Vemizol Deworming (Albendazole 400mg/10mL) Suspension 10mL (Milk Flavour)
Product Registration Number: MAL19971865XZ
Albendazole is a benzimidazole carbamate with antiprotozoal and antihelmintic effects against intestinal and tissue parasites. Albendazole exhibits larvicidal, ovicidal and vermicidal activity, and is thought to exert its antihelmintic effect by inhibiting tubulin polymerization. This causes the disruption of the helminth metabolism, including energy depletion, which immobilizes and kills the susceptible helminth.
