It is an anthelmintic containing: pyrantel (as pyrantel embonate), a pro-benzimidazole derivative, febantel, and a pyrazinoisoquinoline derivative and, praziquantel. It is effective against nematodes and cestodes. Praziquantel severely damages the tegument, thus disrupting the parasite’s metabolism and causing its death. Pyrantel acts as a cholinergic agonist. It causes spastic paralysis of nematodes by blocking their neuromuscular function at the motor plate. Febantel has an inhibitory action on the polymerization of tubulin into microtubules. The resulting structural and functional metabolic disorders deplete the parasite’s energy reserves, killing it within 2-3 days.
