Mebendazole Aurobindo

Mebendazole, the active ingredient in Mebendazole Aurobindo, is an anthelmintic (benzimidazole) presented as an oral tablet for the treatment of intestinal worm infections in children and adults. It works by disrupting the parasite’s ability to absorb glucose, leading to its death and clearance from the gastrointestinal tract.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Cimetidine: may increase plasma levels of mebendazole, raising toxicity risk. - Antifungal azoles (e.g., ketoconazole): can inhibit metabolism, leading to higher exposure. - Cyclosporine: potential for increased mebendazole concentrations.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Oral contraceptives: reduced effectiveness reported; consider additional contraception. - Warfarin: possible alteration of anticoagulant effect; monitor INR. - Antacids containing aluminum or magnesium: may affect absorption; separate dosing by at least 2 hours.
