They are very difficult to get rid of.. so far I have been able to avoid aquiring them but a friend of mine has them in his tanks. They seem to mainly arrive with plants so I'm fairly careful about which plants I use.

The active ingredient is Levamisol and it is possible to overdose the frogs if they are in contact with it. See for example Levamisole - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In general it isn't considered good practice to attempt to cure infestations by drenching your enclosure since unless you can fully submerge everything you are unlikely to kill all of the worms and this can result in resistence in not only the nemerteans but other parasitic worms that the frogs may have.
