This is in response to your forum post & PM to me about drug treatment for flukes.
Fluke Drug Treatment Protocol - Albendazole & Praziquantel: http://curezone.info/forums/fm.asp?i=1667673
Recommend the Valbazen cattle suspension vs Albendazole tablets. Provides more consistent uptake rate & bioavailability. Available on E-Bay & other sites noted in protocol.
Recommend Praziquantel tablets vs stuffing Praziquantel powder into gelcaps. At E-Bay, enter into search box for all categories: praziquantel 600mg. Listings show for aquarium/animal use but contain same formulation as human version. This enables buying the med without an Rx.
If you have pre-existing liver problems, recommend taking these meds in 7 day cycles rather than 14 days. Rest liver for 1 week between cycles. This method reduces the impact on the liver but still keeps pace with the life cycle of parasites.
For all folks taking parasite meds, recommend the following supplements & vitamins. These support body systems in processing the meds & eliminating toxins & die-off:
~ Milk Thistle, 1 tab, 125mg, twice daily. Supports liver functioning & removal of toxins. Benefits: http://www.herbwisdom.com/herb-milk-thistle.html
~ NAC (N-acetyl cysteine), 1 tab, 600mg, 3 times daily. Antioxidant & liver support. Benefits:

~ Other vitamins & minerals, especially Vitamin C & MSM: http://curezone.info/forums/fm.asp?i=2161663
Be sure to take each meds dose with a meal containing approx 30-40g fat. This enhances absorption of the drug & keeps nausea at bay.
A handy tip for the fat is mixing 2-3 tsp olive oil w/herbs or seasonings & pour over salads & veggies. Check the fat grams on all food labels...the measurement doesn't have to be exact...close is good enough. (lol)
Also, eat lots of high-fiber food & drink several glass of beverages daily. This assists your urinary, lymphatic, & GI tracts in removing die-off & toxins.
To relieve nausea, drink lemon-lime carbonated sodas, e.g., 7-Up, Sprite, etc. Another tip is eating saltine or soda crackers.

Continue taking your other vitamins & supplements during treatment with fluke meds. Take them at different times of the day, apart from the meds.
Skip all herbal & OTC parasite remedies as these products counteract & remove parasite meds from your system.
