Raxban-L Tablet is used to treat parasitic worm infections. It contains albendazole and levamisole. Albendazole inhibits tubulin polymerization, causing metabolic disruption and energy depletion in the parasite, leading to immobilization. Levamisole suppresses the worm's muscle's enzyme activity, leading to paralysis and death; this eventually leads to the death of susceptible helminths and thus prevents the growth of parasitic infections.
