Zentel Deworming (Albendazole 200mg) Chewable Tablet 2x2's [Value Pack]

Product Registration Number: MAL19046014XCR

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.
