Abd 1 400 MG Syrup 10 ML contains albendazole (400 mg), which operates in your body as follows:

• Inhibits Polymerisation of Worm β-tubulin: Albendazole targets the β-tubulin protein inside parasitic worms and prevents its polymerisation. This action results in the loss of cytoplasmic microtubules within these worms.

• Reduces Glucose Uptake: By inhibiting β-tubulin polymerisation, albendazole reduces glucose uptake by both larval and adult stages of susceptible parasites. This leads to the depletion of their energy stores.

• Induces Parasite Death: The reduced energy production renders the parasites immobile and eventually causes their death. Albendazole is also found to be effective against some protozoan parasites such as Giardia.

• Store Abd 1 400 MG Syrup 10 ML below 30°C.

• Keep the medicine in a tightly closed container away from light.

• Unused suspension should be discarded 1 month after opening the bottle.

• Always check the expiry date before use.

• Keeping a clean environment is crucial when managing parasitic infections. Regularly wash your hands, especially before meals, to reduce the risk of re-infection.

• A balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals can help fortify your immune system against parasitic infections. Include more fruits and vegetables in your meals.
