What is Mebendazole?
Active Ingredients: Mebendazole
Mebendazole Tablets are used to treat mild to moderate infections caused by worms. It is effective against roundworms (ascariasis), hookworms (ancylostomiasis, necatoriasis, uncinariasis), pinworms (enterobiasis, oxyuriasis), and whipworms (trichuriasis). Mebendazole is approved for use in patients over two years of age.
Mebendazole belongs to the family of medications called anthelmintics. It works by inhibiting tubulin polymerization. As an effect, the worm's ability to utilize glucose is impaired, which results in immobilization and death.
