MECHANISM OF ACTION: Albendazole is a broad spectrum anti-helminthic. The principal mode of action for albendazole is by its inhibitory effect on tubulin polymerization which results in the loss of cytoplasmic microtubules in the intestines of nematodes worms, ultimately causing energy depletion and death of the organism. Albendazole's broad-spectrum activity makes it effective against various parasitic worms, including nematodes (roundworms) and cestodes (flatworms). This mechanism of action is key to its efficacy in treating conditions such as neurocysticercosis, cystic hydatid disease, giardiasis, and other parasitic infections in humans.
INDICATIONS: Ben Plus Suspension is indicated for the treatment of various parasitic infections caused by helminths. The specific indications for albendazole use include – Neurocysticercosis (a parasitic infection of the central nervous system), Cystic Hydatid Disease (parasitic infection in liver, lungs & other organs), Giardiasis, Ascariasis, Hookworm Infections and Trichuriasis.
