A little more about Bendax

Not only intestinal individuals are subject to destruction, but also worms that were able to migrate from the digestive tract to other organs and systems. Albendazole equally successfully fights with adult individuals, larvae and eggs of parasites, thanks to the polymerization of tubulin. As a result of this reaction, the metabolic processes in the body of helminths are disrupted, without which their continued existence is impossible. Without energy resources, worms and protozoa die.

Macrogol 400 complements the action of albendazole. This component enhances intestinal peristalsis, increases the volume of feces due to the attraction of water, prevents the absorption of toxins and general poisoning of the body by the decay products of helminths. This mechanism of action helps to cleanse the human digestive tract of parasites that died as a result of the influence of albendazole.
