Fenbendazole is an anthelmintic belonging to the benzimidazole carbamates group. It acts by interfering in the energy metabolism of the nematode. The anthelmintic efficacy is based on inhibition of the polymerisation of tubulin to microtubuli. The anthelmintic affects both adult and immature stages of gastro-intestinal and respiratory nematodes.
Dogs and cats: For the treatment of dogs and cats infected with immature and mature stages of nematodes of the gastro-intestinal and respiratory tracts.
Adult dogs and cats: For the treatment of adult dogs and cats infected with gastro-intestinal nematodes and cestodes caused by Ascarid spp.(Toxocara canis, Toxocara cati, Toxascaris leonina), Ancylostoma spp., Trichuris spp., Uncinaria spp.,Taenia spp.
