HI Thank for asking to HCM I really appreciate your concern in my opinion it is important to confirm the infestation first and then the species of parasite, then and then you need to go for treatment, for your information if this is "Ascariasis" then any antihelminthic drug in single dose would give best result, but first get it confirm it and the best way is get done the stool examination, hope this information helps you, have nice day
