Always follow your doctor’s instructions. The typical dose for adults and children over 2 years old treating pinworm or roundworm is one tablet (500mg mebendazole) once. For children under 2 years, consult a doctor for specific dosage advice.
For whipworm infections, a single dose may suffice, but your doctor might prescribe a repeat dose after 3 weeks.
Take the tablet whole with a drink of water. You can take Vermox with or without food. If you vomit within 30 minutes of taking the tablet, consult your doctor about taking another.
Complete the entire course of treatment as directed, even if symptoms improve quickly. This helps ensure the parasites are eliminated.
If you have any questions or concerns about your dosage or the administration of Vermox, contact your doctor or pharmacist. They can provide personalized guidance based on your specific health needs.
Remember to maintain good hygiene practices to prevent reinfection. This includes regular handwashing, especially after using the toilet.
