Etrax Tablet contains Levamisole Hydrochloride 40 mg, a potent anthelmintic and immunomodulatory agent used to treat intestinal worm infections and enhance the immune system. Levamisole works by paralyzing parasitic worms, allowing them to be expelled naturally, and by stimulating immune responses to improve the body’s ability to fight infections. The tablet form provides convenient and precise dosing for both adults and children.
