Levamisole, the active levo-isomer of tetramisole, acts by paralyzing susceptible intestinal worms, which are then expelled naturally from the body. In addition to its anthelmintic properties, Levamisole has been shown to enhance cellular immune responses in humans.
Biotrex is administered as a single oral dose, preferably after a light meal.

|---|---|
| 1–4 years | 1 tablet or 5 mL syrup |
| 5–15 years | 2 tablets or 10 mL syrup |
| 16 years and above | 3 tablets or 15 mL syrup |
In cases of severe hookworm infection, a second standard dose may be given either one or seven days after the initial treatment, depending on clinical judgment.
