Integration with Other Programmes

 

 

Deworming can be scaled up and made more cost-effective through integration with other programmes, such as:

*     School health programmes (e.g. Sri Lanka and Thailand)

*     Vitamin A supplementation programme (e.g. Bangladesh and Nepal)

*     Integrated Management of Childhood Illness (IMCI) as in Bangladesh, Bhutan, Myanmar, Nepal and Timor-Leste

*     Maternal and Child Health (MCH) programmes (e.g. Sri Lanka)

*     Mass drug administration (MDA) for elimination of Lymphatic Filariasis (LF)
