In Dungeons and Dragons the disease of lycanthropy is both hereditary (the children of lycanthropes are lycanthropes of the same type) and infectious (victims of lycanthrope bites become lycanthropes themselves, of the same type as the attacker).

Hereditary lycanthropes can usually change shape at will, and retain their personality, being in control of their actions. Infected lycanthropes' shape changes are affected by the full moon. They usually are not aware of their actions and act as aggressive predators.

Lycanthropes can assume the form of an animal/humanoid hybrid, in addition to their animal form. Most lycanthropes in animal form can communicate with animals of their type. In humanoid form, they can use any weapon, and in animal form, they use natural weapons like the corresponding animals, but each type has a different fighting style in hybrid form.

While it is technically a disease, it is a mystical curse as well, so it is up to the DM as to how it can be, or even if it can be, cured.
I'd try those druids up at the Circle of the Moon, but, check their teeth first...
