چکیده
To evaluate the efficacy of thiabendazole for prophylaxis of strongyloidiasis in patients with hematologic diseases, we performed a randomized, placebo-controlled trial. The incidence of strongyloidiasis was similar in both groups (p=0.36), but the compliance was better in the placebo group (p=0.04). This study does not support the use of thiabendazole prophylaxis in patients with hematologic diseases.
