Albendazole (SKF-62979) is an orally active and broad-spectrum parasiticide with high effectiveness and low host toxicity, is used for the research of gastrointestinal parasites in humans and animals. Albendazole induces apoptosis and autophagy in cancer cells. Albendazole also inhibits tubulin polymerization and HIF-1α, VEGF expression, has antioxidant activity, and inhibits the glycolytic process in cancer cells
Albendazole is a drug used to treat infections caused by parasites. It can be given to treat a rare brain infection (neurocysticercosis) or it can be given to treat a parasitic infection that causes important diarrhea (microsporidiosis).
