Hi.Thanks for writing on HCM. Neurocysticercosis cannot be totally cure.Hope you have completed the course of treatment (albendazole) previously.Oxetol controls your fits and has to be taken as long as your child has the episode.Common side effects include dizziness, drowsiness, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, headache, trouble sleeping, acne, dry mouth, or constipation.Sneezing is not caused by Oxetol but if it is related with redness troublesome I were to examine before changing the drug.Hope this answers your query.
