Albendazole-200 mg

Properties

Alsenthal (Albendazole) is a broad-spectrum anthelmintic agent that is active against most nematodes and some cestodes. Alsenthal disrupts the activity of the cytoplasmic microtubular system of the cells of the intestinal canal of helminths; alters the course of biochemical processes (suppresses glucose utilization), blocks the movement of secretory granules and other organelles in the muscle cells of roundworms, causing their death. Albendazole is poorly absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract, unchanged is not detected in blood plasma, because It quickly turns into the primary metabolite in the liver albendazole sulfoxide, which has anthelmintic activity. Oral bioavailability is low. It binds to blood plasma protein by 70%. The peak concentration in blood plasma occurs 2-5 hours after taking the drug. It has a plasma half-life of about 8-5 hours and is mainly excreted in the bile.
