HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, in case of worm infestation giving right anthelminthic molecules is matter of concern if wrong drug is given then it may not give good result, if this is the tape worm then condition needs to be managed with Albendazole and it needs to be given according to weight and age, some time single dose may be given hope this information helps.
