Medicines are mainly used to treat infection with one or more types of intestinal parasites. The drug has broad activity on intestinal worms such as:
Hookworm (Ancylostoma duoenale, Necator americanus). Roundworm (Ascaris lumbricoides). Pinworms (Enterobius vermiculasris). Strongyloides stercoralis (Strongyloides stercoralis). Hairworm (Trichuris trichiura). Capillaria worm (Capillaria philippinensis). Trichinella spiralis (Trichinella spiralis). Migratory larval form in muscle, skin or viscera caused by Toxocara canis or T. cati. Tapeworms and tissue tapeworm larvae. In addition, the drug is also effective against larval disease of tapeworm (Taenia solium) in the nervous system, cysticercosis (Echinococcus granulosus) in the liver, lung and peritoneum or Giardia disease.
Albendazole has a similar mechanism of action to other Benzimidazole dewormers. It is associated with the tubules of the parasite, inhibiting the polymerization of the tubules into the microtubules of the cytoplasm - which are necessary organelles for the normal functioning of the parasite's cells. Besides, Albendazole also works to kill eggs, larvae and adult worms.
Albendazole inhibits glucose absorption, so worms lose energy, not enough to live, immobilize and then die.
After a single oral dose of 400 mg Albendazole, peak concentrations of the sulfoxide metabolite occur in 1-4 hours. When taken with high-fat food, plasma concentrations increase 2-4 times. The drug is eliminated mainly through the feces. The half-life is about 9 hours.

May be chewed, swallowed or crushed and mixed with food. The drug should be used at the same time of day to increase adherence.
