<h3>Ivermectin/albendazole</h3>
When co-administered, ivermectin and albendazole act in synergy.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:71" href="#fn:71">71</a> Ivermectin targets the parasite's nervous and muscular systems, causing paralysis, while albendazole disrupts the parasite's metabolism and energy production.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:72" href="#fn:72">72</a> This dual approach immobilizes and kills the parasite and improves the treatment's effectiveness.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:73" href="#fn:73">73</a>
In January 2025, the <a href="/facts/Committee_for_Medicinal_Products_for_Human_Use/yCkJTISe">Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use</a> (CHMP) of the <a href="/facts/European_Medicines_Agency/h9FTtCYc">European Medicines Agency</a> (EMA) adopted a positive scientific opinion for ivermectin/albendazole for the treatment of infections caused by several types of worm parasites including lymphatic filariasis, a neglected tropical disease.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:74" href="#fn:74">74</a> Ivermectin/albendazole is <a href="/facts/Indicated/DLdGwxDY">indicated</a> for use in people aged five years of age or older, for the treatment of soil-transmitted helminth infections, caused by different types of intestinal parasitic worms, which are spread through soil contaminated by human feces in areas with poor sanitation.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:75" href="#fn:75">75</a> Among the worms responsible for these diseases are hookworms (Ancylostoma duodenale, Necator americanus), roundworms (<a href="/facts/Ascaris_lumbricoides/CJGz5JIm">Ascaris lumbricoides</a>), whipworms (<a href="/facts/Trichuris_trichiura/AEISzWkd">Trichuris trichiura</a>) and a roundworm called <a href="/facts/Strongyloides_stercoralis/9VNkp4Sj">Strongyloides stercoralis</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:76" href="#fn:76">76</a> Ivermectin/albendazole is also indicated for the treatment of microfilaraemia (the presence of worm larvae in the blood) in people with lymphatic filariasis.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:77" href="#fn:77">77</a> Lymphatic filariasis is a neglected tropical disease commonly known as elephantiasis, which impairs the lymphatic system and can lead to the abnormal enlargement of body parts, causing pain, severe disability and social stigma.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:78" href="#fn:78">78</a> Ivermectin/albendazole is indicated for the treatment of cases of lymphatic filariasis caused by <a href="/facts/Wuchereria_bancrofti/lyjnk9Fr">Wuchereria bancrofti</a>, a parasite which is responsible for 90% of cases worldwide.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:79" href="#fn:79">79</a>

<h2 id="side-effects">Side effects</h2>

The most common side effects of albendazole are experienced by over 10% of people and include <a href="/facts/Headache/mdmmC9DP">headache</a> and abnormal liver function.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:81" href="#fn:81">81</a> Elevation of <a href="/facts/Liver_enzymes/IGuSa6Hn">liver enzymes</a> occurs in 16% of patients receiving treatment specifically for hydatid disease and goes away when treatment ends.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:82" href="#fn:82">82</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:83" href="#fn:83">83</a> Liver enzymes usually increase to two to four times the normal levels (a mild to moderate increase).<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:84" href="#fn:84">84</a> An estimated 1–10% of people experience <a href="/facts/Abdominal_pain/aF6gPB0G">abdominal pain</a>, <a href="/facts/Nausea/dyhkcbeD">nausea</a> or <a href="/facts/Vomiting/R2vQkHqV">vomiting</a>, <a href="/facts/Dizziness/eI8UvmS5">dizziness</a> or <a href="/facts/Vertigo/2RDjIkuh">vertigo</a>, increased <a href="/facts/Intracranial_pressure/GVyhAWpH">intracranial pressure</a>, meningeal signs, temporary <a href="/facts/Hair_loss/uEPKUafl">hair loss</a>, and <a href="/facts/Fever/waVxR2Ac">fever</a>. The headache, nausea, and vomiting are thought to be caused by the sudden destruction of <a href="/facts/Cysticercus/c8mMdkYI">cysticerci</a> (tapeworm larvae), which causes acute inflammation.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:85" href="#fn:85">85</a> Fewer than 1% of people get <a href="/facts/Hypersensitivity/j2AWmqCD">hypersensitivity</a> reactions such as rashes and hives, <a href="/facts/Leukopenia/LB1Avvby">leukopenias</a> (drop in white blood cell levels) such as <a href="/facts/Agranulocytosis/3AP5MDpD">agranulocytosis</a> and <a href="/facts/Granulocytopenia/zsE3ldLb">granulocytopenia</a>, <a href="/facts/Thrombocytopenia/qMy4o0Rz">thrombocytopenia</a> (reduced platelet count), <a href="/facts/Pancytopenia/tSPwHIrU">pancytopenia</a> (drop in white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets), <a href="/facts/Hepatitis/FIN87T5e">hepatitis</a>, acute <a href="/facts/Liver_failure/AB5ocI30">liver failure</a>, <a href="/facts/Acute_kidney_injury/dYg8l5P8">acute kidney injury</a>, irreversible <a href="/facts/Bone_marrow_suppression/NEdoL9nj">bone marrow suppression</a>, and <a href="/facts/Aplastic_anemia/8VMHLI6J">aplastic anemia</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:86" href="#fn:86">86</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:87" href="#fn:87">87</a>
Side effects can be different when treating for hydatid disease versus neurocysticercosis: for example, those being treated for the former are more likely to experience elevated liver enzymes and abdominal pain, while those being treated for the latter are more likely to experience headache.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:88" href="#fn:88">88</a> Treating hydatid disease can also unmask undiagnosed neurocysticercosis.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:89" href="#fn:89">89</a> People receiving albendazole for the treatment of neurocysticercosis can have neurological side effects such as <a href="/facts/Seizure/zuIrQyze">seizures</a>, increased intracranial pressure, and <a href="/facts/Focal_neurologic_signs/Plk858MN">focal signs</a> caused by the inflammatory reaction that occurs when parasites in the brain are killed. Steroids and anticonvulsants are often given with albendazole when treating neurocysticercosis to avoid these effects.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:90" href="#fn:90">90</a> Those being treated for retinal neurocysticercosis can face <a href="/facts/Retina/v0ISNX2S">retinal</a> damage if they are not first checked for ocular cysticeri, since changes to existing lesions in the eye by albendazole can cause permanent blindness.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:91" href="#fn:91">91</a>

<h3>Pregnancy</h3>
Albendazole is a <a href="/facts/Pregnancy_category/v7xjF2pH">pregnancy class</a> D drug in Australia. It is contraindicated in the first trimester of pregnancy, and should be avoided up to one month before conception. While studies in pregnant rats and rabbits have shown albendazole to be <a href="/facts/Teratology/j4BN6lsB">teratogenic</a>,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:92" href="#fn:92">92</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:93" href="#fn:93">93</a> albendazole has been found to be safe in humans during the second and third trimesters.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:94" href="#fn:94">94</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:95" href="#fn:95">95</a> It can, however, possibly cause infantile <a href="/facts/Dermatitis/JwlyQBa2">eczema</a> when given during pregnancy.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:96" href="#fn:96">96</a>
In pregnant dogs, albendazole use has led to puppies with reduced weight and with <a href="/facts/Cleft_lip_and_cleft_palate/CoLE8Wbu">cleft palates</a>. Birds have lower rates of laying eggs and hatching when given albendazole.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:97" href="#fn:97">97</a>
Albendazole sulfoxide is secreted into breast milk at around 1.5% of the maternal dose, though oral absorption is poor enough that it is unlikely to affect nursing infants.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:98" href="#fn:98">98</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:99" href="#fn:99">99</a>

<h2 id="overdose">Overdose</h2>
Because of its low solubility, albendazole often cannot be absorbed in high enough quantities to be toxic.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:100" href="#fn:100">100</a> The oral <a href="/facts/Median_lethal_dose/PSTer8Wv">LD50</a> of albendazole in rats was found to be 2,500 mg/kg.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:101" href="#fn:101">101</a> It takes 20 times the normal dose to kill a sheep, and 30 times the normal dose to kill cattle.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:102" href="#fn:102">102</a> Overdose affects the liver, testicles, and <a href="/facts/Gastrointestinal_tract/nK2zwqBS">gastrointestinal tract</a> (GI tract) the most. It can manifest with lethargy, loss of appetite, vomiting, diarrhea, intestinal cramps, dizziness, convulsions, and sleepiness.[medical citation needed] There is no specified antidote.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:103" href="#fn:103">103</a>

<h2 id="pharmacology">Pharmacology</h2>

<h3>Mechanism of action</h3>

As a <a href="/facts/Vermicide/2p02KN0X">vermicide</a>, albendazole causes degenerative alterations in the intestinal cells of the worm by binding to the <a href="/facts/Colchicine/3zeJ8mkE">colchicine</a>-sensitive site of <a href="/facts/Tubulin/j4Bk2wcL">β-tubulin</a>, thus inhibiting its polymerization or assembly into <a href="/facts/Microtubule/ENL1TxSe">microtubules</a> (it binds much better to the β-tubulin of parasites than that of mammals).<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:118" href="#fn:118">118</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:119" href="#fn:119">119</a> Albendazole leads to impaired uptake of glucose by the larval and adult stages of the susceptible parasites, and depletes their <a href="/facts/Glycogen/kWa8fPFE">glycogen</a> stores. Albendazole also prevents the formation of <a href="/facts/Spindle_fiber/FMFd1GM5">spindle fibers</a> needed for cell division, which in turn blocks egg production and development; existing eggs are prevented from hatching.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:120" href="#fn:120">120</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:121" href="#fn:121">121</a> Cell motility, maintenance of cell shape, and intracellular transport are also disrupted.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:122" href="#fn:122">122</a> At higher concentrations, it disrupts the helminths' metabolic pathways by inhibiting metabolic enzymes such as <a href="/facts/Malate_dehydrogenase/ku0kofwa">malate dehydrogenase</a> and <a href="/facts/Fumarate_reductase/lrVmt21S">fumarate reductase</a>, with inhibition of the latter leading to less energy produced by the <a href="/facts/Krebs_cycle/EGJL9NXP">Krebs cycle</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:123" href="#fn:123">123</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:124" href="#fn:124">124</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:125" href="#fn:125">125</a> Due to diminished ATP production, the parasite is immobilized and eventually dies.
Some parasites have evolved some resistance to albendazole by having a different set of amino acids constitute β-tubulin, decreasing the <a href="/facts/Binding_affinity/44QLL4eU">binding affinity</a> of albendazole.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:126" href="#fn:126">126</a> Some parasites (especially filarial nematodes) live in <a href="/facts/Symbiosis/MrBArRGa">symbiosis</a> with <a href="/facts/Wolbachia/trqJvTHu">Wolbachia</a>, a type of <a href="/facts/Intracellular_parasite/SjsmCTNr">intracellular parasite</a> <a href="/facts/Bacteria/wC8xSCsU">bacteria</a>. In such cases the Wolbachia are necessary to the survival of the parasitic worms.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:127" href="#fn:127">127</a> Elimination of Wolbachia from these filarial nematodes generally results in either death or sterility of the host nematode.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:128" href="#fn:128">128</a>

<h3>Pharmacokinetics</h3>
To target intestinal parasites, which is the most common indication for prescription, albendazole is taken on an empty stomach to stay within the gut.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:129" href="#fn:129">129</a>
Oral absorption of albendazole varies among species, with 1–5% of the drug being successfully absorbed in humans, 20–30% in rats, and 50% in cattle.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:130" href="#fn:130">130</a>
The absorption also largely depends on <a href="/facts/Gastric_acid/btVCyhYH">gastric pH</a>. People have varying levels of gastric pHs on empty stomachs, and thus absorption from one person to another can vary wildly when taken without food.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:131" href="#fn:131">131</a> Generally, the absorption in the GI tract is poor due to albendazole's low solubility in water.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:132" href="#fn:132">132</a> It is, however, better absorbed than other benzimidazole carbamates.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:133" href="#fn:133">133</a> Food stimulates gastric acid secretion, lowering the pH and making albendazole more soluble and thus more easily absorbed.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:134" href="#fn:134">134</a> Oral absorption is especially increased with a fatty meal, as albendazole dissolves better in lipids, allowing it to cross the lipid barrier created by the <a href="/facts/Mucous_membrane/oIw0vyel">mucus surface</a> of the GI tract.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:135" href="#fn:135">135</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:136" href="#fn:136">136</a>
Absorption is also affected by how much of the albendazole is degraded within the small intestine by metabolic enzymes in the villi.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:137" href="#fn:137">137</a>

The pharmacokinetics of albendazole differ slightly between men and women: women have a lower oral <a href="/facts/Clearance_(pharmacology)/RqI64paT">clearance</a> and <a href="/facts/Volume_of_distribution/64B8XegG">volume of distribution</a>, while men have a lower serum peak concentration.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:138" href="#fn:138">138</a>
Albendazole undergoes very fast <a href="/facts/First-pass_metabolism/jfDsbq7S">first-pass metabolism</a> in all species, such that the unchanged drug is undetectable in plasma.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:139" href="#fn:139">139</a> Most of it is oxidized into albendazole sulfoxide (also known as ricobendazole and albendazole oxide<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:140" href="#fn:140">140</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:141" href="#fn:141">141</a>) in the liver by <a href="/facts/Cytochrome_P450_oxidase/alxusFD0">cytochrome P450 oxidases</a> (CYPs) and a <a href="/facts/Flavin-containing_monooxygenase/C2nIX3MI">flavin-containing monooxygenase</a> (FMO),<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:142" href="#fn:142">142</a> which was discovered later.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:143" href="#fn:143">143</a> In humans, the cytochrome P450 oxidases are thought to include <a href="/facts/CYP3A4/MqD09gEj">CYP3A4</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:144" href="#fn:144">144</a> and <a href="/facts/CYP1A1/IIjwG4qA">CYP1A1</a>,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:145" href="#fn:145">145</a> while those in the rats are thought to be CYP2C6 and CYP2A1.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:146" href="#fn:146">146</a>
Oxidation to albendazole sulfoxide by FMO produces R(+) <a href="/facts/Enantiomer/wjPv5J3y">enantiomers</a>, while oxidation the cytochromes and by some enzymes in the gut epithelium produce S(−). Different species produce the R(+) and S(−) enantiomers in different quantities; humans, dogs, and most other species<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:147" href="#fn:147">147</a> produce the R(+) enantiomer more (with the human AUC ratio being 80:20).<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:148" href="#fn:148">148</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:149" href="#fn:149">149</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:150" href="#fn:150">150</a> Compared to the S(−) enantiomer, the R(+) has greater pharmacological activity, lasts longer in the bloodstream, is found in higher concentrations in the infected host tissues, and is found in higher concentrations within the parasites themselves.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:151" href="#fn:151">151</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:152" href="#fn:152">152</a> Some albendazole is also converted to hydroxyalbendazole, mainly by <a href="/facts/CYP2J2/V7wm3Ccr">CYP2J2</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:153" href="#fn:153">153</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:154" href="#fn:154">154</a>
For systemic parasites, albendazole acts as a <a href="/facts/Prodrug/cg0GNhH0">prodrug</a>, while albendazole sulfoxide reaches systemic circulation and acts as the real antihelminthic.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:155" href="#fn:155">155</a> Albendazole sulfoxide is able to cross the <a href="/facts/Blood%E2%80%93brain_barrier/xYzvVwdu">blood–brain barrier</a> and enter the <a href="/facts/Cerebrospinal_fluid/tcWG7hhv">cerebrospinal fluid</a> at 43% of plasma concentrations; its ability to enter the central nervous system allows it to treat neurocysticercosis.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:156" href="#fn:156">156</a>
Albendazole sulfoxide is converted to the inactive albendazole sulfone by cytochrome P450 oxidases, thought to include CYP3A4<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:157" href="#fn:157">157</a> or <a href="/facts/CYP2C/alxusFD0">CYP2C</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:158" href="#fn:158">158</a> Other inactive metabolites include: 2-aminosulfone, ω-hydroxysulfone, and β-hydroxysulfone.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:159" href="#fn:159">159</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:160" href="#fn:160">160</a> The major final metabolites that are excreted by humans are:<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:161" href="#fn:161">161</a>

<ul><li>methyl [5-(propylsulfonyl-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)] carbamate,</li>
<li>methyl [6-hydroxy 5-(n-propylsulfonyl)-1H-benzimidazole-2-yl)] carbamate,</li>
<li>methyl [5-(n-propylsulfinyl)-1H-benzimidazole-2-yl)] carbamate,</li>
<li>5-(n-propylsulfonyl)-1H-benzimidazole-2-yl amine, and</li>
<li>5-(n-propysulfinyl)-1H-benzimidazole-2-yl amine.</li></ul>
There are also some minor hydroxylated sulfated or glucuronidated derivatives.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:162" href="#fn:162">162</a> No unchanged albendazole is excreted, as it is metabolized too quickly.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:163" href="#fn:163">163</a>
In humans, the metabolites are excreted mostly in bile, with only a small amount being excreted in urine (less than 1%) and feces.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:164" href="#fn:164">164</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:165" href="#fn:165">165</a> In ruminants, 60–70% of the metabolites are excreted in urine.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:166" href="#fn:166">166</a>
Like all benzimidazoles, albendazole has no residual effect, and thus protects poorly against reinfestations.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:167" href="#fn:167">167</a>

<h2 id="history">History</h2>
Albendazole, patented in 1975, was invented by Robert J. Gyurik and Vassilios J.

<h3>Economics</h3>
The pharmaceutical company Amedra increased the price after purchasing the rights to the drug, instead of lowering it as generics are predicted to do, drawing criticism from patients' rights advocates.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:172" href="#fn:172">172</a>
In 2013, <a href="/facts/GlaxoSmithKline/NrnnxFNW">GlaxoSmithKline</a> donated 763 million albendazole tablets for the treatment and prevention of parasitic infections in developing countries, bringing the total to over 4 billion tablets donated since 1998.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:173" href="#fn:173">173</a>

<h3>Brand names</h3>
Brand names include: Albenza,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:174" href="#fn:174">174</a> Alworm, Andazol, Eskazole, Noworm, Zentel, Alben-G, ABZ, Cidazole, Wormnil etc.

<h2 id="research">Research</h2>
Albendazole and related compounds or metabolites like albendazole sulfone (ALB-SO2) exhibit antibacterial effects via an unknown, possibly <a href="/facts/FtsZ/tKkb9buQ">FtsZ</a>-related, mechanism. It inhibits division of <a href="/facts/Wolbachia/trqJvTHu">Wolbachia</a> and <a href="/facts/Mycobacterium_tuberculosis/cbRjnhIQ">Mycobacterium tuberculosis</a>, turning them into a long "filament" shape as they grow and fail to <a href="/facts/Binary_fission/9Ed5vUr6">divide</a>. Since Brugia malayi relies on symbiotic Wolbachia, this would mean that albendazole is targeting both the worm and its essential symbioant.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:175" href="#fn:175">175</a>

Albendazole has been used as an antihelminthic and for control of flukes in a variety of animal species, including cattle, sheep, goats, swine, camels, dogs, cats, elephants, poultry, and others.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:204" href="#fn:204">204</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:205" href="#fn:205">205</a> Side effects include anorexia in dogs and lethargy, depression, and anorexia in cats,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:206" href="#fn:206">206</a> with more than 10% of dogs and cats having anorexia.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:207" href="#fn:207">207</a> Of dogs and cats, 1–10% experience elevated liver enzymes, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Less than 1% experience neutropenia or aplastic anemia, though these require a use of at least 5 days.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:208" href="#fn:208">208</a> While it is also associated with bone marrow suppression and toxicity in cats and dogs at high doses, albendazole has a higher margin of safety in other species.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:209" href="#fn:209">209</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:210" href="#fn:210">210</a> Thus, it is usually only prescribed in cats and dogs when an infection is present that is resistant to the commonly prescribed <a href="/facts/Metronidazole/pY5K5twk">metronidazole</a> and <a href="/facts/Fenbendazole/3xmx89KD">fenbendazole</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:211" href="#fn:211">211</a>
It is extensively used for ruminant livestock in <a href="/facts/Latin_America/Qmx9Jx2a">Latin America</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:212" href="#fn:212">212</a> It is marketed for this purpose by Zoetis (formerly Pfizer Animal Health) in numerous countries (including the United States and Canada) as Valbazen in oral suspension and paste formulations;<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:213" href="#fn:213">213</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:214" href="#fn:214">214</a> by Interchemie in the Netherlands and elsewhere as Albenol-100; by Channelle Animal Health Ltd. in the United Kingdom as Albex; and by Ravensdown in New Zealand (as Albendazole). Although most formulations are administered orally, Ricomax (ricobendazole, or albendazole sulfoxide) is administered by subcutaneous injection.
Albendazole has greater bioavailability in ruminants: some albendazole sulfoxide, when released back into the rumen, is reduced to albendazole by the resident microbiota, with a preference of the (+) enantiomer being the substrate.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:215" href="#fn:215">215</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:216" href="#fn:216">216</a> Cats and dogs, having no rumen reservoir, sometimes need higher or more frequent doses as compared to ruminants. In dogs, albendazole sulfoxide is detectable in the plasma for less than 12 hours, but in sheep and goats, it remains at measurable levels for around three days.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:217" href="#fn:217">217</a>

<h3>Meat</h3>

The limitations in early pregnancy are due to a limited period during which teratogenic effects may occur. Summarized research data relating to the durations of these preslaughter and early pregnancy periods when albendazole should not be administered are found in US FDA NADA 110-048 (cattle) and 140-934 (sheep). Some data and inferences regarding goats are found in US FDA Supplemental NADA 110-048 (approved 24 January 2008).
Maximum residue limits (MRLs) for albendazole in food, adopted by the FAO/WHO <a href="/facts/Codex_Alimentarius/tGogRU8m">Codex Alimentarius</a> in 1993, are 5000, 5000, 100, and 100 micrograms per kilogram of body weight (μg/kg) for kidney, liver, fat, and muscle, respectively, and 100 μg/L for milk. For analysis purposes, MRLs of various nations may pertain to concentration of a marker substance which has been correlated with concentrations of the administered substance and its metabolized products. For example, in Canada, the marker substance specified by Health Canada is albendazole-2-aminosulfone, for which the MRL in liver of cattle is 200 μg/kg.
There is a 27-day cattle <a href="/facts/Withdrawal_time/UNbCuIyd">withdrawal time</a> for meat.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:218" href="#fn:218">218</a>
