Meben - 500mg Tablet

The active ingredient of Meben is Mebendazole  USP 500mg.
Mebendazole is a synthetic benzimidazole derivative and highly effective and safe anthelmintic agent used in the treatment of single or mixed gastrointestinal infections.

Mebendazole interferes with the reproduction and survival of helminths by inhibiting the formation of their cytoplasmic micro tubules, thereby selectively and irreversibly blocking glucose uptake.

This results in depletion of glycogen stores and leads to reduced formation of ATP required for survival and reproduction of helminths, causing an eventual death of the helminth.
