The clinical pattern in the acute stage of trichinellosis is presented, together with a classification of trichinellosis relative to severity of the disease. In turn, complications and diagnostic criteria are discussed. Drugs employed in the contemporary treatment of trichinellosis are presented (mainly those of the benzimidazole group and glucocorticosteroids) as well as indications for administering them, as related to severity of the disease.
