Albendazole 200 mg Suspension

Description

Albendazole Suspension is a helpful liquid medicine that fights harmful worms inside our bodies. Worms like roundworms, hookworms, and tapeworms can cause stomach pain, tiredness, and poor growth in children. This sweet-tasting suspension is easy to take, especially for kids who can’t swallow tablets. It is usually taken with food and works best when the stomach is not empty.

This medicine belongs to a group called “anthelmintics,” which means it kills worms. After taking the medicine, it goes into the stomach and gets absorbed into the body. Then, it finds the worms and stops them from growing or living. It blocks the worms’ ability to use sugar, which they need to stay alive. Without sugar, the worms die, and the body removes them naturally through stool.

By removing worms, Albendazole Suspension helps improve health, energy levels, and growth, especially in children.
