t is used as anthelmintic against most nematodes and cestodes.

Benzimidazoles bind to b-tubulin, which in turn prevents its dimerization with a-tubulin and the polymerization of tubulin oligomers into microtubules. Microtubules are essential structural units of many organelles and are necessary for numerous processes, including protein assembly, and energy metabolism. Mammals also rely on tubulin for cellular metabolism but BZDs have a higher affinity for nematode tubulin at normal body temperature range of mammals.
