I've been to several doctors with no results helping for parasites so I went and got a mail-order prescription filled for Albenza from Combitic Global. The package came in and I received albendazole tablets ip with the brand name zenzole. They are peach and oblong tablets with a score line to split but has no markings. I'm at my wits end for help and not sure what to do, so frustrated. ## Hi Lori, sorry to hear about what you've been dealing with. So it sounds like you got your prescription filled from a manufacturer in India which should TECHNICALLY contain the same active ingredient as a domestic drug. While I can't give you medical advice I have heard of individuals being just fine with generic equivalents from out of the country. The challenge, however, is that forei...

How long does Albendazole remain in your system? ## The typical half-life for Albendazole is usually 8 to 12 hours and it usually takes 5 to 6 half-lives for a medication to fully process out of the body, so you're looking at anywhere from 40 to 72 hours. ## How dangerous is it if I conceived during the time I took this medication? Whats is the worst case in the matter? ## Hello Sir/Ma'am, My wife took albendazole (1 tablet 400mg) on 13th of January 2014 and we did a pregnancy check which was positive about 5-6 days later.

I tool this medication for one does. 10 days later I started to get pimples on my lips and around my mouth. My lips and around the mouth are covered with these sores. Is this a side effect? I never had these before and I do not have oral herpes. ## Hello, SChan! How are you? Are you certain you don't have oral herpes, as in, has one of these lesions actually been cultured by your doctor to check? A herpes simplex virus can lie dormant in the body for many years, then some medications, including this one, can suddenly wake it up and cause an outbreak. And for anyone worried, there is nothing to be ashamed of, if you have oral herpes. It just happens and, by the time we are elderly, over 85% of the population is infected with it, it's just that many don't break out in the sore...

My wife started taking Albendazole on the 13th of March 2017. Now that she is pregnant, will this medication have any impact on our upcoming baby? ## Risk when taking it during pregnancy has not been ruled out according to U.S. FDA reports. Other side effects may include nausea, dizziness, and stomach pain. Is she on any other medications? When is she due?

I received a pkg today its says albendazole tab ip. The zenlzole tablets then says albendazole ip 400mg orange oblong with no marking. Pkg from combitic global. ## @lori, Combitic Global in my opinion appears to be a legitimate drug manufacturer; and are even reputed as one of the leading manufacturers in India. The only gray area I see is based on where or how you got your prescription filled (i.e. mail-order v.s. a licensed pharmacy)... The latter doesn't dispense fake medication, albeit sometimes ineffective depending on different brands/generics. However, these days scammers have resorted to making counterfeits with pill presses they find on the internet and try to pass it off as something real. Your retailer (or whomever filled your Rx) could fall under either category. That sa...

Hi, i m 29th week pregnant and my doctore given a tablet of albendazole 400. Is it safe for me and my baby? Why she priscribe dis tablet in my pregnancy i heard it is harmful for baby. Is it? ## Hello, Arzy! How are you? This medication is most commonly used to treat parisitic infestations. While it isn't the preferred choice to take during pregnancy, if can be used, if other options aren't available and the doctor is monitoring you regularly for any possible problems. The U.S. FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and stomach pain. Is there anything else I can help with?

supposed to be sunset yellow..are big oblong with rounded edges, light peach in color. no markings except a place to break them. came in silver punch individual packaging all placed in a baggy. says manufactured by specturm, a division of biochem from india. No other markings on them. ## Hi Jeannie, The only conclusion I can come to in regards to the difference in color, is that the manufacturer used different inactive ingredients as opposed to other manufacturers of Albendazole. Did you purchase these pills from a trusted source? ## That is actual what i received today (from combitic global). Did this work for you ?

I have taken this tablet for past three months . My problem was under control by then. So I stopped eating the tablet..I already have hydroid cyst in the right lobe of the liver.I have consulted the gastroentology. The treatment for dis cyst given by the doctor was albendazole tablet for three months. Now there is no problem of the cyst. I have a doubt whether there is a connection between diarrhoea and the cyst. Again i have the diarrhoea problem. Mucus is also released now. What do I do now? Is there a permanent solution for my problem?

What is Morgellons disease anf why has the Lord allowed it to infest my body with no cure? ## Hello, Brooke! How are you doing? Well, Morgellons is actually not a physical disease/illness, but a rather a mental issue. People that suffer from it believe that their bodies are infested with some type of parasite, even though medical evaluations have proven that no parasites are present. What type of doctor have you been working with? ## Hi Brooke, regardless what anybody tells you Morgellons is a real disease and you are not delusional. This is definitely a manmade infection and not the work of the Lord. Trust me when I say that the cause and the ensuing coverup will all be revealed. Keep your faith and try to stay strong because judgement day is coming for many people soon. All involved i...
