It is very useful in conditions such as hydatid disease, giardiasis, filariasis, trichuriasis, neurocysticercosis, pinworm disease, and ascariasis, among others. The albendazole drug is taken orally. The albendazole market is majorly driven by key factors, including an increased incidences of worm infestations, specifically in the rural and developing areas. In addition to that, the lack of clean drinking water, hygiene, and absence of permitted sanitation in certain areas are the major reasons for the increasing number of parasitic worms which are eventually increasing the requirement of albendazole worldwide. On the other hand, the adverse impacts of the albendazole drugs such as nausea, headache, and bone marrow suppression, among others, are restricting the albendazole market growth.
