Uses

Parasitic infections [Strongyloidiasis (a threadworm infection), onchocerciasis (a worm infection)]

Medicinal Benefits

Ascapil Mono Tablet is an anti-parasitic medication. It can kill the parasites by acting on the nervous system. It starves the worms by inducing paralysis, consequently leading them to death. In the case of strongyloidiasis, it kills the parasites present in the intestine, completely treating the infection. In the case of onchocerciasis, it can only control the infection as it can kill the developing worms but not the adult worms.
