presentation

action
Broad-spectrum dewormer.
Fenbendazole: It acts by binding to tubulin, a protein that makes up the parasite microtubules, inhibiting the parasite glucose uptake, which causes loss of energy and death.
Pyrantel: It stimulates acetylcholine release, inhibiting the cholyntesterase and provoking a neuromuscular blockade in helminths. In consequence, it causes the paralysis and detachment of parasites.
Praziquantel: It increases the permeability to calcium in the parasite, producing spastic paralysis and tissue damage.
