Prescription Required.Why?
Is the active ingredient in the medication.
Treatment of intestinal infections caused by roundworms (ascaris lumbricoides), whipworms (trichuris trichiura), and pinworms (enterobius vermicularis).
May be used to treat other parasitic infections depending on the formulation and doctor's prescription.
Acavom 100mg Tab (Mebendazole) works by interfering with the ability of parasitic worms to absorb glucose, which is essential for their survival. This leads to the death and expulsion of the worms from the body.
Store at room temperature, away from moisture and direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.
Dosage and duration of treatment are determined by the specific parasitic infection, the patient's age, and other factors. It's crucial to follow the doctor's instructions carefully.
Mebendazole is usually taken by mouth, with or without food, as a single dose or for multiple days, as prescribed.
The most common side effects are mild and usually temporary, such as abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and headache.
No known interactions with alcohol, but excessive alcohol consumption may affect overall health and medication effectiveness.
Generally safe, but drowsiness may occur, especially in the initial days of treatment, so caution is advised.
Use of mebendazole during pregnancy and breastfeeding is generally not recommended unless the potential benefits outweigh the risks. Consult with your doctor for advice.
Dosage and administration for children differ from adults, so always follow the doctor's instructions.
Mebendazole is primarily metabolized in the liver, and kidney function does not significantly impact its effectiveness.
Patients with liver disease or impaired liver function may need to be monitored closely during treatment.
