How To Get Rid Of Intestinal Worms?

i have intestinal worms since few weeks. I am extremely irritated about it. I have itches around my rectum every now and then, heavy sugar cravings and have diarrhea most of the time. I have taken albendazole tablet 400mg two weeks ago but of no use. I read in the internet that they kill the parasite and the female parasite leaves all her eggs on the surface of intestine. I read about invermectin but I am afraid to take it without the doctors advice as it can mess with the CNS.I am irritated because of this condition most of the day. I am pretty unsure what to do and need help despirately. Please help!!

Hi,
Many a time second course of Albendazole to eradicate worms from GI tract.
Keep your nails well cut as grown nails carry worms ova and gives infection again.
Give anti worm treatment to your close members who are also might get this infection.
Keep clothes clean and avoid using your towel by others.
Ok and take care.
