Bandy Suspension

Introduction

Bandy Suspension 10ml is a medicine containing Albendazole an anthelmintic medication designed to combat parasitic worm infections by inhibiting their growth and multiplication in the body. It is effective against worms such as pork tapeworms and dog tapeworms.

Albendazole works by impeding the development and reproduction of newly hatched insect larvae or worms, contributing to the eradication of the infection.

Shake the suspension well before each use and measure the prescribed amount accurately using the provided device. It is usually taken with food to improve absorption. Swallow the medication whole with water if in tablet form, and complete the full prescribed course even if symptoms alleviate before completion. If vomiting occurs within an hour of taking the medication, consult the healthcare provider.

Pregnant individuals should use effective birth control during albendazole treatment and for at least 3 days after the last dose. Regular medical tests are necessary to monitor liver function, and any signs of infection should be reported promptly.

If a dose is missed, take it as soon as possible, unless it's close to the next scheduled dose. Avoid taking two doses simultaneously.

How it works

Albendazole is like a warrior against worms in our bodies. It works by messing up the intestinal cells of these worms, preventing them from building important structures they need. This disruption affects their ability to take in glucose, use energy, and reproduce. Essentially, albendazole puts a wrench in their machinery, making them immobile and causing their demise. Some smart worms have figured out how to resist it, but others that rely on certain bacteria for survival face a tough choice – lose the bacteria and die or become sterile.
