Mebendazole is a broad-spectrum anthelmintic medication primarily used to treat intestinal worm infections such as pinworms, roundworms, whipworms, and hookworms. It works by disrupting the parasites' ability to absorb nutrients, ultimately leading to their elimination. Unlike Fenbendazole, which remains largely in the gut, Mebendazole crosses the blood-brain barrier, making it a subject of interest in neurological and oncological research.
Beyond its primary use, Mebendazole has shown promise in off-label applications, including potential anticancer properties and the treatment of certain cystic and hydatid diseases. Studies suggest that its ability to penetrate the central nervous system (CNS) may enhance its effectiveness in treating parasitic infections affecting the brain and even inhibiting tumor growth in some brain cancers. With its strong safety profile, broad utility, and systemic action, Mebendazole remains a versatile and trusted medication worldwide.
