How old can a child be to take deworming medicine?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Generally, deworming treatment is recommended after the age of 2. Before the age of 2, it is unlikely to be infected with parasites. If deworming is necessary, it is best to choose Mebendazole. Under normal circumstances, deworming once a year is sufficient. Autumn is the best time. It is best to take the medication before bed.
