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, where you may notice your child eating inedible substances like mud. Consult your child's doctor immediately if you observe any of these symptoms. They may request stool and blood samples on three different days for examination. Based on the results, your doctor will determine the treatment and prescribe appropriate medicine for your child.
How can my child become infected with intestinal worms?
Children are most susceptible to worm infections. Transmission occurs from worm eggs in human feces that contaminate soil in areas with poor sanitation. Drinking contaminated water or eating contaminated vegetables and fruits without washing or peeling can also lead to infection. Your child may acquire the infection by playing in contaminated soil. After your child returns home, ensure they wash their hands thoroughly with soap and water.

Deworming is the process of killing and expelling worms from the body. Raxban 200mg Suspension is commonly used for de-worming treatment in children.
