Albendazole Tablets

Mode of action
      Albendazole is found to inhibit the
 polymerization of the parasite tubulin into
microtubules. The loss of the cytoplasmic
microtubules leads to impaired uptake of
glucose by the larval and adult stages of
the parasites. The worm is then unable to
maintain energy production, which leads to
      immobilization and eventual death.
