Albendazole is an anthelmintic agent of the benzimidazole group which is an ideal broad-spectrum anthelmintic. Albendazole inhibits the polymerization of tubulin which damages the cytoplasmic microtubules, leading to impaired glucose uptake, depletion of glycogen stores, degenerative changes in the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria, and decreased ATP production. It also inhibits the enzyme fumarate reductase, which is a co-enzyme in many cellular oxidation-reduction reactions, resulting in no energy production and causing the immobilization and death of parasites.
