Our commitment to quality and efficacy ensures that our Albendazole powder meets stringent standards for the treatment and control of parasitic infections in a variety of animal species.
What is Albendazole?
Albendazole is a benzimidazole derivative renowned for its efficacy against a wide range of intestinal and tissue parasites. It is a common choice for veterinarians and animal health professionals globally. The primary component of our product is Albendazole.
Key Characteristics:
- Appearance: White or off-white powder.
- Pharmacological Action: Albendazole functions as an anthelmintic by binding to tubulin in worms, which disrupts vital cellular processes such as cell division, protein assembly, and energy metabolism. This mechanism leads to the paralysis and death of susceptible parasites.
- Spectrum of Activity: It is effective against various types of worms, including nematodes (roundworms), cestodes (tapeworms), and trematodes (flukes).
Applications and Usage in Veterinary Medicine
Albendazole powder is indicated for the treatment and control of nematodiasis, taeniasis (tapeworm infections), and flukeworm disease in livestock and poultry.
Recommended Dosage (General Guidance – Always consult with a veterinarian for specific dosage and administration):
The product is administered orally. Dosage is typically based on body weight:
- Horses: 0.2-0.4g of powder per 1 kg of body weight (equivalent to 5-10mg Albendazole per 1kg body weight for a 2.5% formulation).
