Albendazole 400mg Tablet Uses
Albendazole exerts its anthelmintic effect through selective toxicity toward parasitic organisms:
Microtubule Inhibition
Binds to beta-tubulin in parasitic cells, inhibiting microtubule polymerization essential for cellular structure and function.
Energy Depletion
Disrupts glucose uptake and transport in parasitic cells, leading to depletion of glycogen stores and ATP production.
Immobilization & Death
Causes irreversible damage to parasitic cells leading to immobilization, impaired reproduction, and eventual death of the parasite.
Selective Action
Has greater affinity for parasitic tubulin than mammalian tubulin, resulting in selective toxicity with minimal effect on human cells.

Frequently Asked Questions
Albendazole 400mg is used to treat various intestinal parasitic infections including roundworm, tapeworm, hookworm, threadworm (pinworm), and whipworm. It's also used for systemic parasitic conditions like hydatid disease and neurocysticercosis.
Albendazole works by inhibiting microtubule synthesis in parasitic cells, which disrupts their glucose uptake and energy metabolism, ultimately leading to parasite immobilization and death. It has selective toxicity that affects parasites more than human cells.
For most intestinal worm infections: Adults and children over 2 years take a single 400mg tablet. For some conditions like hydatid disease: 400mg twice daily for 28 days, followed by a 14-day break, repeated for 3 cycles. Always follow physician instructions.
Common side effects may include abdominal pain, nausea, headache, dizziness, and temporary hair loss. Serious side effects are rare but may include severe headache, vision changes, fever, or signs of infection. Most side effects are mild and temporary.
Clinical studies show Albendazole is 90-95% effective against most common intestinal worms when taken as directed. Complete eradication may require additional doses in some cases. Effectiveness is highest when taken with a fatty meal to enhance absorption.
