Hi,

Hetrazan does not appear to release heaviness associated with the lumbar problem.

Hetrazan (diethylcarbamazine) is effectively used in the treatment and prevention of filariasis and tropical pulmonary eosinophilia.

It works by killing both microfilariae (larval forms) and adult forms of the parasitic worms that cause filariasis.

There is no documented evidence that it acts by 'releasing heaviness' in the waist due to lumbar problems.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
