Fenbendazole is a well-recognized dewormer in veterinary medicine, but its use in humans is neither FDA-approved nor medically endorsed outside of veterinary contexts. Reports of misuse—especially for treating serious diseases like cancer—have led to serious and sometimes fatal consequences.

Fenbendazole is a broad-spectrum benzimidazole anthelmintic (anti-worm) agent primarily approved for veterinary use. It effectively targets gastrointestinal parasites such as roundworms, hookworms, whipworms, pinworms, Strongyloides, and some tapeworms in animals like dogs, cats, horses, cattle, and more.
While fenbendazole tablets are sometimes marketed as human OTC products, they remain unapproved by the FDA for human use.
Veterinary medicine: Used widely to treat intestinal parasitic infections across multiple animal species, including dogs, cats, horses, cattle, sheep, and more.
Human use: According to one health information source, it may be used (off-label) to address human infections like schistosomiasis, amoebiasis, liver abscess, diarrhea, and filariasis—but again, this is not FDA-approved and should only be considered under strict medical guidance.
For human-oriented formulations (where available under unapproved drug labels):
The tablet is typically 150 mg, scored, oval-shaped
Veterinary dosing varies by species and animal weight. For example, small pets might receive 0.5–4 tablets per dose depending on weight, administered daily for treatment or monthly for prevention
In animals: Generally safe when used as directed; though some may experience mild gastrointestinal upset. Use in pregnant animals is discouraged unless under veterinary supervision.
In humans: Reported side effects include nausea, vomiting, headache, abdominal pain, dizziness, vertigo, abnormal liver function test results, fever, and hair loss.
Major risk: There have been fatal human cases linked to self-medication with veterinary fenbendazole for unproven cancer treatment claims—including one recent death due to severe liver and kidney failure.
Fenbendazole is a well-recognized dewormer in veterinary medicine, but its use in humans is neither FDA-approved nor medically endorsed outside of veterinary contexts. Reports of misuse—especially for treating serious diseases like cancer—have led to serious and sometimes fatal consequences.
If you’re considering any off-label use for humans, please consult a qualified healthcare provider to weigh the risks and explore safer alternatives.
