Fenbendazole is a new type of benzimidazole insecticide with broad spectrum, high efficiency and low toxicity. Fenbendazole has similar anti-insect spectrum with albendazole, but its effect is slightly stronger. It has high repellent activity against adult worms and larvae of gastrointestinal nematodes in animals, and also has good effect on reticulum nematode, lanceolata, fasciola and tapeworm. Fenbendazole is not only used in all kinds of animals, but also a special preparation for wild animals in foreign countries.
The solubility of fenbendazole is low, and it is rarely absorbed by animals when taken orally. Because of the little absorption, the prototype drug excreted by feces is 44% - 50%, and less than 1% is excreted by urine. After oral administration, the blood drug reached its peak in 8 to 12 hours, with a half-life of 10 hours, while it took 24 to 30 hours for cattle and sheep to reach its peak. After absorption of fenbendazole, most of the metabolites are formed in animals. For example, in ruminants, hydroxylation mainly takes place on the benzene ring, and some also take place in deethoxycarbonylation. A large number of metabolites are also formed in pigs. Even some studies have confirmed that these metabolites in sheep are secreted by bile and can undergo liver and intestinal circulation. For livestock and poultry nematode disease and tapeworm disease
Is Fenbendazole harmful to people?
Fenbendazole may not be harmful to humans after use. It is a kind of insect repellent. If the patient is allergic to the drug or uses it too much, it will produce allergic reaction.

The drug has a good effect on insect repellent and does not have much stimulation to the stomach. After using the drug, it is necessary to drink a lot of water to accelerate the metabolism of the body.
Is Fenbendazole Anti-cancer Really?
The claim that fenbendazole can fight cancer is not true. Fenbendazole is a low-toxic chemical, which is mainly used to expel parasites in the gastrointestinal tract. However, there is no relevant research evidence that it can fight cancer.
The occurrence of cancer is the result of multiple factors, which has the characteristics of rapid growth and strong invasion. So for cancer patients, it has been found that active treatment measures should be taken. According to the different conditions of patients, surgical treatment, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and targeted treatment can be selected.
For patients with advanced cancer, although it is unlikely to be cured, active treatment can improve their quality of life and prolong their survival time. Remember not to abuse folk prescription.
