Notes when using deworming medicine

Patients taking deworming drugs may experience some discomfort such as nausea. To reduce discomfort, patients should note the following.

When taking the medicine, you need to rest and do light activities. People with diseases caused by worms when taking deworming medicine must follow the instructions on how to use, dosage and duration of use as prescribed by medical staff.

Patients need to pay attention to their stool to know the results of using the bleach, in some cases, they need to use laxatives to increase the effectiveness. If there are unusual symptoms such as nausea, itching, insomnia, etc., they need to go to a medical facility for specific advice.

Every day, it is necessary to ensure adequate nutritional needs for patients by implementing a diet with enough calories, balancing the ingredients (rice, meat, fish, green vegetables, etc.) and ensuring hygiene. Change the way food is prepared, divide it into many meals. If after deworming, the patient is still tired and has pale skin, they need to go to a medical facility to be prescribed additional vitamins B, C, iron tablets, and folic acid by medical staff.

For people who have been dewormed, monitoring is still needed because when parasitic worms enter the human body, they not only live in the intestines, but also develop in many other internal organs.

Furthermore, periodic deworming every six months is only effective in eliminating intestinal worms, while parasites that move throughout the body are very difficult to destroy. Therefore, preventing worms and avoiding reinfection is very important.
