Applications. Or where it is used
Ricobendazole is a methylcarbamate benzimidazole that has anthelmintic properties on a broad spectrum of pathogens. Ricodendazole is a metabolite of albendazole. There have been reports of it inducing apoptosis in human cancer cell line HT-29, possibly by arresting the cell cycle at G2/M.
Dosage of usage
It is a broad-spectrum anthelmintic effective against roundworms, tapeworms, and flukes (e.g. adults of Fasciola hepatica). Parasites external to the body are completely unaffected by it. It is the only benzimidazole that can be injected, as well as drenched. Many countries (e.g. Latin America) use it extensively, but it is rare in other regions. A rare case of pet or horse use exists.
