Unicarbazan Forte Tablet 10's

Unicarbazan Forte Tablet belongs to a group of medicines called 'antiparasitic' used to treat particular worm or parasitic infections. Parasitism or parasitic infection is a condition in which one organism (the parasite) causes harm to its host or lives at the host's expense in some way. Millions of individuals are afflicted by parasites, which cause enormous suffering and death.

Unicarbazan Forte Tablet consists of two medicines: Diethylcarbamazine Citrate (antiparasitic) and Chlorpheniramine Maleate (antihistamines). Diethylcarbamazine Citrate paralyzes the parasitic worms by stopping them from interacting with the host cell, thereby killing it. On the other hand, Chlorpheniramine Maleate reduces the allergy symptoms characterized by increased white blood cells (eosinophils), sneezing, runny nose and watery eyes. Thus, Unicarbazan Forte Tablet prevents the growth of worms in the human body by killing microfilariae and some of the adult worms in the human intestine and reducing allergic symptoms caused by parasitic worms.
