Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics
The mechanism of action of the anthelminthic drug in the intestinal tract is associated with the effect of inhibiting the polymerization of beta-tubulin, which leads to the destruction of cell channels, suppresses the release of glucose, changes the course of processes in the body of the worm, blocks the transport function of cells, causing the death of helminths. The drug is effective against larval forms of echinococcus cestodes and nematodes.
After oral administration, the drug is poorly absorbed in the stomach and intestines and is not detected in the blood plasma unchanged. Bioavailability is approximately 30%. Fatty foods increase absorption and maximum plasma concentration by five times. Albendazole is transformed in the liver to sulfoxide, which also has a negative effect on worms. This metabolite binds to plasma proteins up to 70%, reaches its maximum concentration after 2-5 hours, and is distributed throughout the body.
The action of albendazole and its secondary metabolite sulfone begins after 8-12 hours and is excreted in the urine. The excretion of albendazole and its metabolites does not change in patients with renal impairment. With liver dysfunction, bioavailability increases, maximum concentration is reached twice as quickly, and the half-life is prolonged. The active substance serves as an inducer of enzymes of the cytochrome system and accelerates the metabolism of other drugs.
Indications for use
According to the instructions for use, Nemozol has the following indications for which it can be prescribed:
- treatment of nematodes, ascariasis, hookworm disease, necatorosis, trichocephalosis;
- strongyloidiasis;
- mixed helminthic infestations;
- treatment of helminthiases;
- neurocysticercosis;
- treatment of enterobiasis;
- toxocariasis;
- echinococcosis of the liver, lungs, peritoneum;
- giardiasis;
- an adjuvant in the surgical removal of cysts caused by the growth of echinococcus to kill intestinal parasites.
Nemozol for prevention
If one of the family members is found to be infected with helminths, then others need to take Nemozol for prevention, so as not to catch worms. Prophylactic dosage depends on the type of helminthic infestation. The suspension is taken in 10-20 ml doses over two days, tablets are taken in a single dose of 200-400 mg. Due to the high toxicity of the drug, prevention of helminthic infestation is carried out no more often than once every two months. The medicine in the form of a suspension can be taken by children under two years of age; tablets are prescribed only from the age of three.
Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics
Albendazole contained in Nemozole is an antiparasitic agent .
The main mechanism of action of the substance is associated with its ability to inhibit the polymerization of the beta-tubulin protein.
This leads to the fact that the activity of the cytoplasmic microtubular system in the cells of the intestinal tract of helminths is disrupted; the course of biochemical processes in the organisms of parasites changes; in the muscle cells of nematodes, the movement of secretory granules and other organelles is blocked.
The result of such exposure is the death of parasites.
It is most effective against the larvae of tapeworms (pork tapeworm and echinococcus), as well as against the roundworms Strongyloides stercolatis (intestinal eel).
Pharmacokinetics
The substance is poorly absorbed from the digestive tract and is not found in the plasma unchanged. Characterized by low bioavailability (approximately 30%).
An increase in absorption and Cmax (5 times) is facilitated by taking the drug simultaneously with fatty foods.
The substance quickly undergoes biotransformation in the liver. The primary metabolite (M1) is albendazole sulfoxide, which also has anthelmintic activity .
TCmax M1 varies from 2 to 5 hours. About 70% of albendazole sulfoxide is bound to plasma proteins. The substance is almost completely distributed throughout the body; determined in the liver, bile, urine, cystic fluid and cyst wall, cerebrospinal fluid.
In the liver, M1 is converted to albendazole sulfone (M2) and other oxidized products. T1/2 M1 - from 8 to 12 hours. Excreted by the kidneys in the form of various metabolic products.
If renal function is impaired, the excretion of albendazole and M1 does not change.
With impaired liver function, the bioavailability of the substance and Cmax M1 increase (2 times), and T1/2 also lengthens.
Albendazole increases the activity of microsomal enzymes of the CYP system; accelerates the metabolism of many drugs.
Pharmacological properties of the drug Nemozol™
Pharmacodynamics. Albendazole is a broad-spectrum anthelmintic agent that is also active against pathogenic protozoa. Acts on intestinal and tissue forms of parasites; active against eggs, larvae and adult helminths. The antihelminthic effect of the drug is due to inhibition of tubulin polymerization, which leads to metabolic disturbances and death of the helminth. Albendazole is active against intestinal parasites, including nematodes (Ascaris lumbricoides, Triсhiurus triсhiura, Enterobius vermicularis, Ancylostoma duodenale, Necator americanus, Strongiloides stercoralis, Cutaneous Larva Migrans) , cestodes (Hymenolepsis nana, Taenia solium, Taenia saginata) , trematodes ( Opisthorhis viverrini, Clonorchis sinensis) , protozoa ( Giardia lamblia (intestinalis and duodenalis) . Albendazole is effective against tissue parasites, including cystic echinococcosis and alveolar echinococcosis, caused by invasion of Echinococcus granulosus and Echinococcus multilocularis , respectively. The drug is also effective in the treatment of neurocysticercosis, caused by nogo invasion larvae of the pork tapeworm T. solium, capillariasis caused by invasion of Gnatostoma spinigerum . Albendazole destroys cysts or significantly reduces their size in patients with cysts of granular echinococcus. Pharmacokinetics. After oral administration, the drug is poorly absorbed (up to 5%) in the gastrointestinal tract. Simultaneous use of fatty foods approx. increases drug absorption 5 times. Albendazole is 70% bound to blood plasma proteins and is freely distributed in the body; determined in urine, bile, liver, cyst wall and cyst fluid, CSF. Albendazole sulfoxide is rapidly converted in the liver to albendazole sulfone (a secondary metabolite) and other oxidized products. The half-life of albendazole sulfoxide from blood plasma lasts 8–12 hours. Albendazole sulfoxide and other metabolites are excreted primarily in the bile, and only a small amount is excreted in the urine. Since the renal excretion of albendazole and its primary metabolite, albendazole sulfoxide, is insignificant, clearance in patients with impaired renal function does not change. In patients with biliary obstruction, systemic bioavailability may be increased and the half-life of albendazole sulfoxide may be prolonged.
Indications for use
The drug is used to treat:
- nematodes ( hookworm , ascariasis , trichuriasis , necatoriasis , enterobiasis );
- strongyloidiasis;
- toxocariasis;
- giardiasis;

- echinococcosis of the peritoneum , lungs and liver, the causative agent of which is the larvae of the tapeworm echinococcus;
- mixed helminthic infestations.
It is also advisable to use the drug as an addition to the main treatment during surgical interventions to remove echinococcal cysts.
Side effects
Side effects of the drug may manifest themselves as:
- liver dysfunction , in which there is an increase (weak/moderate)
- transaminase activity;

From: Lyudmila S. ( [email protected] )
To: Administration Noparasites.ru
Not long ago my health condition worsened. I began to feel constant fatigue, headaches, laziness and some kind of endless apathy appeared. Problems also appeared with the gastrointestinal tract: bloating, diarrhea, pain and bad breath.
I thought it was because of the hard work and hoped that it would go away on its own. But every day I felt worse. The doctors couldn’t really say anything either. Everything seems to be normal, but I feel like my body is not healthy.
I decided to go to a private clinic. Here I was advised, in addition to general tests, to get tested for parasites. So in one of the tests they found parasites in me. According to doctors, these were worms, which 90% of people have and almost everyone is infected, to a greater or lesser extent.
I was prescribed a course of antiparasitic medications. But it didn’t give me any results. A week later, a friend sent me a link to an article where some parasitologist shared real tips on fighting parasites. This article literally saved my life. I followed all the advice that was there and after a couple of days I felt much better!
Digestion improved, headaches went away and the vital energy that I so lacked appeared. To be sure, I took the tests again and no parasites were found!

Reviews of Nemozole
Reviews from doctors about the drug Nemozol allow us to conclude that this medicine for worms is one of the best today. The drug disrupts the flow of biochemical processes in the body of parasites, causes destruction of their cell membranes and, as a result, leads to the death of helminths.
The effect of the drug applies to tapeworm larvae (armed, canine), Giardia, whipworm, pinworms, opisthorchia, roundworm, necator americanus, intestinal eels, microsporidia, toxocara. Nemozol is also effective for polyhelminthiasis.
The manufacturer produces it in the form of tablets and suspensions: tablets are the optimal dosage form for adults, a suspension is prescribed for children over 12 months of age.
Most people leave good reviews about Nemozole on forums. Since helminthic infestations most often occur in childhood, these are mainly reviews of Nemozol for children. Almost all mothers note the speed of the drug and its effectiveness, however, they emphasize that some patients may experience side effects.
Nemozol: how worms come out after using the drug
As already mentioned, the effectiveness of Nemozol is based on its destructive effect on the neuromuscular system of parasites, which causes disruption of their vital functions and, ultimately, paralysis. How do worms come out after nemozol? This question interests many, especially parents who have to treat helminthiases in their children.
After nemosol, helminths are no longer able to attach themselves to the intestinal walls, and due to intestinal peristalsis, they are excreted naturally along with feces in a digested, semi-digested, and sometimes whole form.
