<p data-start="58" data-end="658">Mebendazole is a widely used anthelmintic medication prescribed to treat several intestinal worm infections in humans. It works by blocking the worms&rsquo; ability to absorb glucose, which gradually weakens and kills them. The dead worms are then eliminated naturally through the stool.Mebendazole 100mg is commonly used for roundworm (ascariasis), whipworm (trichuriasis), hookworm infections, and sometimes for treating pinworm (enterobiasis). In areas where multiple worm infections occur together, mebendazole is often preferred because it is effective against a broad range of parasites. The medicine is usually taken by mouth, with or without food. For some infections, a single dose is enough, while others require taking the tablet twice daily for three days. Chewable tablets are also available, especially useful for children who cannot swallow whole tablets. Even though symptoms may improve quickly, completing the prescribed course helps ensure all parasites are fully cleared. Mebendazole is generally well tolerated, with mild side effects such as stomach pain, nausea, or diarrhea. It should be used cautiously in pregnant individuals, and only under medical advice. Good hygiene practices&mdash;such as washing hands, trimming nails, and proper food handling&mdash;are important to prevent reinfection and support successful treatment.
