How do children take intestinal worm clearing medicine?

Enteroworm clearing is a drug that can help the human body clear intestinal parasites. Of course, the chances of adults taking it are still very low. This drug is mainly for children. After all, children's bodies are still in a weak stage, and they do not pay attention to their food hygiene. They will even pick up food that falls on the ground and eat it without adults noticing, which provides opportunities for many parasites to parasitize. So what are the methods to take for eating intestinal worm clearing?

1. For patients with single or mixed infections caused by roundworms, pinworms, whipworms, hookworms, etc., adults and children over 2 years old only need to take 2 tablets (400

mg). For patients with stercoralis or red nematodes, take 2 tablets a day on an empty stomach in the morning for three consecutive days. Generally, the disease can be completely eliminated in two days.

1. A small number of cases have digestive tract symptoms such as dry mouth, fatigue, drowsiness, dizziness, headache, nausea, and upper abdominal discomfort. However, they are all mild and can be relieved on their own without treatment.

2. In the treatment of cysticercosis, especially brain cysticercosis, it is mainly related to the release of foreign proteins due to the death of cysticercosis, which is more common after taking the medicine.

It occurs within 2 to 7 days, and symptoms such as headache, fever, rash, muscle aches, visual impairment, and epileptic seizures occur. Appropriate measures must be taken (application of adrenal cortex hormones, intracranial pressure reduction, anti-epileptic treatment, etc.).

3. In the treatment of cysticercosis and echinococcosis, due to the large dosage and long course of treatment, elevated alanine aminotransferase may occur, which usually gradually returns to normal after drug discontinuation.

Anthelmintics can be taken two hours after a meal or before going to bed at night. At this time, the gastrointestinal tract has been basically emptied, and the medicine is in full contact with the insect body, which can enhance the insecticidal effect.

The drug dosage should be appropriate

If the dosage is insufficient, the worms are not paralyzed and they are stimulated by the drugs to migrate, which can easily cause abdominal pain, intestinal obstruction, and biliary ascariasis, and they cannot be expelled.

Excessive dosage can cause poisoning and damage the liver.

Therefore, avoid taking anthelmintics frequently or in excess. Antiparasitic drugs should be used with caution or prohibited for children with impaired liver and kidney function, weak spleen and stomach, and acute fever.
