In filariasis control in Indonesia, various regimes of DEC administration have been tried out with good results. However, the higher dosage regimes gave severe reactions. Since a trial with low dosage administration by community leaders gave very good results with minimal side effects, the execution of the control program was handed over to the Primary Health Care unit whose personnel trained community leaders to recognize the symptoms of the disease, distribute the drugs and treat side effects when they occurred. Communicable disease control through health care approach is now being promoted. The activities in the Integrated Services post are carried out by volunteers through village organizations supervised by the health care unit was established, using 1 cadre to look after the health of 10 households.
在印度尼西亚的丝虫病防治工作中，已尝试过多种乙胺嗪（DEC）给药方案，效果良好。然而，较高剂量的方案会引发严重反应。由于社区领袖进行的低剂量给药试验取得了非常好的效果，且副作用极小，因此防治计划的实施工作被移交给了初级卫生保健单位，该单位的人员培训社区领袖识别疾病症状、分发药物并在出现副作用时进行治疗。目前正在推广通过卫生保健方法进行传染病防治。综合服务站的活动由志愿者通过村庄组织开展，这些组织由卫生保健单位监督，每个干部负责照顾10户家庭的健康。
