Same salt, different brand — what does that mean?

A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Zentel Tablet. The brand name, manufacturer, inactive ingredients and price can differ, and so can release form, so a substitute is not automatically interchangeable.

All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.

Please confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before switching brands — they will check that the strength and form match your prescription.

Composition of Zentel Tablet

Zentel Tablet contains Albendazole 400 mg. It belongs to the Benzimidazole anthelmintic class of medicines.

Uses of Zentel Tablet

Treatment of intestinal worm (helminth) infections such as ascariasis (roundworm), hookworm, pinworm (enterobiasis), whipworm (trichuriasis), strongyloidiasis, taeniasis (tapeworm). Also used for certain tissue infections like hydatid disease and neurocysticercosis under medical supervision.

Benefits of Zentel Tablet

In Worm infestation
Zentel kills or paralyses the worms in the gut so they are passed out, relieving the abdominal pain, itching and poor appetite they cause.
In Parasitic infection
Zentel clears the parasite responsible for the infection, relieving its symptoms and preventing it spreading to others.
In Amoebiasis
Zentel kills the amoeba causing dysentery and liver abscess, stopping the bloody diarrhoea and abdominal pain.
In Giardiasis
Zentel clears the giardia parasite behind persistent diarrhoea, bloating and foul-smelling stools.

How Zentel Tablet works

Albendazole is a broad-spectrum anthelmintic. It inhibits microtubule formation and glucose uptake in worms, leading to energy depletion and death of the parasite.

How to take Zentel Tablet

Tablet; take as prescribed by doctor. Commonly taken as a single dose for many intestinal worm infections; take with food (fatty meal improves absorption). For some infections, repeat dosing or multi-day courses may be needed. Swallow with water; may be chewed if advised.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause vomiting, abdominal cramps and nerve symptoms. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Zentel Tablet

Most side effects of Zentel are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

  • Nausea
  • abdominal pain
  • vomiting
  • diarrhea
  • headache
  • dizziness
  • increased liver enzymes
  • rash

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
