Description
Zentel Tab 400 mg contains albendazole, an anthelmintic medication used to treat a variety of parasitic worm infections. It is commonly prescribed for infections 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 medication is available in tablet form, typically taken orally. The dosage depends on the type of infection being treated, but a common regimen is a single dose or a course lasting 3 to 7 days. It should be taken with food to enhance absorption.
Common side effects may include abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, headache, and dizziness. Serious adverse effects are rare but can include liver problems or allergic reactions.
Zentel 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.
Consultation with a healthcare professional is advised for proper diagnosis, dosage, and duration of treatment.
