About Unicarbazan Forte Tablet
Unicarbazan Forte Tablet belongs to a group of medicines called 'antiparasitic' used to treat particular worm or parasitic infections. Parasitism or parasitic infection is a condition in which one organism (the parasite) causes harm to its host or lives at the host's expense in some way. Millions of individuals are afflicted by parasites, which cause enormous suffering and death.
Unicarbazan Forte Tablet consists of two medicines: Diethylcarbamazine Citrate (antiparasitic) and Chlorpheniramine Maleate (antihistamines). Diethylcarbamazine Citrate paralyzes the parasitic worms by stopping them from interacting with the host cell, thereby killing it. On the other hand, Chlorpheniramine Maleate reduces the allergy symptoms characterized by increased white blood cells (eosinophils), sneezing, runny nose and watery eyes. Thus, Unicarbazan Forte Tablet prevents the growth of worms in the human body by killing microfilariae and some of the adult worms in the human intestine and reducing allergic symptoms caused by parasitic worms.

Some persons may experience itching, swelling of the face, especially near the eyes, tightness in the chest or throat, wheezing, sleepiness, and nervousness.

Medicinal Benefits
Unicarbazan Forte Tablet consists of Diethylcarbamazine Citrate and Chlorpheniramine Maleate as their medicinal constituents and is used to treat certain types of parasitic infections. Unicarbazan Forte Tablet is an antiparasitic medication that works by killing worms and inhibits the action of histamine (a natural chemical released by the body) responsible for causing allergic reactions in the body during parasite infection. Besides this, it also reduces the levels of eosinophil count (white blood cells), which increases during parasitic infection and thus controls breathlessness, cough, and cold associated with it.
