Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted your history of believing that you have pinworm infestation at the age of 75 and you want to take Reese's Pinworm medication. You are already taking Celebrex, water pill, BP pill, Baby Aspirin and vitamins and wants to know whether Reese's Pinworm medication can make you sick.
My thoughts:
IOn a normal way this should not happen.
But the old adage goes: anything under the sun including the sun can cause allergy. Hence take the medicine and be prepared to have additional medication if required.
Stop worrying as these medications are no known such interactions or reactions.
You could have sent your stool sample for 3 consecutive days for analysis.
I find this answer helpful
