I think perhaps it's info that has just been passed along, but has no merit, as no one EVER has been able to answer this question that I've posted several times as to WHY it is recommended to take 40G of fat with each dose of Albendazole, Valbazen, etc.
I'm sure they don't give animals a ton of fat when administering anti parasitic drugs.
So, unless somewhere can prove otherwise, I will think it's just a bunch of hooey.
Prove me wrong!
Absorption and Metabolism
Albendazole is poorly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract due to its low aqueous solubility. Albendazole concentrations are negligible or undetectable in plasma as it is rapidly converted to the sulfoxide metabolite prior to reaching the systemic circulation. The systemic anthelmintic activity has been attributed to the primary metabolite, albendazole sulfoxide. Oral bioavailability appears to be enhanced when albendazole is coadministered with a fatty meal (estimated fat content 40 g) as evidenced by higher (up to 5-fold on average) plasma concentrations of albendazole sulfoxide as compared to the fasted state.
