It can be used clinically to expel ascaris, pinworms, red worms, whipworms, hookworms, and dung roundworms. After being metabolized into sulfoxides or sulfones in the body, they inhibit the parasite's absorption of glucose, leading to the depletion of glycogen in the parasite, or inhibit the fumarate reductase system, hindering the production of ATP, making it impossible for the parasite to survive and reproduce.
