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. Bendicare 200mg Oral 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.

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 of worm infection is pica in which you may notice your child eating inedible substances such as mud. Consult your child's doctor immediately if you observe any of these symptoms. The doctor may ask for stool and blood samples on 3 different days for examination. Based on the report, the doctor will decide on treatment and prescribe medication for your child.
How can my child get infected with intestinal worms?
Children are most susceptible to infection. The infection is spread by intestinal worm eggs present in human feces contaminating soil in areas with poor sanitation. Transmission can also occur through drinking contaminated water or eating unwashed fruits and vegetables. Finally, playing in contaminated soil where worms reside can contribute to infection when the child returns home.
What is deworming?
Deworming is the process of killing and expelling intestinal worms from the body. Bendicare 200mg Oral Suspension is commonly used for deworming treatment in children.
