Description
Zentel Suspension is an oral medication containing albendazole, an anthelmintic agent used to treat various parasitic worm infections. It is effective against conditions such as roundworm, hookworm, whipworm, pinworm, and tapeworm.
Albendazole works by inhibiting the metabolism of parasites, leading to their death and elimination from the body.
The suspension is typically taken orally, with the dosage depending on the type of infection and patient age. For adults and children over two years old, a single dose of 20 ml is recommended. Children between one and two years old should receive 10 ml as a single dose. In cases of heavy mixed infestations involving Strongyloides or Taeniasis, the treatment may be extended to three consecutive days.

Zentel Suspension is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to albendazole or related compounds. It is not recommended for use during pregnancy, especially in the first trimester.
Regular monitoring of liver function and blood counts is advisable during treatment with Zentel Suspension.
