Veterinary Anthelmintic
Alfazol Oral Tablet, Each tablet, which is white–off-white in color and with two notches, contains 1200 mg of Albendazole.
Albendazole is a broad-spectrum anthelmintic belonging to the benzimidazole carbamate chemical group. It acts by inhibiting the effectiveness of Fumarate Reductase, which is in the glucose metabolism of the parasites, and by disrupting the energy metabolism of the parasites. At the end of this degradation, the use of glycogen increases and the parasite dies. Albendazole reaches peak plasma concentration in cattle 6 hours after administration. Albendazole is rapidly distributed in body fluids and tissues, and its plasma level rarely exceeds 1%. The product is metabolized to Sulphoxide and Sulphone compounds. As a single dose, oral albendazole is excreted in the urine, 28% in the first 24 hours and 47% in the 9-day period.
Alfazol Oral Tablet is used for the treatment and protection of adults, larvae and eggs of cattle gastrointestinal, lung pinworms, adults and eggs of liver flukes, adult and young forms of stripes and infestations.
