Albendazole Syrup, 100 mg/5 mL

Description

Albendazole Oral Suspension contains Albendazole as an active ingredient belonging to the class of benzimidazole drugs. It works by inhibiting tubulin polymerisation, causing metabolic disruption and energy depletion in the parasite, leading to immobilization. This eventually leads to the death of susceptible helminths and thus prevents the growth of parasitic infections.

Albendazole Oral Suspension may cause certain side effects in your child, such as indigestion, diarrhea, nausea, metallic taste, vomiting, headache, and stomach pain. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your pediatrician. Albendazole Oral Suspension should be given as advised by your doctor. Do not give the child more than the prescribed dose of Albendazole Oral Suspension. Generally, the dose of the medicine will be decided by your pediatrician depending upon the type and severity of the infection.

Albendazole Oral Suspension is intended for pediatric use only. Avoid giving Albendazole Oral Suspension to your child if she/he is allergic to antibiotics. Keep your doctor informed about your child’s health condition, medications, and medical history to rule out any side effects/interactions. Avoid giving Albendazole Oral Suspension if you notice any unusual bleeding or bruising symptoms in your child, and consult your paediatrician immediately.
