Mebendazole Disease Interactions
There is 1 disease interaction with mebendazole.
Mebendazole (applies to mebendazole) liver disease
Moderate Potential Hazard, Low plausibility.
Although mebendazole is poorly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract (only 2% to 10% of a dose is absorbed systemically), absorbed drug is primarily metabolized by the liver. Therapy with mebendazole should be administered cautiously in patients with liver disease. Liver function tests should be monitored during extended use or high-dose therapy, since elevation of serum transaminases (AST, ALT) and GGT, as well as rare cases of hepatitis, have been reported during prolonged therapy and at dosages substantially above those normally recommended.
