What are mebendazole tablets?
MEBENDAZOLE (Vermox ® ) is an anthelmintic. This medicine treats parasitic (worm) infections from roundworms, hookworms, pinworms, whipworms, or infections with two or more of these worms. Generic mebendazole tablets are available.
How does it work? Vermox (Mebendazole) tablets and suspension contain the active ingredient mebendazole, which is a type of medicine called an anthelmintic. It is used to treat certain types of worm infections of the gut.
Mebendazole works by preventing worms from being able to absorb sugars that are essential for their survival. This depletes the energy stores of the worms, leading to their eventual death within a few days. The dead worms are then excreted from the gut in the stools.
Mebendazole is used mainly in the treatment of threadworm, however is also used to treat infections of roundworm, whipworm and hookworm.
A single dose is effective for treating threadworm infections, but a second dose may be needed after two weeks if the infection comes back. It is recommended that the whole family are treated.
For treating roundworm, hookworm or whipworm infections, one dose is needed twice a day for three days.
