Combantrin -1 Threadworm Tablets (Mebendazole)

What is Combantrin – Threadworm Tablets?

Combantrin – Threadworm Tablets contain Mebendazole, an antiparasitic medicine used to treat threadworm (pinworm) infections. Threadworms are common intestinal parasites that mainly affect children but can occur in adults as well. This medicine works effectively to eliminate the worms and help prevent reinfection when used correctly.

How Does It Work?

Mebendazole works by stopping the worms from absorbing glucose, which is essential for their survival. As a result, the worms lose energy, die, and are naturally expelled from the body through bowel movements.
