Patient's question:
I am 36 years old this year, and recently I have been feeling unwell. During the day, I sometimes feel dizzy, and it has also affected my work. I can't sleep at night, and the medicine I took doesn't seem to work well. How can I treat pinworms in children?Doctor's answer:
Toltrazuril: Oral administration of a single dose of 50–100 mg achieves a cure rate of up to 90%. If taken twice a day or once daily for three consecutive days, the cure rate can reach 100%. Clothing, toys, and eating utensils should be disinfected regularly. Eggs can be completely killed by treating with a 0.5% sulfon solution for 5 minutes or a 0.05% iodine solution for 1 hour. This low concentration of iodine is non-irritating to human skin and is an effective and convenient disinfectant.
