Description
Eldex-400 Tablets by Ellanjey is a potent, broad-spectrum anti-parasitic combination containing Albendazole I.P. 400 mg and Ivermectin. This dual-action formulation is designed to effectively eliminate a wide range of parasitic worms and ectoparasites from the body, including roundworms, hookworms, whipworms, threadworms (Strongyloides), and also shows efficacy against filarial parasites.
Key Benefits
-
Broad-Spectrum Coverage: Treats multiple intestinal worms (roundworm, hookworm, whipworm) and tissue parasites like Strongyloides in one dose.
-
Dual Mechanism of Action: Albendazole starves worms by blocking glucose uptake; Ivermectin paralyses and kills them via nerve/muscle chloride channels.
-
High Cure Rates: Superior efficacy for strongyloidiasis and mixed helminth infections compared to either drug alone.
-
Single-Day Therapy: Often requires only 1–2 doses, improving patient compliance over multi-day regimens.
