by flatworms or plathelminthes: bilharzias or schistosomes that live in the venous vascular system. This disease is a major public health problem in countries located in the tropics and subtropics.
