Albendazole is a potent, broad-spectrum antiparasitic medicine used to treat various worm infections, including ascariasis (roundworm), hookworm, whipworm, threadworm (pinworm), tapeworms, and some other internal parasites. Whether you’re treating a confirmed diagnosis or facing a household outbreak in children or adults, generic albendazole offers an effective, well-established solution. Our albendazole is sourced from SAHPRA-approved manufacturers and dispensed by a registered pharmacist for your absolute safety.
The core ingredient in these prescription tablets, Albendazole, attacks parasites where they live. Once ingested, it:
This multiple-action approach makes albendazole highly effective for single and mixed helminthic infections, and is trusted by medical organisations worldwide, including recommendations by the South African Department of Health for mass deworming campaigns.
Correct dosing is essential. While Albendazole 400mg is the standard adult dosage, exact regimens may depend on the type of infection and your doctor’s instructions. The table below illustrates the typical regimens:
| Indication | Recommended Dosage (Adults & Children >2 yrs) | Repeat Dose Needed? | Paediatric Dose Guidance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Roundworm, Hookworm, Whipworm | 400mg single dose | No | 400mg single dose |
| Threadworm (Pinworm) | 400mg single dose | Repeat after 2 weeks | 400mg single dose |
| Tapeworm (Taeniasis, Hymenolepis) | 400mg daily for 3 days | No | 400mg daily for 3 days |
| Strongyloidiasis | 400mg daily for 3 days | No | 400mg daily for 3 days |
Never exceed the recommended dose and always finish the full course if instructed. For children under 2 years, consult your healthcare provider for precise paediatric dosing.
Take the tablet(s) whole with a full glass of water. Albendazole can be taken with or after food for better absorption. Crushing or chewing the tablet is possible for children who can’t swallow tablets. For large-scale deworming, discuss in advance with your pharmacist or health advisor. If you’re unsure about the diagnosis or timing of a repeat dose, a registered pharmacist can assist for peace of mind.
