Medicinal Benefits:

Wormkut Syrup contains Albendazole. It is a broad-spectrum anthelmintic that acts against intestinal nematode and cestode infection. Wormkut Syrup is used in the treatment of several parasitic infections in children. It works by inhibiting tubulin polymerisation, causing metabolic disruption and energy depletion in the parasite, leading to immobilization. This eventually leads to the death of susceptible helminths and thus prevents the growth of parasitic infections.
