Key Information
Short Description
Aldezole 200mg Suspension is a medication used to treat parasitic worm infections in children.
Dosage Form
Suspension
Introduction
Aldezole 200mg Suspension is effective against a range of parasitic worm infections in children. It restrains the worms from absorbing the body's essential nutrients, causing them to lose their energy and leading to their eventual death. The dead worms are then removed from your child's body through the stool.
Directions for Use
Give this medicine to your child with a fat-containing food such as milk as it enables better absorption in the body. Follow the prescribed dosage strictly. In case your child is prescribed to take this medicine for a few days, make sure to complete the dosage as stopping abruptly may lead to re-infection.
How it works
Worms enter inside your child's body when your child eats or drinks something that's infected with a worm or its eggs. Once inside the body, these worms get attached to the inner walls of the intestines and can even enter other body organs. Aldezole 200mg Suspension works by keeping the worms from absorbing sugar (glucose), thereby depleting their energy level. This causes the worms to die, thereby treating your child's infection.
Quick Tips
Give this medicine to your child with a fat-containing food such as milk as it enables better absorption in the body. Follow the prescribed dosage strictly. Make sure to complete the dosage as stopping abruptly may lead to re-infection. Worm infections are easily spread between family members. Your doctor may recommend treatment for all family members on the same day, whether or not they have any symptoms of infection. Some self-care measures: Do not give raw or undercooked food to your child. Instead, give a balanced diet containing herbs, fruits, and spices of therapeutic value. Encourage your child to wash their hands with soap and water every time they use the toilet as that will help prevent cross-infection. Trim your child's nails frequently to disable any source of worm infection. Maintain a neat space and hygiene around your child.

Frequently asked questions
How can I know if my child has a worm infection?
If your child complains of an itchy bottom (rectal area), difficulty sitting, fatigue, and restless sleep due to anal itching or persistent stomach pain with loss of appetite or frequent indigestion, it might indicate a worm infestation. Another sign is pica, in which you may notice your child eating inedible substances like mud. Seek immediate medical advice from your child's doctor if you observe any of these symptoms. A doctor may need stool and blood samples from your child on three different days for examination. Based on the reports received, the doctor will determine the treatment plan and prescribe your child with medication.
How can my child become infected with intestinal worms?
Children are most susceptible to worm infections. The infection spreads from roundworm eggs present in human feces, which contaminate soil in areas lacking proper sanitation. Transmission may occur by drinking contaminated water or by consuming fruits and vegetables without washing or peeling. Your child might also get infected while playing in the contaminated soil. When your child returns home after playing, ensure they clean up using soap and water.
What does deworming mean?
Deworming is the process of killing and expelling worms from the body. Aldezole 200mg Suspension is commonly used for deworming treatment in children.
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Aldezole 200mg Suspension?
You can give your child pain relievers and fever reducers unless your doctor instructs otherwise. However, certain medications should not be combined with Aldezole 200mg Suspension. To prevent any adverse reactions, it's essential to discuss potential drug interactions with your child’s doctor before administering any other medicines.
What is the best time to give Aldezole 200mg Suspension to my child?

Who should not take Aldezole 200mg Suspension?

Signs of an allergic reaction may include skin rashes, shortness of breath, and swelling of the face or tongue. Before administering this medicine, inform your child's doctor about all their medical conditions and any other medicines they are taking for other health concerns. This is crucial to avoid potential complications.
