The Science of Parasite Control: How Albendazole Works

Cribendazole 2.5% utilizes the power of Albendazole, a potent member of the benzimidazole (1-BZ) class of anthelmintics. It works by targeting the parasites’ internal cellular structure. By inhibiting a protein called tubulin, it disrupts the parasites’ ability to absorb vital nutrients, effectively starving them. This leads to paralysis and death, after which the parasites are safely and naturally expelled from the animal’s body.

A Complete Spectrum of Efficacy

Cribendazole 2.5% is indicated for the treatment and control of mature and developing immature stages of a wide range of parasites in sheep and goats:

• Gastrointestinal Roundworms (Stomach & Gut Worms):
  • Barber’s Pole Worm: (Haemonchus contortus)
  • Brown Stomach Worm: (Ostertagia / Teladorsagia circumcincta)
  • Bankrupt Worm / Black Scour Worm: (Trichostrongylus spp., Cooperia spp.)
  • Nematodirus: (Nematodirus spp.)
• Lungworms:

CRITICAL: Use a properly calibrated drenching gun to ensure accurate dosing. Under-dosing can lead to ineffective treatment and contribute to anthelmintic resistance. Always estimate animal weight accurately.
