Introduction
Albeges Suspension is a medication used to treat various parasitic worm infections in children. It works by preventing the worms from absorbing essential nutrients, leading to their death and eventual removal from the body through stool. This medication is crucial for managing worm infections, which can spread easily among family members. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and complete the treatment course to prevent re-infection. While generally safe, it is essential to monitor for any signs of allergic reactions or liver problems and consult a doctor if such symptoms occur.
Directions for Use
Give this medicine to your child with a fat-containing food such as milk to enable better absorption. Follow the prescribed dosage strictly and complete the treatment course to prevent re-infection.
How it works
Albeges Suspension works by preventing the worms from absorbing sugar (glucose), thereby depleting their energy levels. This causes the worms to die, effectively treating the infection.
Quick Tips

Worm infections can spread easily; consider treatment for all family members. Encourage handwashing with soap and water to prevent cross-infection.

Frequently asked questions
What are the signs and symptoms of a worm infection in children?
If your child experiences an itchy bottom (rectal area), difficulty sitting, fatigue, restless sleep due to anal itching, persistent stomach pain with loss of appetite or frequent indigestion, or engages in pica by eating non-edible substances like mud, it may indicate a worm infestation. Consult your child's doctor immediately if you notice any of these symptoms. The doctor may request stool and blood samples on three different days for examination to determine the course of treatment.
How can children become infected with intestinal worms?
Children are typically most susceptible to infection. The eggs of worms present in human feces that contaminate soil in areas with poor sanitation can be transmitted through various means, including drinking contaminated water, eating unclean vegetables and fruits without proper washing or peeling, or playing in soil contaminated with worm eggs. To prevent infection, ensure your child cleans up thoroughly with soap and water after playing outside.

Deworming refers to the elimination of worms from the body through treatment. Albeges Suspension is a commonly used medication for deworming children.
