Medicinal Benefits:

V-Worm Oral Suspension belongs to a group of medicines called anthelmintic used to treat worm infections such as neurocysticercosis (infection caused by pork tapeworm) and cystic hydatid disease (infection caused by dog tapeworm). V-Worm Oral Suspension is also used to treat infections caused by roundworms, hookworms, threadworms, whipworms, pinworms, flukes, and other parasites. V-Worm Oral Suspension is a broad-spectrum anthelmintic drug which is highly effective against a wide range of intestinal helminths, including cestodes, nematodes, and trematodes. It is also effective against tissue helminth infections like cutaneous larva migrans (parasitic skin infections). V-Worm Oral Suspension exhibits ovicidal, larvicidal and vermicidal activity. V-Worm Oral Suspension inhibits tubulin polymerisation, which causes metabolic disruption and energy depletion in the parasite. This leads to the immobilisation of the parasite. Thereby, V-Worm Oral Suspension kills the susceptible helminth and treats the infection.
