If you suspect you have a roundworm infection, what should you do?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I've been having digestive issues recently, and I suspect it might be a tapeworm infection. So, I'd like to take some deworming medication. However, I don't really understand how to take deworming medication—can I take it anytime? I'd like to get some advice from you.

Doctor's answer:

Medication cannot be taken arbitrarily. If you suspect intestinal parasites, you can decide to take albendazole. Generally speaking, according to the instructions, taking it once is sufficient. However, it is still best to first go to the hospital for testing, and only take it if there is an infection. Additionally, in daily life, patients should balance their nutritional intake, engage in aerobic exercises to exercise their bodies, and maintain a cheerful mood to enhance their physical fitness and accelerate recovery speed.
