Vermox 30ml Suspension 100mg/5ml - Overview
Vermox 30ml Suspension 100mg is an effective treatment for gastrointestinal worm infestations. It contains Mebendazole, a powerful anthelmintic agent that works by disrupting the digestive function of worms. This leads to their inability to absorb glucose and other nutrients, causing them to starve and eventually die.
How Does Vermox 30ml Suspension Work?
-
Mebendazole is the active ingredient in Vermox Suspension. It interferes with the formation of tubulin in the worms, which is essential for their cell function and reproduction. By disrupting this process, the worms cannot survive or reproduce, ultimately helping to rid the body of parasitic infections.
-
Mebendazole binds to the wormβs intestinal wall, preventing it from taking in glucose, which is essential for its survival.
-
Vermox effectively treats infections caused by common gastrointestinal parasites like roundworms, pinworms, hookworms, and whipworms.
