Hi dear ! I am happy to see you here and I can well understand your health concerns. But I assure you that it will be over shortly. So don't worry about that.
Vermox (mebendazole) has been discontinued in USA. A lot of other generics are used nowadays. The symptoms you are facing maybe the side effects of the drug.
If you are in unbearable disturbance and come to me as a patient I should have changed the medicine with some better suited to you. Consult your physician for the concerns and ask him to prescribe an alternative.
I hope this helped you today. kindly give me a feedback, and if any doubts, feel free to consult me again. Thanks for using HealthCare Magic.
