'''Benznidazole''' ([[International Nonproprietary Name|INN]], formerly marketed by [[Hoffman-La Roche]] under the trade names Rochagan and Radanil) is an [[antiparasitic]] [[medication]] used in the treatment of [[Chagas disease]]. Its mechanism of action is the production of [[Radical_(chemistry)|free radicals]], to which the ''[[Trypanosoma cruzi]]'' is particularly sensitive given its reduced detoxification capabilities.<ref name=urbina>{{cite web | url=http://www.fac.org.ar/fec/chagas2/llave/md5/md508/urbina.htm | title=Nuevas drogas para el tratamiento etiológico  de la Enfermedad de Chagas | accessdate=March 24, 2012 | author=Urbina, Julio A. | language=Spanish}}</ref> Roche donated the technology and rights to produce benznidazole to the Brazilian government.<ref>http://www.itg.be/evde/04_Chagas_diseasep12.htm</ref>

<!-- Society and culture -->
(Description)
It is on the [[World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines]], the most important medications needed in a basic [[health system]].<ref>{{cite web|title=WHO Model List of EssentialMedicines|url=http://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/10665/93142/1/EML_18_eng.pdf?ua=1|work=World Health Organization|accessdate=22 April 2014|date=October 2013}}</ref>


==Medical uses==  
=====Condition 2=====
Benznidazole has a significant activity during the acute phase of the disease, with a therapeutical success rate of up to 80%. Its curative capabilities during the chronic phase are, however, limited. Some studies have found parasitologic cure (a complete elimination of ''T. cruzi'' from the body) in pediatric and young patients during the early stage of the chronic phase, but overall failure rate in chronically infected individuals is typically above 80%.<ref name=urbina />


However, some studies indicate treatment with benznidazole in chronic patients, even if incapable of producing parasitologic cure, carries a significative reduction of occurrence of electrocardiographic changes and a delayed worsening of the clinical condition of the patient.<ref name=urbina />
(Description)


Benznidazole has proven to be effective in the treatment of reactivated  ''T. cruzi''  infections caused by [[immunosuppression]], such as [[AIDS]] patients or those under immunosuppressive therapy related to organ transplants.<ref name=urbina />
=====Condition 3=====


==Side effects==
(Description)
The [[adverse drug reaction|side effect]]s most commonly associated with benznidazole therapy are [[rash]] and [[Gastrointestinal tract|gastrointestinal]] symptoms such as [[nausea]]. Rarely, [[peripheral neuropathy]] may present after prolonged treatment.
