The antiparasitic drug Albendazole for humans usually takes effect a few hours after consumption. The type and intensity of the parasite infection determine how effective it is. Observable relief for common intestinal worms, such roundworms or hookworms, might happen in one to three days. Treatment for more serious illnesses, such as hydatid disease or neurocysticercosis, can take weeks or even months. Taking albendazole with a fatty meal improves its absorption and makes it most effective. To make sure the infection is completely eradicated and to keep an eye out for any possible side effects, routine follow-up visits with a healthcare professional are crucial.
